    God speaks through his Son to all who are willing to listen and obey.

I enjoy and have benefited from learning stories of Jesus and the apostles, studying the theological teachings of Paul and practical day-to-day instructions of James. But why GENESIS?

    We are drowning in a sea of impurity. Everywhere we look we find temptation to lead impure lives. The psalmist asked a question that troubles us all: how do we stay pure and holy in a filthy environment? Where can we find that strength and wisdom?

In his counselor training classes, Charlie taught thousands of people the basic principles of how to ...read more

    Is your ministry all polish?

    Polishing Doorknobs There is an old saying when something is futile or a waste of time and money. Doing (whatever) is like polishing doorknobs on the Titanic.

    Morality is not just an arbitrary abstraction. God is hurt by what we do, and we ourselves are hurt by immoral behavior. But God in Christ can give us a new heart.

    I am a part of a group of five ministers who get together about once a month as a support group. Our intent is simply to share what is going on in our lives and let the others comment with any wisdom they may have. At the last meeting of the group, one of the members was talking about the way he ...read more

    If you and I want to truly know Christ it’s going to cost us. Knowing Jesus requires that you and I take stock of our gains, our prestige, our very personages and like Paul, consider their worth in light of Christ. What does it mean to know Christ? What w

    I WANT TO KNOW CHRIST I want to know Christ. To say this is to commit ourselves to a monumental task that would involve the rest of our lives and would never find its completion.
