    Second in the series based on Max Lucado’s book 6 Hours one Friday. God worked miracles for Moses, Daniel, Shadrach, Meschach and Abendego, and he will do it for us if we learn to trust and obey.

    He’ll do it again Last week we discussed the three F’s the three storms that hit us. One of those was the Futility. Futility hits especially when we are weary. We stay up nights and instead of counting sheep, we count our debts, our tasks, maybe even our heartbreaks. We are weary, we are tired, ...read more

    God-fearing mothers are God-given blessings not only to our homes but also to our society. We cannot imagine how wicked our land would be without the presence of godly mothers in our homes.

    Paul, by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, believes it’s extremely important that you and I know who we are...in Christ. What we think about our identity—who we are-- can make all the difference in how live this life...in Christ and do Kingdom work.

    I think we have an identity crisis in America...and quite possibly around the world. So many young people gain their identity from the latest fashions, trends or from their friends. Many Christians today, also, have an identity crisis. Most of us perceive our identity more from our family, our ...read more
