Did you know that only 15% of churches in America are healthy? Could God be asking us to change? If so, in what areas? How do we identify what God is wanting us to change?
An interesting article that I found. “Age changes things.” Who changed everything when I wasn’t looking? I’ve noticed lately that everything is farther away than it used to be. It’s even twice as far to the corner now, and they’ve added a hill! I’ve given up running for the bus; it leaves much ...read more

May the Lord bless their union and their lives. Jesus Himself believed in marriage. Listen to what He told the Pharisees ...read more

“Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near. John, to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from Him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are ...read more

The church should have an attitude -- the attitude of awe on one side, and gladness on the other -- with sincerity holding them in balance.
I bet you are like me, in that you have a list of things to DO. Call the plumber, call the insurance agent, go by the grocery store, call your Mom, pick up the Dry Cleaners… In the Second Chapter of Acts, there is a wonderful description of a list of things churches are supposed to do.
