The Spider And The Web

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on May 30, 2009

Dare To Be Different

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jan 11, 2016

Change is difficult-it’s hard to sustain. There is much working against it so we need motivators and incentives to keep at it and stay the course. Daring to be differerent may not be easy but it's rewarding and it's what we're called to do as Christians.

Benefits Of Living For Jesus

Contributed by Jerry Owen on Feb 11, 2016

Is Jesus At The Center Of All You Do And Think

Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Apr 22, 2014

We Need Praise And Thanksgiving

Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Feb 21, 2015

Praise isn't always easy. Thanksgiving doesn't always come easily. However, humanity is hardwired for praise. The question is where the praise is directed. This new translation of Psalm 66 offers a fresh look at Old Testament praise for NT believers.

What Is Your Willoughby?

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jan 5, 2018
