    What significance does the Transfiguration of Jesus have for me? Why did it all take place? Matthew 17 speaks about this spectacular event in the life of Jesus, but what does it all mean? What is the transfiguration all about?

    Matthew 17:1 – ASCENDING THE GREATEST MOUNTAIN OF ALL I was so intrigued by the fact that he had named himself. His father neglected to name him and so in his early teenage years he chose his own name; the name of a mountain. Mt Taraksh means Great One, and in keeping with his name, Taraksh ...read more

    Breakthrough Prayer For My Church

    Contributed by Keith Broyles on Oct 7, 2014
     | 6,158 views

    As people of faith we need to be people of prayer but even more than that, people of breakthrough prayer, asking God to break through in situations where there is nothing else we can do. We need breakthrough prayer in our churches.

    The Smell Will Be Awful!

    Contributed by Keith Broyles on Oct 7, 2014

It can generate good feelings like chocolate chip cookies or fresh bread baking. When we were living in Tyler I loved to walk in the mall at Christmas time. There was a ...read more
