    God didn’t call Abraham to be the Father of Faith because He was a spiritual giant; quiet to contrary, He called Him because He was human, yet willing to be molded, melted, and changed. He wants to do the same for you.

Here’s the ...read more

    Most people believe in existence beyond the grave, with the majority assuming everyone will eventually wind up in heaven, or some place of euphoric bliss. Heaven is reserved for the saved, but hell will be a reality for those apart from Christ.

We live in an age when most believe that truth is relative, rather than absolute. Most believe in existence beyond the grave, with the majority ...read more
