Seeing The Invisible Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 30, 2021

One has not really begun to live until he begins to look, not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen, for these alone are the things that last forever.

It was all a useless waste of money and effort. A returned missionary overheard him and asked him a ...read more

Down But Not Out!

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 3, 2018

When it comes to suffering, Paul calls us to forsake pity parties and glorify God. We can remember that Jesus shines through us, that our weaknesses glorify God, that we may be down but never out, and that our sufferings may bring eternal life to others.

Jesus said, “If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also” (John 15:20). We should expect no better treatment than that ...read more
