I've always loved the Cinderella story, and have read it to my granddaughter, and listened to it on record many times. It is a story that fits so well in our culture. From rags to riches is the American dream come true. The poor little servant girl escapes from the wash water to live in ...read more

Our Excelling Example Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 16, 2021

We look to Christ as our example, and He teaches us a positive type of humility that says I have ability and blessings which I will use, not for self-glorification, but for the edification of others.

You cannot imitate what you do not know. Any parrot who learns to swear does not reveal its own character, but rather that of its owner and example. To copy or imitate by definition implies an original to go by. It is the original that determines the nature of the copy. This concept is ...read more

It is all summed up in these verses: 1 Peter 2:9 “But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, ...read more

What would you eat? I suspect a lot of us would choose a really lovely setting, perhaps over-looking the ...read more
