The lack of prayer has weakened our spiritual body and because of this we often find ourselves spiritually feeble, without strength and even the crumbling of our ...read more

    Ten Commandments For Raising Children

    Contributed by Howard Strickland on Aug 1, 2016
     | 8,403 views

    These Israelite parents were to teach their children obedience morning and night, so these words would not become a matter of formal legalism, but a response based upon understanding. Remember, obedience is formed when its a way of life.
