The Day Of Pentecost

Contributed by Ivy Drafor-Amenyah on May 25, 2023

The Day of Pentecost marks the beginning of an authentic ministry for the disciples of Jesus, and we need such an experience to be effective in ministry, especially as we prepare people to come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.

I Pledge Allegiance To A Hiding God

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 7, 2002

The recent "under God" court decision is inconsequential. Far better to pledge allegiance to a God who does not need publicity and lip service, but who points us to acts of justice, liberation, and witness.

In every age there are those who feel they need to help God out of hiding. God, it seems, is never without public relations agents, who want to help Him get His name out. They have their own reasons – some of them well-intentioned, and some of them selfish – but the truth is that God does ...read more

The Days Of Thyatira Series

Contributed by Ken Henson on Sep 24, 2017

I know your works, and the love, and the faith, and the service (deaconate), and the patience (endurance), and your latter works are greater ...read more
