That was Charlie Brown’s secret desire – to be called “Flash” by his friends and of course Lucy ...read more

    Have I ever told you about a church I read about one time?

One was pretty well known and respected across the ...read more

    God is good in giving, and all that He gives is good.

    13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil, and He Himself does not tempt anyone. 14 But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. 15 Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin is ...read more
