    based on 5 ratings
     | 15,155 views

    I must confess that there is something else that I don’t understand – why there seems to be such hatred in this world against anything that is considered to be Christian.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK A. There is a beautiful old hymn that begins with these words: “Love sent my Savior to die in my stead. Why should He love me so?" And ends by asking, "Why should my Savior to Calvary go? Why should He love me so?” How would you ...read more

    The gift of "giving" is perhaps closest to God's heart. What is it about this gift that makes it so special, and how can we know if we have this particular gift?

    OPEN: One preacher told of the time he found himself in a situation where he truly needed to announce publicly what he was giving to a special church offering. “This wasn’t for the purpose of boastfulness, for I was only giving $25, although, at that time, that was significant to me. ...read more

    Sowing Discord

    Contributed by James Dina on Aug 7, 2020

     | 17,743 views

    Sowing discord among brethren is an abomination in the eyes of the Lord. Considering yourself better than others fosters division but considering others better than yourself fosters unity. Watch out for those who cause divisions and avoid them. Love binds us, discord separates us.
