Gifts Fit For A King Series

What Is Beauty Based

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 12, 2021

Men do not claim to understand women, but they do understand beauty. A man does not need to know anything about flowers to appreciate and enjoy them. So also, ignorance cannot rob men of the one thing they do know about women, and that is their beauty.

Every woman wants to be beautiful, and that is why the beauty business is a seven billion dollar a year industry, and the largest advertiser in America. American women actually worship beauty. They will do almost anything to attain it, including fasting if it is necessary. They will try anything, ...read more

Reconstructive Surgery On The Body Of Christ

Contributed by Russell Brownworth on Jan 22, 2007

I believe today the church is more divided than at any time since the day of Pentecost when she had her birth. This is a sickness, and the patient is close to terminal!

If I were allowed to be the one to make the choice of what the church, the entire body of Christ, should have as the main focus, I would choose surgery – reconstructive surgery to put the body back in a healing mode. I believe today the church is more divided than at any time since the day of ...read more

Are You A Follower Of Jesus

Contributed by Darrin Fish on Sep 3, 2015

In Everything Give Thanks

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Nov 23, 2010

Thankfulness is so much more than a comparison of our own situation to someone else’s. Thankfulness is so much more than having enough food to eat, a nice, warm home to live in, good health, or financial security, because each of those circumstances can b

Contributed by Ron Tuit on Jun 2, 2013

Jesus displayed the cost of Discipleship in His own Life and Death and followers of Him can expect nothing less than total commitment to God's Kingdom.

Excellence In Family Living Series

Contributed by Joey Nelson on Oct 19, 2003
