Contributed by Shaila Touchton on Jan 24, 2025

Contributed by Lalachan Abraham on Nov 29, 2019

A reporter once asked to Helen Keller “What would be worse than being born blind?” She replied, “The only thing worse than being blind is to have sight without vision.

Every Decision And Action Has Consequences

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 3, 2025

One of the many things the Bible teaches is that we reap what we sow.

Even though the Bible clearly teaches THAT WE REAP WHAT WE SOW, it seems that many have a difficult time… • Understanding this… • Believing this… For example, the world in which we live is full of people who believe they can live in sin and there are absolutely no consequences.

Fired Up: From Anger To Action

Contributed by Austin W. Duncan on Sep 26, 2025

Similarly, Matthew ...read more
