Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Oct 8, 2023

Samson: The Weakest Strongman (Part 1) Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Aug 18, 2022

Yes, Samson was the strongest man in the world. But there was a glaring character flaw. No one could defeat Samson matching strength to strength. They did not have to match his strength because all they needed to do was to exploit his inner weakness.

Ask any Sunday School child who is the strongest man in the Bible. There will be no hesitation. It is Samson. The winner of any modern-day strongman competition would not be able to stand against Samson. He was the GOAT, the greatest of all time. He tore a lion apart with his bare hands. There ...read more

If there is one thing the world really needs to know more about, & to put into practice, it is "love." How often Jesus tells us to love one another. In John 15:12 He commanded us to love one another. In fact "love" is so important that Jesus devoted a whole section of the Sermon on the Mount to ...read more

Amazing Grace

Contributed by Phillip Smith on Apr 22, 2023

When I was dating, and I'm sure for you as with me, my significant other thought I was perfect. Is that the way it was for you? Notice my wife shaking her head. The truth, she did; but she will no longer admit it. I knew she was not perfect. I told her so on many occasions. It was something ...read more
