Joseph, A Remarkable Father

Contributed by Kenneth Trent on Jun 11, 2007

To many, Joseph is a mere footnote in biblical history but we can be sure that God was as concerned with who would be the earthly “father” of His Son as He was of who would be His mother.

Contributed by Dave Kinney on Jun 28, 2008

If substantial change does not happen in the next 10 years, we will face calamity, terrorism, natural disasters and anarchy like we have never seen before in the history of this nation!

Faithfully Standing In Terrible Times

Contributed by Greg Nance on Nov 23, 2008

A brief look at the history of our Christian heritage reveals how serious the call of Christ has been taken in the past. Will we carry the torch of faith with the same courage today?
