Contributed by Chris Cuthbertson on May 10, 2018

Even the most phlegmatic, laid back, understanding mother expects to be honored today with special attention. If you stop and think ...read more

The God Who Is

Contributed by Nick S Panico on May 20, 2016

There's a lot of confusion in our culture about God. Movies, media, news stories, in our schools and even in churches all distort the God of the bible. This message shares God's identity as He has revealed Himself in scriptures through His name.
