Distractions In Prayer And God’s Transcendence: Still, Small Voice

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Oct 23, 2017

The voice of Jesus that speaks in the gospel pages is the same voice that hides in the language of divine silence. But if we do not hear the one, we are unlikely to hear the other

Elijah's Crisis

Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Dec 1, 2020

The pandemic seems to go on forever. Instead of getting better, Covid is getting worse. Many are becoming discouraged and depressed because of lockdowns and other guidelines that give us limited mobility.

The Attitude Of The Heart

Contributed by Charlie Roberts on Nov 24, 2019

It’s in those times of trial, we are still to be thankful! The times we experience in the valleys of life, when we feel like all we have to hang onto is God. Those are the times we should realize the only thing we have ever had to hang onto is God!
