    The moment is now. Decision time. Will you obey God? That is the choice that we face on a daily basis. Will I obey Gods word today, or will I go about life on my own?

What is impressive from studying Paul and Silas and Timothy is their confidence and ...read more

He boldly preached the Gospel to the Thessalonians in spite of suffering and mistreatment. First Thessalonians 2:1-8 is a model for all Christians to follow, especially when they are ...read more
