    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Oct 6, 2024
     | 640 views

    Too often we put everything toward the church building and programs, and at the same time we are denying the church body.

It is feasible for us to be so fixated on a church building that we have disregard of the genuine church, God’s children. Yet, the contrary reaction, ignoring the ...read more

     | 2,488 views

    When I'm not doing well, it is often because I am going it alone. I don't always let others in. I forget to ask for help; I keep my problems to myself. And though I may not see it, others around me might be doing the same thing.

    Do We Really Need Each Other? Text: James 5:14-16 Many living things need each other to survive. I have lived for most of my life near trees known as Colorado aspens. If you are familiar with this tree, you may have noticed that it does not grow alone. Aspens are found in clusters, or groves. ...read more
