    A call to pursue your destiny in God by leaving your past, looking beyond the present, & living for the future. (Props to James Emery White from whom I shamelessly stole the three levels of living.

    THE ONCE AND FUTURE KING Have you ever had one of those days where you wanted so bad for it to just be over? Because you knew that tomorrow had to be better. Because there’s just no way that any two days could ever be this bad. Last summer my dad and I flew back to Wisconsin to hook up ...read more

    Now I have not seen to many millenniums’ come and go, as a matter of fact I can only think of one but to be totally honest I don’t know how successful we have been so far.

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Apr 22, 2025
     | 362 views

    Jeremiah looked at a scene of pathos – so many killed. He sees the LORD responsible for that but knew it was the unrepentant people’s fault. God was in great sadness over what happened to these people with faces harder than rock who did not repent.

    THE BOOK OF LAMENTATIONS – PART 12 – CRUEL SLAUGHTER BECAUSE OF SIN – A DISTRAUGHT PROPHET – FACES HARDER THAN ROCK - CHAPTER 2:21-22 In the last message Jeremiah was lamenting the sad and horrifying condition of his people, and asking the LORD why He had done that. The people’s own sin actually ...read more

    We excuse everything with "I don’t care", but when we see the eyes of those we have offended and hear them speak, we know that we have hurt them. When we see Christ and hear Him at the cross, we can no longer pretend that we don’t care.

    I “I don’t care.” That was the mechanism I used as a boy to fend off whatever punishment my parents gave. “You’re grounded.” “I don’t care”. “No allowance this week.” I don’t care.” And, to tell the truth, I didn’t care. I would just go to some quiet corner and get a book and read. I was ...read more

    Jeremiah points out that God will be faithful to you every step of the way. Each day when you rise, God will already be taking care of you. His grace, strength and love will be as much a daily part of you life as is breathing.

    The Book Of Lamentations – Part 32 – Infants Die Of Hunger; Rich And Opulent Now Devastated In The Street; Judah’s Sin Greater Than Sodom - Chapter 4:3-7 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 2, 2025
     | 201 views

    Devastating is Jeremiah’s description, for the suffering of infants is great. Judah sinned worse than Sodom. Once devastated, the rich became as poor. The world is in a lamentable situation, but refuses to look at the basic underlying cause - man’s sin against God. Repentance is needed!

    THE BOOK OF LAMENTATIONS – PART 32 – INFANTS DIE OF HUNGER; RICH AND OPULENT NOW DEVASTATED IN THE STREET; JUDAH’S SIN GREATER THAN SODOM - CHAPTER 4:3-7 These laments continue and there is some “what was” and “what is now” in this message.

     | 152 views

    Delay does not damage destiny, but bitterness does. You can survive years of waiting and still step into your calling with a poisoned soul. David’s secret weapon was his ability to lament honestly without abandoning trust.

    The Enemy You Can't See You know what's interesting about David's story? He survives the cave. He passes the test of honor. He refuses to kill Saul when he has the chance. Twice. He does everything right externally. But there's another enemy. An enemy that doesn't announce ...read more
