    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Oct 27, 2014
     | 5,723 views

    Although we cannot offer a fool-proof plan that is guaranteed to work, we can look at some proverbs that will help us be more likely to be on the winning side of life’s biggest issues. But we must be willing to surrender our sacred cows.

    Giant Issues in Life (Proverbs 22:6, 15, 7,9) 1. Upon waking, a woman said to her husband, "I just dreamt that you gave me a necklace of pearls. What do you think it means?" The man smiled and kissed his wife. "You'll know tonight," he softly whispered. That evening, the man came home with a small ...read more

    Mary's Song

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Dec 13, 2015
     | 7,003 views

    The Magnificat. We should take Mary seriously. Jesus' mother is also our mother. She is a “mother” to all who accept Jesus as Lord. Her most significant role is to point us to her Son.

    Christmas songs bring back memories. When I hear certain carols, I'm transported back to my childhood in Germany. I especially remember Stille Nacht, the German hymn by Fr Joseph Mohr that celebrates Jesus, born of a virgin, sleeping in heavenly peace. Here in Luke chapter one we see Mary's song, ...read more

     | 9,529 views

    Some things never change – and Jesus is One of them! He still accepts people!!! He doesn’t wait until they measure up or become nice enough to be accepted. Let's look at some ways God accepts us and learn to accept others!

    Accepted! John 6:37 “All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away.” Intro: One of the greatest needs people have is arguably the need for acceptance. That doesn’t necessarily mean acceptance of everything a person thinks or ...read more
