    Contributed by Gregory Fisher on Sep 14, 2017
     | 8,307 views

    Men in general…and, Christian men in particular…have a need to look good. We need to appear to be in control. But, in truth we are very much like ducks gliding along on a pond…we look serene…and calm…but, underneath we are paddling like mad.

    However you look at this story, the emphasis always appears to Thomas or us doubting, suggesting that we lack faith. It is not all to do with us; God has a role in our faith and we must let him work through us. We just cannot carry that burden alone.

    “He has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of Himself. Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgement, so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people” Hebrews 9:26-2

    Theme: Watch and pray while you wait for the Lord Text: 1 Kings 17:8-16; Heb. 9:24-28; Mark 12:38-44 “Who can I trust?” is a question that is often asked by all of us. This is simply because your whole life depends on it. What makes this question even more difficult is that many people ...read more

    While John was at the peak of his career, Jesus appeared on the scene and the crowds, who had once streamed out of the villages to follow John, began to follow Jesus instead. As John watched them go, his only response was, “He must become greater, I must

    I know I need to change, I am painfully aware of the chasm between what I am in Christ and how I appear to be but all of my diligent effort actually takes me in the opposite direction. Rules do not produce obedient hearts; rules breed rebellion.

     | 13,179 views

    Our Lord appoints each of His followers to a particular task. Though the task may appear difficult, it is common that we Christians attempt to turn His command by asking what He is doing in the life of another. We need to learn to focus on His work in our own life.

    “[Jesus said] ‘Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were young, you used to dress yourself and walk wherever you wanted, but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you and carry you where you do not want to go.’ (This he said to show by what kind of death he was ...read more

    Each Christian will face battles throughout the life they are called to live. There will not be one battle, but each of us will face multiple battles, and the situations we face may appear overwhelming as we face our own giants. But God will send a deliverer just when we need that deliverer most.

    “There was war again between the Philistines and Israel, and David went down together with his servants, and they fought against the Philistines. And David grew weary.

    When Our Joy Is Complete

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Feb 19, 2026
     | 90 views

    Joy comes to us in many different ways. To the world it appears only when the pleasures of life are received, not when things do not go as we would expect or like. To the true Christian, this is the opposite of how our joy can be complete. How does our joy become complete?

    Is your joy overflowing? Are the happenings of each day filling your heart with an overabundance of joy, peace and love? The answers to these questions are relative to how you perceive each day. As the events of the day unfold, many recognize the bitterness and pain each event causes. Our hearts ...read more
