    We know the goal, but we keep running off down "rabbit trails." We keep letting ourselves be distracted away from the important things.

    Bill Bright tells the story of a farmer who told his wife he was going out to plow the "south forty." He got off to an early start so he could oil the tractor. He needed more oil, so he went to the shop to get it. On the way to the shop he noticed the pigs weren’t fed. So he proceeded to the corn ...read more

    In John 3:1-2, the apostle tells his readers that the world doesn’t know them, and therefore they won’t recognize the God they believe in. Based upon this, we as the body of Christ need to realize and not be suprised that when we share the gospel, it is o

    Of all the things scripture expresses concern about, it is "deception" among God’s crown creation.

    Matthew, Mark and Luke record an interesting verbal interchange between Jesus and His disciples. It concerns the “end of days.” They asked Him, “tell us about the sign of the end.” Jesus’ initial response was almost ominous, “watch that no one deceive you”… Have you ever been deceived? How did ...read more
