How To Receive A Royal Reward Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 31, 2021

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on May 19, 2022

James encourages us to be all-in for God, responding "in faith" to testings, and steadfastly live in faithfulness toward God and people.

What Will Heaven Say About You?

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Oct 25, 2021

The devil is always trying to gain a foothold in our life, and he begins his initial onslaught of attacks with the temptation to sin. Temptation "can" be overcome! We must overcome it, so we can refrain from committing sin.
