    Paul wanted the believers in Corinth to know and understand that although they were 'free' in Christ it was not a license to seek out their own desires. He gives 4 examples of how that fails miserably!

But because David was a warrior who had shed blood God would not allow him to build the temple. Instead David’s son, Solomon would have that privilege. Although David would not ...read more

    A woman who was despised by the Jews and the Samaritans finds living water at the well on a hot afternoon. And she becomes an evangelist for the Lord. Intriguing and example-setting yet today for all of us.

    Today, let’s talk about another woman who was saved by the power of Jesus Christ; a woman we have all referred to as “The Woman at the Well.” We find her story in the 4th chapter of the book of JOHN. As we read the Gospels, we see that Jesus’ approach to proclaiming the Good News was decidedly ...read more

    The way David responded to God's correction and the new Word from the Lord is a good example to follow for any Christian. For David could then be over whelmed by a sense of God's grace & goodness.

    2 SAMUEL 7: 18-29 [The Life of David] BROKEN DREAMS RESTORED [Psalm 73:25-28] While David's proposal has been turned aside, God's acceptance of David's desire is not denied.
