Stephen, Love And Truth

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 21, 2013

St Stephen's sermon was very aggressive, and would not really be expected to work, but his core truth is real.

St. Stephen December 26 2013 Lumen Fidei I grew up in the fifties and sixties, and being a Catholic was “okay” with the culture back then. So this quote from Jesus about being hated by all seemed to be referring to anti-Catholic bigotry from the early 1900s. After all, wasn’t ...read more

Provoking Thoughts From 1 John (14 Of 16)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022

There are very few people that we come into contact with who say, "I do not believe in a God.”

What surprises us about these folks, when we do come into contact with them, is that they will take God's name in vain, using His name when they curse. If they believe there is no God, why bother using His name like that, or at all? We may not know why they use God's name along with curse ...read more

The Perfect Promise Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 26, 2021
