Gratitude Comes From Attitude

Contributed by Ezekiel Ette on Nov 18, 2017

What we remember is a choice and gratitude is an attitude. Choose the things that bring thankfulness not those that elicit anger, regret and sadness.

Our King's Glad Face Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 16, 2021

Palm Sunday is a day of great paradox, for it was a day of such contrasting emotions. Jesus was such a glad king; such a sad king, and such a mad king.

The final week of the life of Abraham Lincoln has an amazing parallel to that of the final week of Jesus. From Palm Sunday to Good Friday is only 5 days, yet in that 5 days we go from the scene of the triumphal entry of the King to the scene of the tragic exit of the King on the cross. Listen to ...read more

Our Blessed Hope

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Jun 6, 2023
