Wilfulness is sin on a mission and Lot edged closer and closer. The world holds attractions for people, like the fishing spider that dangles a blob on the end of strands of web to allure its victims and pounces. Sodom was alluring Lot and about to pounce.

When God Doesn't Make Sense

Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Nov 19, 2022

Most of us don't want to admit it, but more often than not God's instructions don't make sense. That's because God is not a sense God, he is a faith God. The question is... What do you do when God doesn't make sense?

Let It Shine Series

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 24, 2022

We’re supposed to be light in the world, but not strobe lights or spotlights. We are meant to be little lights - but we are called on to shine. In so much darkness, that’s all that is needed.

When you were little, did you ever stick a flashlight in your mouth and turn it on? It looked pretty weird, didn’t it. For more weird, there was also a contest for who could make the most horrible grotesque face, you know, the kind that would cause your mother to warn you that if you didn’t ...read more
