Is This All There Is To Life?

Contributed by Russell Metcalfe on Mar 18, 2021

Abraham discovered that real LIFE is about walking with God! Getting to know God! And in the text Paul tells us that God still wants people to walk with Him by faith.

The Life Of Excuses

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 16, 2022

Some are much better at telling lies than others are. Some people lie so much, that you know they are lying if their ...read more

A Life Unwasted

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 23, 2022

When human beings ignore the law of God, set up for our benefit, laid down so that human families and societies will be places to grow and prosper, everything is constantly on the verge of utter disorder.

A Life Unwasted The other evening I was watching an old movie, and by that I mean from the eighties of the last century. It wasn’t particularly good, but it dramatized a lot about the culture of Washington, DC residents living at the top of the socio-economic heap at the time. One of the ...read more

Some people describe others by saying, “They have an attitude problem.”

Illus: There used to be a song that some churches in the South liked to sing called, “I woke up this morning feeling fine! I woke up with heaven on my mind.” But I have a confession, sometimes I wake up and I am not feeling fine, and I certainly do not have heaven on my mind. Generally, when we ...read more

The Injustices Of Life

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on May 18, 2022

Life can throw many hard things at us. We may even be tempted to let our hope in God fade. We want to scream, “Where is the justice?” As we move along a little further in Joseph's life God would want us to be encouraged that he will always see his children through.

Today I want to talk about the injustices of life. Have you walked through a season when you couldn't seem to catch a break? Did you ever wonder if good days would ever return? Maybe you lost a job around the same time a loved one died. Or you were going through a painful divorce just as ...read more

When non-Christians were asked what is their biggest barrier to faith, the number one answer among Americans was the following, “I have a hard time believing a good God would allow so much evil or suffering in the world.”

Today, we conclude a four-week look at one of the most interesting people in history – the man named Job. Job is a really good man. God even calls him, “…a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil …”(Job 1:8). He’s so good in fact, that God tells Ezekiel years later: ...read more
