    Mary's act of devotion was costly but it was worth the price because costly devotion gets recognized, it gets remembered and it gets rewarded.

    COSTLY DEVOTION John 12:1-11 1) Costly devotion is sacrificial (1-3). Weird word isn’t it-‘nard’. Doesn’t sound very expensive, does it? Sounds too close to lard. “Hey, honey, look what I bought for you; this perfume called Nard! I got you a whole pint of it!” ...read more

    The reason that the church does not achieve as much is not God’s fault, it is our fault of faithlessness. Let us look at serven things faith will do if we just take advantage...

    INTRODUCTION In the scripture read, the disciples were perplexed as to why they could not rebuke the devil and thus heal and restore the boy. Jesus answer was simple—they had a lack of faith.

    How believers fearlessly face persecution.

    I’ve been reading a book by an agnostic whose previous book chronicled his project to read the entire Encyclopedia Britannica.
