     | 6,678 views

    What does God have to say about pleasure, anyway?

    Is His Pleasure the same as My Pleasure? Ps 147:11 The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.

    Contributed by Oladayo Oladosu on Jul 28, 2019
     | 3,594 views

    Depression is a complex and dangerous mental health condition that cuts across every facet of humanity and often seems so tacit in description and definitions.

And Saul’s servants said unto him, Behold now, an evil spirit from God troubleth thee. I Sam. 16: 14-15 (KJV) Depression is a complex and ...read more

    From Slavery to Royalty We do not like to talk about slavery. For the first 100 years of our nation, the institution of slavery left a dark scar on our country, one we are still healing from. While slavery was different in many ways during biblical times, Paul uses the imagery of a slave in ...read more

    Forget the old song that asks “how can it be wrong when it feels so right?” That’s unmitigated baloney. Your mind must rule your emotions, not vice-versa.

    Twenty-Sixth Sunday in Course 2023 Have you or anyone you know ever said that some fine or traffic ticket or concert ticket price or something else “isn’t fair”? I suspect that a show of hands would involve almost everyone who is here today. That cry, “it’s not fair!” is one of the most common ...read more
