Live As Free People

Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 29, 2013

Anticipating Canada Day [and Independence Day], I invite the people of God to think what it means to live as "free people."

When Doubt Is Called Proof

Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 27, 2025

True prophets invite testing; a claim that denial proves authenticity is a closed loop and never the biblical measure of God’s voice.
