MOM IS AMAZING
When I was small, I always thought my mother was omniscient because she knew where everything was. I’d say, "Mom, where are my mitts?" And she’d say, "They’re under the bed" just like that. When I looked, there they were.
As I grew older, I realized she wasn't omniscient; she just

Professor Andy McIntosh wrote, in regard to a literal Genesis: Genesis records in a matter of fact way that the world was created by a definite act of special creation by God. Consequently the truth of the whole Bible is at stake if we are not to believe it on its first few pages. As the little

Billy Graham told of an old drunk who gave up alcohol. Every day, on the way to work, he would hitch his horse by a saloon, walk to the door, take a big sniff, and say, “I don’t need this any more.” Billy said if he kept doing that, the day would come when, in a weak moment, he would walk back into

When I was a child, I was afraid of the dark.
I would go get in bed with my dad, and he would tell me a story, and I knew everything was okay. As long as I was with him, I knew nothing would harm me.
That is the way our heavenly Father wants us to feal about Him. He wants us to know that He is

BAD TASTE
Treating each other in graceless ways is like putting salt in another person's drink. You're sitting there, your friend goes to the bathroom, and while he's gone you pour salt into his soda. And when he takes a sip he gets a terrible taste in his mouth.
God says, "Don't do this
