    Just Like Us (Part Two)

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Feb 22, 2019
     | 5,248 views

    We all make mistakes. None of us are perfect and that includes those in the bible. Those great men and women of faith did some remarkable things but they had their flaws too. Today we'll look at Abraham and Joshua and see how they are just like us.

Sometimes we make the mistake of looking at celebrities in an elevated way that portrays them as larger than life and almost too perfect. Therefore we conclude that they ...read more

    Sleep In Heavenly Peace

     | 5,264 views

    I read an article where the writer posed a question: "what keeps you up at night?" It's too early to think about Christmas songs but I thought, 'what better sleep could there be than to sleep in heavenly peace?' Let's see how.

    SLEEP IN HEAVENLY PEACE There are times when it's hard to get to sleep. It can be because we had caffeine too late in the day or we had a snack too close to bedtime and now we're paying for it. Then there are other reasons-you have a deadline to meet and you're not ready. You have an ...read more

    Author Lloyd C. Douglas used to tell how he loved to visit an old man who gave violin lessons. He enjoyed visiting him because he had a kind of homely wisdom that was refreshing to him.

    One morning he walked into his studio and greeted him by saying, "Well, what's the good news today?" Putting down his violin, the teacher stepped over to a tuning fork suspended from a cord and struck it and said, "There is the good news for today." He continued, ...read more

    There is a day coming when the trumpet will sound and the opportunity for repentance has ENDED and our eternal fate is SEALED. For those already IN CHRIST, our salvation will be completed when Jesus returns… this time as a conquering King! Will that include you?
