How Majestic Is Your Name

Contributed by David Zachrich on May 12, 2023

When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the ...read more

For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. That’s a good summary of what we see in our ...read more

Spot Of Leprosy (Hix)

Contributed by Jimmy Haile on Mar 20, 2014

(Adapted from an outline by Mark A. Copeland) Following a night and morning of torture, ridicule, and mockery, Jesus was taken away to be crucified (Mark 14:53-15:25). For six long, horrendous, cruel hours He hung on the cross, and to add insult to injury, He heard the continuing mockery ...read more
