    When the Lord of the universe becomes personal to you, He becomes also your shepherd. The one that keeps you safe and leads your life.

    My Shepherd Psalm 23 Introduction- Please turn to Psalm 23 in your Bible. The easiest way to find Psalms is to divide your Bible in half. Psalm is a very familiar verse. I would think between funerals and man’s times of sorrow, it is quoted often, but the heart of David is often ...read more

    We all have the potential to take the blessings God gives us and show enough ungratefulness to operate in that responsibility that we can loose it… Esau – sells his birthright for what? A bowl of stew… why because he didn’t honor what God had bestowed upon him.

    Often we get discouraged because our labors for Christ seem fruitless or insignificant. We feel that we are too small or lack the resources to accomplish anything. Don't quit or give up. Understand that there is too small or insignificant to God.

Cyrus sends out a call for any of the Jews who had been in exile yet remained faithful to God to go and to be a part of ...read more

     | 11,049 views

    The cornerstone of Christian worship is The Lord's Supper. But sometimes this foundational part of church is buried by other stuff. What could bury Communion and how can we avoid that danger?

    On Sunday July 4th, 1848 a cornerstone was laid for the Washington Monument. It was made of pure white marble weighing 24,500 pounds and had been dragged through the streets of Washington from the railroad station to the site. It was a dramatic event - attended by a crowd of about 20,000 people. ...read more

    Lot Series

    Contributed by Roshelle Brenneise on Oct 25, 2024
     | 658 views

    The wickedness of the city may have caused Lot pain, but instead of being an INFLUENCER, he had become the INFLUENCEE. He had squandered his knowledge of God. His very presence in the city and his own actions say – if nothing else - “acceptance” of the swamp he had chosen.

    October 26, 2024 We don’t know much about Lot. He is mentioned just 26 times in Genesis, primarily in chapters 13 and 19. We know that his father was Haran and that he joined the household of his uncle Abram and aunt Sarai after the death of his father (interestingly, it was one of Abram’s ...read more
