In Praise Of Our Reliable God (Psalm 40:1-17) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Dec 27, 2025

We sing songs to the God who can be trusted to pull us out of the pit, and put us on dry ground. Part of what "faith" is, is choosing to have confidence that God will come through for us.

Shepherds Or Fishermen?

Contributed by Ovidiu Radulescu on Sep 21, 2007

Not even one of the twelve disciples had ever been a shepherd. Were shepherds scarce in Jesus day? Actually there were plenty of shepherds in that area of Palestine. Jesus intentionally avoided choosing shepherds to lead the Christian church. Jesus called

When God Gives His Gift...

Contributed by Efren V. Narido on Dec 23, 2007
