    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Dec 19, 2025
     | 229 views

    When you know you’re going to have a bad day, affirm God’s justice; affirm God’s authority; and affirm God’s mercy. It will help you get through the day.

    According to a recent survey, the average American knows their day is going to be bad by 8:36 a.m. in the morning. For example, they say, “You know you’re going to have a bad day if you wake up feeling sick (35%), if you suffer from poor sleep (31%), or if you start the day with a headache (29%).” ...read more

    The Lord's Day: Resurrection Joy, Not Sabbath Duty

     | 84 views

    Here's the truth we're going to establish today: the Lord's Day is not the Sabbath. Christians are not commanded to observe the Sabbath. Our gathering on Sunday is not about keeping a law—it's about celebrating a resurrection.

    The Lord's Day: Resurrection Joy, Not Sabbath Duty Introduction: The Confusion in Our Pews Today we’re going to take a look at something that might be a cause of confusion to some Christians. Our Sunday School lesson this morning, titled: The Lord’s Day dealt with God’s command to honor the ...read more

    A New Years message on having a listening heart.

    Title: A Renewed Ear Topic: New Years Message Theme: Prolonging the Days of Christ A truth worth grasping today is found in Isaiah 53:10. I love the way the New American Standard Bible translates it, “But Lord was pleased to crush Him, putting Him to grief. If He would render ...read more

    On Mother’s Day, many children will try to do something special for their mom’s like give them a personal letter to express their love. Angie, 8 years old, wrote: "Dear Mother, I’m going to make dinner for you on Mother’s Day. It’s going to be a surprise. P.S. I hope you like popcorn."

    My Mother “10 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. 11 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. 12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. 13 She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly ...read more

    Many of us, as Christians, grow up with a "blind spot" just like the Dad in "The Cat's In The Cradle" song. Are we failing to build spiritual relationships just as the Dad in the song failed to build a real Father-Son relationship?

    The Cat’s In The Cradle Today we will be reading from 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11 Today is Father’s Day. To me it is a confusing day but at the same time it makes sense. It makes sense because a Biblical father is what God planed for the human family. A father who provides for the needs of the ...read more
