    Many people read the Bible and read of Bible characters and stand in awe of what they could do and how they could live. We must never forget that people like Peter, were real people, with real problems, simply living their faith.

    Introduction Just about every kid has a period in their lives where they love superheroes. The kids idolize the superheroes ability to do the impossible, to fly, their incredible strength or their x-ray vision. When I was growing up, I loved superman. I wanted to be just like superman.

    The Bible describes two treasures that may be in the heart of man. What are they?

    INTRODUCTION Throughout the Bible the heart is referred to as something much more than simply an organ pumping blood. A careful study of the Word reveals that the heart is very important to becoming a Christian. We can believe in our minds and still be lost, but once a man believes in his heart ...read more

    There is a real story of Christmas. To the Bible characters who played an important role on that first Christmas day, it was not necessarily all peace and joy and love. If we were to analyze carefully their situations, we will agree that theirs was a sad

    God Loves Camping

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Oct 4, 2022
     | 1,760 views

    The best way to get to know God is by spending some alone time with Him. We see this is true for Bible characters who went "camping" and while they were alone, God met with them.

    Honestly, I don’t like camping too much. I’m away from the comforts of home, living on simple food, risking my life with wild animals around, etc. I’m not an outdoor-type person. But did you know that God loves camping? Here in Genesis 28, Jacob goes camping while on the way to his Uncle Laban’s ...read more

    God wants us to know Him. He has given us His word so that we will discover His character and the wonderful things He has prepared for us.

    There are things that God only does for those who are related to Him that He will not do for all people. This is the privilege of those who belong to Him and know Him. That is why God wants Himself to be known by us, so that in knowing Him we will be confident in following Him wholeheartedly. He ...read more
