    The prophets of the Old Testament said: · This baby would come to save the world from sin. · This world of darkness would be given the Light that would shine forever. · This little baby would bring peace to a world in tumult, destruction and chaos.

Mankind has always looked forward to Christmas. Do you know who were the first to get excited about Christmas before it took place? Think ...read more

    My uncle used to say, "Just because a man takes his boots off to go wadin’ don’t mean he plans to swim the Atlantic." That’s smart. When it comes to Angels my advice is study the Scriptures. Let’s examine it together!

    Have you ever felt like someone was watching you from a distance? Maybe, standing over your shoulder? It wouldn’t be the first time and it won’t be the last! The longer I live, the more I’m convinced Angels surround us all. Some way they are involved in the turning of this world as well as ...read more
