Faith That Moves Mountains

Contributed by Nate Herbst on Dec 31, 2008

Faith that can move mountains is attainable if we’ll apply God’s Word, being faithful with little for the sake of the little, allowing Him to build and strengthen the faith He’s already given us.

Joseph: An Unsuspecting Hero Series

Contributed by Perry Greene on Dec 11, 2012

Pandemic And Presidential Prophecy - Does God Give Ministry Mulligans When Prophecy Is Wrong?

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Mar 23, 2020

2020 was a year full of Prophecies about the ending of the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as the USA Presidential election, that can be added to the proliferation of so-called prophecies over the last 30+ years that were completely wrong.

2020 was a really bad year for self-proclaimed 'Prophets' of God (or should I say 'profits'?) . There was not one 'prophet' who prophesied a legitimate warning nor predicted that a worldwide pandemic was coming. However, there were numerous 'prophets' who ...read more
