The Power Of Touch Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 27, 2021

One of the great stories of Greek Mythology is that of Antaeus and Hercules. Antaeus, like Hercules, was of gigantic stature and marvelous strength.

The Duty Of Being In Debt Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 2, 2021

Self-Control Is The Key Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 5, 2021

The Babe And The Bell Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 8, 2021

It is no wonder that bells have become a symbol of Christmas, for God chose the bell to be a symbol of joy and victory in His presence. There are numerous types of bells, but all of them have some positive value, and thus, have something in common with the Babe of Bethlehem.

Bells are one of the common symbols of Christmas, because all through history, bells have been used to play the role of the angels on that first Christmas. Bells ring forth the message of joy. The bell and the babe of Bethlehem are linked in many ways. Nowhere is this more evident, than when you ...read more

End Times Evangelists

This Generation - What's Going On

Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Jun 6, 2022

It is not a lack of money or the lack of laws, but the lack of God in our society that has produced this violence and until we turn from our wicked ways, run back to God and His ways evil will continue to abound.
