REVELATION means God chooses to reveal his nature and his will to us. The LORD has made known His salvation; ...read more

    It's About Time

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 7, 2025
     | 143 views

    God invites us to slow down—to listen before reacting, to speak with grace, and to let His Spirit shape our emotional responses. When we follow James 1:19, our relationships reflect the patient, gentle heart of Jesus.

One of those moments for me came on a day that seemed ordinary. I was on my way to visit a dear church member I hadn’t seen for too ...read more

    Trust God’s presence and providence when facing hostility or fear, relying on His protection and grace instead of reacting with anger or self-defense.

    Some of us walked in today weary, worried, and worn. You’ve been dodging spears you never asked for—sharp words at work, quiet tensions at home, old wounds that seem to whisper fresh threats.
