    In our study tonight Jesus is drawing to a close His teaching for His disciples. The hour is at hand and His arrest is in the very near future! The disciples have a sense that something is going on, but their spiritual perception is dim and limited.

And when you have turned again, strengthen your brothers." 33 Peter said to Him, "Lord, I am ready to go with You both to prison and to death." 34 ...read more

    To share with the listener a couple of thoughts on how we can clothe ourselves with Love.

    Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day! It’s a day in which we celebrate Love. It’s a day that for many people is the only time of the year that they convey their love to another. It’s a day that will mainly be celebrated between two people, two sweethearts. I often wonder why so many ...read more
