Healing From Anger Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 27, 2021

One of the mightiest emotions we have inside of us is our anger. We feel intense anger when something horribly wrong or unjust is done, say the sexual abuse of a child, or some blatant racial discrimination, or your wife has betrayed marriage vows and committed adultery with another person.

The Psalms are inspired by God and therefore meant to instruct us how to think about God and the entire world. On the other hand, the Psalms are poems or songs and are meant to awaken and shape our feelings about God and the world. We have focused in the previous messages on the feelings of ...read more

Land Of Liberty

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 12, 2021

The Christians who came to America to enjoy liberty did not come here to escape the bondage of atheists or humanists, but of other Christians. In our Western history it has been Christians who have been the greatest opponents of religious liberty.
