All Kinds Of People Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on May 17, 2023

You can learn from observing people. It is amazing that King Solomon could see this much from his palace. Solomon was observing people who were working hard, and he observed that their inward motive was envy. We could find this type of person very commonly.

Three Kinds Of Peace

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 19, 2022

A Christian man got very involved in collegiate football.

Those Jews were experiencing God’s correction in their lives. But the Babylonians went way beyond that. They exacted an ...read more
