    A brief devotional type sermon from Malachi 3

    Malachi 3:13-18 In this running “dialogue” between God and the People, Malachi pictures God as saying that the people had spoken harshly toward God.

    In the last several months I have learned more about bookkeeping than I ever wanted to know. Because the church is converting from bookkeeping by hand to an accounting software, and because our financial leadership does not yet have access to all of that, I began to record transactions on the ...read more

    It says that God heard them. Well, of course He did. Doesn’t the Bible teach that He hears our prayers? But wait a minute! It doesn’t say they were praying.
