God never forsakes his own.

Daniel’s comfort lieth in understanding God’s ...read more

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Apr 13, 2023

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

There is not telling as to the extraordinary outcomes when the church comes together to pray. The only way we can assure in a revival, and the powerful move of the Holy Spirit is through prayer.

They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to proclaim God's message with boldness.”(GNB) As the believers in the early church met together for prayer there was a mighty manifestation of ...read more

The Devil Is A Boring Preacher

Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 23, 2009

The message of the preacher blessed by God will disturb the casual, even as it glorifies the Master. Contrary to every expectation, the message presented by the servants of the devil is boring, generating no excitement and no reaction.

“When they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews. And Paul went in, as was his custom, and on three Sabbath days he reasoned with them from the Scriptures, explaining and proving that it was necessary for the Christ to ...read more

Thinking of worship through examining Jesus' singing of the hymn before His Passion.
