Listen To Christ Always

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 9, 2023

Be Faithful To The Mission To The Nations

The Wisdom Of Gallio; The Lament Of The World Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 26, 2025

People, Jew and Gentile alike, needed to be part of something not just historic, but spiritually on fire, something with hope built-in.

Pressing On Or Just Pressed

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 4, 2009

Remembrance Sunday: living out of others’ expectations for us just makes us feel pressed. Relief from grief comes when you pursue what you know God wants for you.
