    Lydia's Journey

     | 1,674 views

    Imagining how and why Lydia moved from being a pagan to a god-fearer, and then to beecoming a follower of Jesus.

    This is the story of Lydia, the first woman pastor in the Christian church (at least as far as we know). And it almost never happened. You see, Paul and Silas hadn’t planned to go to Macedonia at all. They had hardly begun to scratch the surface of Asia Minor - that’s where present-day Turkey is. ...read more

Yet, some claim that women should not preach, teach, or hold leadership positions in the church. This ...read more

    The Church Of Thyatira: The Consequences Of Appeasing Jezebel

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 23, 2023
     | 1,138 views

    Thyatira was the smallest of the seven cities mentioned in Revelation, Chapters 2 and 3. It is also the city about which little is known. Yet, it is to this church that Jesus addresses His longest letter.

    Thyatira was founded by the Macedonian conqueror Alexander the Great some 300 years before the birth of Christ. The name Thyatira means "unceasing sacrifice". It more than likely received this name because it was a military "buffer city", located some 40 miles southeast of ...read more

    When people look at me, do they see what they expect, or someone that is "odd?" When I am so close to Jesus that my life reflects his actions and attitudes it causes people to ask, "Why are you like this?"
