A look at the life of King David, and what that might have to say to Christians today.

King Herod's Early Release Program Series

Contributed by Peter Loughman on Oct 11, 2009

No one, not a single person in this story expects Peter to be released. Not Herod, not the guards, not the people of the church, not even Peter himself. Still, God answers the prayer.

Our King Weeps At His Parade Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Apr 2, 2018

Jesus, in fulfilment of Zechariah 9:9-10. rides into Jerusalem and a massive parade starts. It seems that Jesus should be happy. The people are joyful and God is being praised. Yet in the middle of His parade Jesus weeps. Things are not as they seem.

What would you eat? I suspect a lot of us would choose a really lovely setting, perhaps over-looking the ...read more
