Life Is A Box Of Chocolates ... Not! Series

Contributed by David Smith on Oct 29, 2009

“Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge?” (Job 38:2) Yes, I’m quoting God from the book of Job, chapter 38, second verse - a book that I’ve finally decided, reluctantly, needs to be looked at.

I say reluctantly because it’s a depressing book, and depressing not only because it deals with the series of depressing events that befall the story’s main character, but depressing too because the man’s search for an answer to his problems never gets a result that I find satisfying. I’m assuming ...read more

Unify- Under Covenant Series

Contributed by David Spiegel on Feb 25, 2015

Jesus meant for for His church to be unified and we also know the enemy loves to bring division. Since we are to be unified under a blood covenant with Christ, what should our covenant clothing be? Our filthy rags exchanged for His righteousness..

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 2, 2021
