The Answer Is Prayer

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jun 5, 2012

James shows us that in any situation we face the answer is prayer.

Bring Me, Your Sick, Your Tired!!

Does Your Church Want To Get Well?

Contributed by David Wilson on Oct 15, 2012

Some churches suffer from a defeated attitude when Jesus calls us to take simple steps, not giant steps. We aren't on an escalator, but must move our legs to climb the stairs set before us.

Attended a confernece on recognizing, halting, and preenting decline in the local church this past Saturday. In reading the foreword to the book "Reaching the summit" by George L. Yates, the illustration of the lame man at the pool of Bethsaida is used to demonstrate the attitude of some churches ...read more
