    Prior to sending the disciples out in ministry, Jesus sought to prepare them for the task ahead. He did not promise it would be easy, but He did promise to provide for them. We share the same promises. Service isn't always easy, but the Lord is faithful to provide.

While these were sent solely to the house of Israel, prior to Jesus’ death and ...read more

    At our harvest festival we usually think of food, crops. But we need to expand our concept of harvest. We also need to recognize just how much God is involved in providing for us.

The first thing is to encourage us to see harvest as something bigger than what the combine harvester picks up. The second thing is to ...read more
