    Have you ever thought what it might have been like for the disciples to experience the death of the One they gave up everything to follow? Try to visualize one of those disciples coming to meet with us here on Resurrection Day.

    Last week we got into the exchanges that took place between the two criminals and Jesus. Today I want to focus on the seven phrases that Jesus spoke when he was on the cross. What did he say, why did he say it, and what does it mean to us?

    If All Women Were Removed From The Average Local Church, It would grind to a halt. Women hold a vital place in the church. Most work while men stand & talk. They are more dependable & have greater commitment than men. Deborah stepped in when the men stepped out.

    God sees all and knows all. That can cause us to feel either threatened or comforted. The best response is that of David, "lead me." It is far better to be led by the one who sees and knows everything, even our own thoughts.

    With the sudden onslaught of the Worldwide pandemic, it seems appropriate to revisit the trials of Job.

    Throughout the centuries, the story of Job has been used to help people in times of sorrow and sickness.

However, ...read more
