    Coming of age brings responsibility as well as joy!

    Only in America can a pastor with a German name do a Hispanic "bat mitzvah." I even welcomed folks in Spanish. Only one sentence but they seemed impressed. This was "milder" version of the tradition but I think it would be good if the Anglos developed a ceremony for boys ...read more

    We all have had bad days; even believers. How we react to those bad days testify to the depth of our spiritual maturity.

    Under The Influence

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,188 views

    When a person is, "under the influence," it changes the way they act and behave. God wants to influence us and put spices into us that will change the flavor of our life.

    Under the Influence Isa 7:2 And it was told the house of David, saying, Syria is confederate with Ephraim. And his heart was moved, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the wood are moved with the wind. In life there are negative and positive things that will exert an influence upon your ...read more

    Jethro, already a priest, was excited to hear about the work of God!

    Remember when Moses was banished from Egypt and into the desert? Moses found a water well and his future wife Zipporah in Midian.

    The Construction Of A King's Character (1 Samuel 16:14-23)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 7, 2024
     | 841 views

    God used solitude, secrecy, sameness, and struggle to shape the character and faith of David for his future role as king of Israel. God can use tools like these to shape anyone who surrenders their life to Him.

    David had just been anointed as the next king of Israel by the prophet Samuel (1 Samuel 16:1-13), much to the amazement of his father and brothers. He had been in the fields of Judea tending the family flocks, seemingly consigned like the majority of the populace to live a life of productive ...read more
