    Jesus is coming soon. Prepare daily, own your faith, and don’t delay. Midnight is coming, but grace is here now.

    Picture the scene Jesus paints. Night has settled in. A moon is rising lazy and late. Shadows stretch across the village road. Somewhere nearby, a bride waits with trembling excitement. Her friends surround her with music and laughter and nervous energy. They do not know when the moment will ...read more

    Jesus invites us to stay ready for His return by daily renewing our walk with Him and keeping our spiritual lamps filled.

    There are some lessons life teaches the hard way. Sometimes they arrive wrapped in sweat and bruises on a Friday night football field. A friend of mine told me a story from when he played high school football. He was tough, competitive, the kind of kid who would try to tape a broken finger back in ...read more

    Heaven Farm Insurance

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 30, 2025
     | 161 views

    Jesus offers full coverage for eternity—paid in His blood, active by faith, canceled only by neglect. Heaven Farm is here.

    If you turn on the radio long enough, you’ll hear it: a cheerful jingle promising that when disaster strikes, your insurance company will be there for you. The slogan’s so familiar it’s almost comforting. But let’s be honest—companies go out of business. Policies lapse. Premiums rise. “Coverage ...read more

    Be careful how you answer!

    The Bride And The Other Woman

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 20, 2026

If it’s about institutions, we can debate. Those are comfortable conversations. They let us think clearly without being personally ...read more
