     | 1,358 views

    The Christian Church is all about people. Little people, big people, tall people, short people, just any kind of people - but we’re all on the same adventure called “Heaven Bound.” The adventure begins when we allow Jesus Christ to become our Savior. The days are filled with wonder as we experience ...read more

    NEVER MIND ME A good many years ago, during a Massachusetts winter, a brother and sister were walking on the ice. He was 9 and she was 11. They hit a thin patch and fell through. Kicking to the surface, they yelled for help. Summoned by their screams, a man came running, dived into the icy water ...read more

  • One Way To Win: Bet It All

    Contributed by Mark Eberly on May 12, 2009
     | 1,999 views

    ONE WAY TO WIN: BET IT ALL God has the answers that we need. I often see people not trusting in God and truly seeking His face. Worshiping with others and seeking out the answers that we are looking for is often done superficially. We show up once or twice and wonder why "church" doesn't seem to ...read more

    MAYBE GOD WANTS US TO SAY WOW Last week a young man asked me why God made sharks. I could have come up with many scientific answers, but again the point of all this is to give God glory, so I finally answered "Maybe sometimes God just wants us to say wow." I used to wonder why God made mosquitoes ...read more

    Atheist Thankful for a Beautiful Morning One morning a woman who was a known atheist stepped out of her home on the hillside and was taken back by what a beautiful morning it was.

    Have we held the line? Should those who have died rest easy because we are holding to the values that they were willing to give their lives for? Consider this timeline; "in 1954 churches began to grow silent; by 1963 the Bible and prayer were removed from public schools; by 1965 the sexual ...read more

    I was reading a blog about “who should get the credit” and I wonder if any of you have some of these same ideas. One person wrote; “you know this phony god of yours has it good, it gets all the credit for everything good, and man gets all the credit for everything bad ... the best of both worlds”. ...read more

    On 10th May 2003, through the post I received six letters concerning my claim for Tax Credits - much to my annoyance, since I made my application quite some time before. Back in 2003 the Tax Credit Office were singled out for a lot of criticism, and every day there seemed to be a story of a ...read more

    LOOKS GREAT, BUT WHAT DOES IT DO? I once read about a certain Mr. Wahlstrom who purchased an old bombsight and took it apart to see what made it work. As he began to put it back together, he decided to add to it some spare parts he had from other projects. Over time, friends and neighbors took an ...read more

    BORN IN A BARN Have you ever heard it said to you: "Were you born in a barn?" Or maybe this variation -- "You weren't born in a barn -- shut the door!" I tell ya what; I use to hear that said a lot growing up -- either referring to that I had left the door open, or that my room was becoming ...read more

    THE COLOR OF COLORS For 51 years Bob Edens was blind. He couldn’t see a thing. His world was a black hall of sounds and smells. He felt his way through five decades of darkness. And then, he could see. A skilled surgeon performed a complicated operation and, for the first time, Bob Edens had ...read more

    THE BLACK AND WHITE BOXES I have in my hands two boxes which God gave me to hold. He said, "Put all your sorrows in the black, and all your joys in the white." I heeded His words, and in the two box both my joys and sorrows I stored. But though the white became heavier each day, the black ...read more

     | 3,869 views

    "SO WHAT?" SOCIETY When I talk about this it might seem rather funny to you or odd, because people don’t worry or care about such things today. Recent surveys in 2011 sum it up pretty well. • 44% told the 2011 Baylor University Religion Survey they spend no time seeking "eternal wisdom," and 19% ...read more
