    God wants to use our tests to provide a testimony.

    It seems like everywhere you look today, there is someone who is predicting that troubled times are ahead. I've heard several who have claimed that our nation today is more divided than it has been since the days before the civil war. I'm not completely persuaded about that, but I do think our ...read more

    Only Jesus can make a jailhouse rock as he puts a song in Paul's heart and a spring in the jailer's step.

    In a 1957 movie, Elvis Presley made prison look like a rip roarin’ time when he sang “Jailhouse Rock.” The truth is Jesus made a jailhouse rock long before Elvis did and it was no staged production. It was a real-life event punctuated by an earthquake, a jail break, and a midnight ...read more

    Have you ever been asked if you are saved? A Roman jailer asked “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” (Acts 16:30)

    Everyone knows this is an important question-- How to be saved is the most important quest of any human life. This quest begins when a man or woman first realizes their true state before a holy God. The Apostle Paul and Silas had been carrying the Gospel to Europe. In Macedonia they went to ...read more

Yes, the chains were all broken. • But that was not the purpose of the earthquake. No one got away. Paul shouted, “We are all here!” Even after their ...read more
