The Courtroom Of Heaven Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 1, 2021

Job's Wife Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 1, 2021

No woman in history has been so severely condemned for so few words. She only steps on the stage for a moment, and she utters about ten words. On the basis of those few words she has been psychoanalyzed by preachers and scholars, and they have concluded, she was to Job what Judas was to Jesus.

Because of his great novel, War and Peace, Leo Tolstoy became one of the most famous Russians that ever lived. His fame and fortune did not bring him happiness, however, because of his wife.

God Made Me This Way Series

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Apr 7, 2021

A Full Time Father Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 7, 2021

Any father who fails to live his faith just as well save his breath. Children imitate what is, and not what ought to be. Children of bad fathers can still find good examples of faith to follow, but every father should want to be that ideal for his own children.

Contributed by Daniel Habben on May 23, 2021

God urges us to persevere in our faith, even as Job did.

Finish this sentence. “If you don’t succeed at first…try, try again.” Do you know who besides God best exemplifies that kind of perseverance? Satan.

The Pure In Heart

As we continue in the Beatitudes we come to the Pure in Heart. Can a person be pure in heart while on this earth? Will ONLY the pure in heart see God and if so how can we come to the point where we have a pure heart?

When You’re Falsely Accused

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 2, 2019

We've all been accused of something we didn't do. What should we do about it? Paul and Silas show us we can worship and wait, refrain from revenge, and give glory to God.

Fathers are head of the Household and is responsible for not only for the physical well-being of the family, but their spiritual well-being as well.

Homes with two moms or two dads is just as viable as the traditional home with one mother and one father. The fact is, credible studies show the opposite. To hear some feminists ...read more

Have You Forgotten To Be Grateful? Series

Contributed by Alis Cerrahyan on Jun 23, 2019

As citizens of heaven; we already know this is not the right territory for us. We are simply passing through. And if we are able to lead a few others along the way; God will continue to provide all that we need for our leadership.

If we have already made it to a point in life when we're kind of wondering about what else there is to life; that only means that we have already experienced a few terrifying moments, a few scabs as well as a few scars in the past. If we have been lucky enough to get up and dust ourselves off; ...read more
