God asked Abraham to lay down his Isaac. His story is an incredible picture of the Cross and how God loved us enough to surrender His Son, Jesus, for our sin. Do we love Him enough to surrender our Isaac today?

It has been said that Christians are like tea bags……they always do best when they get in hot water. In Genesis chapter 22, we find Abraham in the hottest water of his life as God tries his faith. The Bible teaches three key truths about trials in the life of a believer: 1) Trials come to ...read more

I Hope So!

Contributed by Larry Turner on Jan 21, 2014

Hope is described in the dictionary as a "feeling" that all will be well. But the hope found in the Bible is an "assurance" that all will be well.

"I Am Afflicted" Series

Contributed by Sean Harder on Feb 19, 2014
