Sell Your Stuff And Give To The Poor

Your soul -- not to mention your budget -- is in mortal danger as you approach the grocery store checkout lane. You say, "How?"

Save Me (Psalm 6)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jan 6, 2026

Harvest Is Bigger. God Does More.

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Oct 1, 2022

At our harvest festival we usually think of food, crops. But we need to expand our concept of harvest. We also need to recognize just how much God is involved in providing for us.

Today is our Harvest Thanksgiving service. It’s a time to thank God for the harvest. But what exactly are we thanking God for? I want to do two things today. The first thing is to encourage us to see harvest as something bigger than what the combine harvester picks up. The second thing is to ...read more

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 5, 2024

The King of Nineveh took off his robe and put on sackcloth and sat in ashes to signify his humble repentance before the Almighty God. There is nothing God can’t do with a repentant church and true revival will break forth when this happens.
