    1 Peter 3:19 : The spirits in prison Some time ago, I got a question from a friend of mine concerning the passage of I Peter 3:19. Let’s read this passage together with verses 18 and 20: I Peter 3:18-20 “For Christ also died for sins once for all, the just for the unjust, so that He might bring us ...read more

    A thankful spirit encourages others to see the positive in their own lives, and so being thankful is a ministry in a world where the bad news is thrown at us so often we tend to forget the good news. We need people with a thankful spirit to remind us that light is as real as the dark

    The more I study the history of man and the sea, the more grateful I become that I am a landlubber. Tens of thousands of lives have been lost in ship wrecks in my lifetime. But some sailors have much to be thankful for in spite of ship wrecks. John O'Brian, for example, was off the coast of ...read more

    Stressing the power and presence of God's Holy Spirit.

    How many of you have cell phones? Maybe I should ask how many don’t have a cell phone? The average mobile phone user spends 48 minutes/day on their phone. I think that is a conservative estimate.
