    Our eating style reflects and affects who and what we are. It identifies our approach to life. If we examine various societies and cultures, we see that each has its traditional foods and food ceremonies. "I am Italian. I often eat spaghetti, lasagna, or pizza," or "I am a real American.

The storm ruins, harms, wounds and kills life. Let is consider some of the following: 1. Disasters will Show Up ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,164 views

    One of the great things about God is that He wants us to know Him. Not just know about Him, but, to know Him.

    My servant grew up in the LORD’s presence like a tender green shoot, like a root in dry ground. There was nothing beautiful or majestic about his appearance, nothing to attract us to him. He was despised and rejected— a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief. We turned our ...read more

     | 4,348 views

    The information-driven society is one that tries to secularize and pervert the human family into something it can never become.

    Thursday of 5th week in Course 2015 Joy of the Gospel Jesus has such a sense of humor that some commentators have mistaken it for cruelty. Of course, Jesus never sinned, so thinking this comment about throwing the bread to the dogs is a real insult is wrongheaded thinking. In reality, Jesus was ...read more

    Jesus went willingly to His death for our sakes, to fulfill the covenant obligation God freely took on with Abraham.

    We killed Him. O, I know the Roman procurator read the sentence, and Roman soldiers beat Jesus and crowned Him with thorns and hammered in the nails. They were what philosophers would call the “efficient cause” of Christ’s death. But Adam and Eve and David and Caligula and ...read more

     | 12,070 views

    The Bible says that in the heart of every Christian, there is a nature that points to the bright side and another on the dark side of man. Our goal is that we will not just focus on our strength of character but also improve our weaknesses.

    You haven't always existed; only God is eternal in both directions. Your soul will exist long after your physical life is over, either in heaven with God or in hell separated from God.

    The Great Betrayal

     | 10,133 views

    Judas first stole a few shekels and then made some more wrong choices until he was pulled deeper and deeper into depravity. Be careful about minimizing your sins because they may lead you to something even darker and more destructive.

    The month of February reminds me of my candidating weekend at Edgewood five years ago when you were checking me out and I was checking you out to see how God might be leading each of us. I think I preached at least five times, attended a number of groups and met with a ton of people. I still ...read more
