The Crucifixion In Psalm 22 Series

Contributed by Joseph Marshall on Nov 21, 2022

This Psalm is one of the most amazing Messianic Psalms. This is a Psalm of David, and yet (like most prophetic writings) the words move beyond the immediate meaning and refer to something grander yet future – in this case, the sufferings of Jesus upon the cross.

Funeral Message For Victim Of Suicide

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021

The Paradox Of Burdens Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 19, 2021

Paul's apparently conspicuous contradictions, and puzzling paradoxes are the result of his God-given ability to see the whole of life, and not just some of its parts in isolation.

In South Dakota a man by the name of August had a clothing store he was going to close up. His was not one of those perpetual year around closing sales.

Third we enter into the main section of the book - apocalyptic literature takes over from epistle. ...read more
