Contributed by Brian Bill on Feb 21, 2022

Trust in the providence of God when you can't feel the presence of God.

Recently, someone posted a picture of me and my second-grade classmates. In case you’re wondering, I’m the burly and buff looking guy on the top left (next to the star).

The Divine Mysteries Of Jesus Christ

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 5, 2021

We find the answer in understanding the proper allocations of morality; the teachings of how life ought to be lived. We see in Jesus the perfect union of contrasts between mercy, justice, love, truth, judgment and grace.

The Divine Mysteries of Jesus Christ Introduction "Many people—particularly the young—have been persuaded that such a search is futile.

Christian Cleverness Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 22, 2021

The Apostle Paul in all of the trials of his final years never had a lawyer. Jesus was his heavenly advocate, but he represented himself before both Jewish and Gentiles judges. As his own lawyer he was able to outwit the Supreme Court of the Jews.

The first impeachment trial of a President of the United States began on March 30, 1868. The 54 Senators were at their desks in the Senate Chamber, and at the front was Chief Justice Salmen P. Chase of the Supreme Court, who would preside over the trial. The President himself was not there. He ...read more

Was America Blessed Or Just Lucky?

Contributed by Dennis King on Oct 13, 2021

Our Creator has certainly blessed America in many marvelous ways: Abundant natural beauty is found all across our land, including timbered forests, lush green valleys, richly fertile farmlands, the bountiful Great Plains, snow-capped Rocky Mountains, and warm California beaches.

Was America God Blessed Or Just Lucky The history of the United States displays an uncanny pattern of receiving and reflecting God's blessings. Psalm 33:12 reads, “Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people whom He has chosen for His own inheritance.” Our Creator has certainly ...read more

Resurrection: Fact Or Fiction?

Contributed by Scott Maze on Apr 16, 2025

Some of you have played Jenga with your family, right? You seek to pull piece after piece out without the tower collapsing. If Christianity were a Jenga tower, the resurrection is the one block that, when pulled, the tower comes crashing down every single time.

Dead people stay dead.1 “Nobody goes to funerals and says, ‘What’s the over/under if this person comes alive again?’” I have yet to see one dead person come back to life. I doubt you have seen any dead person live again, either. Once people have gone down the road of death, they just don’t return.2 ...read more

What Do You Get For Following Jesus? - Mark 6:14-30 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Oct 19, 2023

Herod liked to listen to John but remained perplexed instead of repenting. The great “king” became powerless before a little girl because of his bondage to lust, pride, and the idol of human approval.

Mark 6:14 King Herod heard about this, for Jesus’ name had become well known. Some were saying, “John the Baptist has been raised from the dead, and that is why miraculous powers are at work in him.” 15 Others said, “He is Elijah.” And still others claimed, “He is a prophet, like one of the ...read more
