You’ll only find ...read more

Maybe we had a dream of how our life would work out and we have waited around for that to come to pass, but it never has. If you ...read more

    The life of Jonah teaches us that there is nothing we do is hidden from God. Also, we learn that as a church we must be certain of our identity and our purpose so we can glorify God through all we are and all we do.

    We read in Jonah 1:7-8, Then the men said to each other, "We should throw lots to find out why this is happening to us." So the men threw lots. The lots showed that the troubles came to them because of Jonah. Then the men said to Jonah, "It is your fault that this terrible thing is ...read more

Anniversaries, birthdays, taking out the trash…things like that sometimes just slip my mind and land me in hot water. Paul here is instructing Timothy to “keep ...read more
