Its not the Taj Mahal, its not the Great Wall of China, its not the story of Joan of Ark, its not Shaladin, but its JESUS. THE GREATEST STORY OF THEM ALL

God is in Control
When I hear the words of the song; ‘Mary did you know’ sang by Mark Lawry, I often wonder about Mary Magdalene and her story. I wonder as a musician if I could rearrange the words of the song to fit this Mary and her encounter with our Lord and Saviour. As I read and research into it ...read more

Contributed on Aug 18, 2011
God is so merciful that he is willing to forgive us even if we have fallen deeper to the point that we think that no one can save us.
God Is Merciful Robert F Collins When I grew up in the church, I remember having a basic understanding of what Christians believe and what I thought Christianity is all about: basically, that Jesus is the Son of God, that he died for us, and that he rose from the dead. But I did not understand ...read more

11. Who Is Your God?
Contributed on Jan 20, 2012
There is a great confusion about who God is. Is the Elohim God the same as YHWH?
Who is Your God? Someone once said that our view of God determines who we are.

So if God is the centre of our life and work, what does that make us? We have all ...read more
