    How can a man be just with God? This is the question Job asked. What could the answer be?

Notice I didn’t say that He couldn’t come near sin. For too long we’ve looked at how sin defiles holiness. It’s ...read more

    In his fourth word from the cross, Jesus expresses being forsaken by God. He points out to the exchange that happened that day: our sin on him, God's forgiveness on us. Our right response is to live thankful lives that count the cost of sin.

Worse yet, maybe it was a PCS! And the word “permanent” in permanent change of station becomes a curse. Or maybe your ...read more

    The fairy tale ‘Beauty and the Beast’ was not original with Walt Disney. In fact, there are similar fairy tales that go back 4000 years! But it wasn't written into story form by a French Novelist until 1740.

    The story and eventual plays and movies that were made about it drew the attention of theologian G. K. Chesterton. This is what he said about it; “The great lesson of the tale of “Beauty and the Beast” is that a thing must be loved before it is loveable. A person must be loved before that person ...read more
