God’s True Light Series

Contributed by Scott Turansky on Nov 16, 2022

Let the truth of the true light set you free. Living in lies, living in darkness is no way to live. In fact, it's not living at all. The freedom of the true light is the freedom from sin.

Augustine in his confession, writes about as a young man he was intending to travel to Rome. His mother was against it and prayed against it. She prayed earnestly that he might be prevented from going. Her reason being that she feared what effect the temptation of sin in the depravity of that big ...read more

Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 30, 2014

Have you ever been in a relationship with someone and it seemed like you could not please them? That’s somewhat true of God, because if you try on the basis of your own behavior to earn God’s approval or his glory, you’ll miss the target every time.

Working In God’s Vineyard Series

Contributed by Tesh Njokanma on Jun 5, 2018

When God tells you to go and work in His vineyard, He is telling you less of self more of God’s needs. He is telling you get out of your comfort zone, go and reach out to others, go and minister to others.
