I would like to begin with some inspirational quotes and illustrations; and I’ll start by sharing one entitled “Impossible Takes Longer.” Charles F. ...read more

    "God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another"

And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. We ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 25, 2023
     | 2,156 views

    This world is in disarray because of the weight of sin and departure from God. When the light of God is rejected, then darkness clasps the person’s hand, and leads him into its own dark domain. We look at the folly of idolatry, and the world in freefall.
