Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jan 14, 2013

In Psalms 29 & 30 23 see the awesome character and power of God, but in Psalm 30 we see David stuck in a trial. If God is so powerful how come He lets David undergo a life-threatening illness? In this we see how God works in difficulties in our lives as w

Psalm 29 is interesting to me as for one of the first times in the book of Psalms we find David not asking God for anything. There is no crisis here, no enemy that is trying to destroy David or the nation Israel. This is a psalm of pure praise and adoration for the Most High God. It reminds us that ...read more

A Matter Of The Heart

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Nov 3, 2015

Unless and until you believe in your heart that Jesus rose from the dead you will not be changed from a sinner to a Saint. For many people is it the 18 inches between the head and the heart that is the obstacle to their faith in Christ.

A Matter of the Heart Romans 10:8-9 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim: 9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised ...read more

At a Guys Night Out hosted by Cornerstone Church in San Antonio TX, we took the time to honor San Antonio's First Responders. 30 men got saved! I am speaking to them as I say; Now that you are saved, There are some things you need to be doing.

At one time, I wanted to be a fireman, and then I change my mind and thought that a police officer would be so much ...read more
