Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Feb 12, 2009

Our relationship with God can require a strained relationship with others when we take sin seriously and need to avoid it.

I was watching an old movie on television and I heard a line that I’d missed before. The villain of this comedy was talking on the phone and said something like: “Sure, I know what kind of low-down person would sue his own mother, but we’re not talking about me!” It caught me off-guard and I had ...read more

Christ’s Childhood Series

Contributed by Paul Clemente on Aug 22, 2011

As Christians, we have responsibilities on earth (family, work, school, society, etc…), but we must always remember where we ultimately belong (we are citizens of heaven)!

When Jesus Christ was on earth, He was fully man and fully God! This of course is a mystery, but it is truth. This is similar to the truth and mystery of God is One but exists in Three Persons. If Jesus Christ was fully man and fully God on earth, how was His growing up? God gives us a glimpse of ...read more

Fruit That Is Always In Season: Goodness Series

Contributed by Daniel Habben on May 28, 2017

According to my research, the world’s largest pumpkin was grown in 2014 and weighed more than a ton. That’s heavier than two, medium-size ...read more
