Holy Spirit Love For All

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 24, 2018

Saints do not let anyone tell you that you are a second class Christian because you do not speak in tongues or walk on fire or survive snake bites. Such testing and qualifying today is not of the Spirit but is of men not God. Without love I am nothing.

Mother’s Day 2018

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 24, 2018

Mother’s Day 2018 Mother’s today are the most courageous people I know of. They face a world that treats them and their contributions with contempt and indifference.

Scarlet Cord

Contributed by Samuel M on Jan 11, 2024

And she bound the scarlet cord in the window as soon as the spies left. The scarlet cord which she used to save the spies was a remainder for God to save Rahab. The sacrifices that we make in God's will, will be the scarlet cord’s that reminds God to save us when we are in trouble.
