    The Gift That Breaks Barriers

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 27, 2025
     | 59 views

    Tongues build up the church only through clarity and love. True evidence of the Spirit is Christlike character and mission-driven unity.

    Why This Matters Today There has never been a time in history when God’s people didn’t desperately need the Holy Spirit. We need Him the way lungs need oxygen, the way a branch needs the vine, the way a traveler needs the road home. Without Him, faith collapses under its own weight. Without Him, ...read more

     | 200 views

    Our society is filled with things like road rage, revenge hit lists, and senseless shootings. Can we really make a difference in our society? The answer is yes, and the difference that we can make begins with being examples of simple Christian kindness.

    Alba 10-12-2025 LOVE IS KIND I Corinthians 13:4 Some years ago the “Dear Abby” column printed this letter: “Dear Abby, My mother used to be very critical of other family members, but always behind their backs.

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 8, 2025
     | 102 views

    Farewell until we meet again. Today we think about the closing remarks in Peter’s first letter as we open up the final three verses. The end of a letter usually states the last important thoughts of the writer he wishes to convey to the readers. We look at that. May God bless us all.

    11. Message in 1 Peter – Number 11 – CLOSING THE LETTER WITH A FOND FAREWELL (1 Peter 5:12-14) [A]. AND A FOND FAREWELL It is sometimes claimed that a person’s last words are their most significant. At times there have been those bizarre incidents of reading out in public, a deceased’s ...read more

    Love Is Not Boastful Or Proud

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Nov 24, 2025
     | 67 views

    So instead of boasting, we can and should be thankful. Thankful that what God did at Calvary is enough for us. Thankful that the price Jesus paid for our sins was the right price. Thankful that when Jesus said it was finished, He meant it.

    Alba 11-23-2025 LOVE IS NOT BOASTFUL OR PROUD I Corinthians 13:4 According to a story in the Grand Rapids Press sometime ago, when foreign cars were new to the U.S., the owner of a small foreign car had begun to irritate his friends by bragging incessantly about his good gas mileage.

    Opie was cleaning things out of the garage and told the other boy that by doing that he was earning a 25 cent allowance. The other boy made fun of Opie saying he should get an allowance without any work. And if he didn't get what he wanted to start crying or have a fit.

    Love Does Not Seek Its Own

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Dec 9, 2025
     | 67 views

    These days, a lot of people are demanding their “rights” and live in such a way as to trample the rights of others. There are those who are always thinking of what life owes them. But there are others who never forget what they owe to life.

    Alba 12-7-2025 LOVE DOES NOT SEEK ITS OWN I Corinthians 13:5 I Corinthians 13 continues to describe what love is not. It says in verse five that love, “does not seek its own”.

    On this fourth Sunday of Advent, we pause to reflect on the theme of Love—not a vague, sentimental emotion, not the love the world markets in song or commerce—but the love of God that changes everything.

    Love Is Not Easily Provoked

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Dec 15, 2025
     | 58 views

    Depending on what Bible version you have, First Corinthians chapter 13 verse 5 says this about love: “Love is not provoked”, “isn't irritable”, “is not easily angered”, “isn't quick-tempered”. Is it possible to control your anger, your irritable response even when provoked? Sure it is.

    Alba 12-24-2025 LOVE IS NOT EASILY PROVOKED I Corinthians 13:5 There was an advertisement in the paper: WEDDING DRESS FOR SALE, NEVER WORN. WILL TRADE FOR A .38 CALIBER PISTOL.
