Contributed by Jeff Strite on Mar 26, 2022

The woman I preached the funeral for asked me to lead those at the funeral in two Christians hymns. And in those hymns was the power of a risen Christ.

Architecture Of The Church

Contributed by Charles Mallory on Aug 24, 2023

Jesus establishes Peter as the first building block of the Church upon his confession that Jesus is the Son of God. We, too, have that same opportunity to become a building stone in the Church.

CHURCH! THAT WORD, ALONE, BRINGS ABOUT MANY DIFFERENT IDEAS AND UNDERSTANDINGS. I HAVE HEARD IT DESCRIBED AS JUST A BUILDING OR AS A PLACE CHRISTIANS GO ON SUNDAY. PERHAPS, THOSE DEEPER IN FAITH WOULD CALL IT A GROUP OF BELIEVERS. WE ALL HAVE DIFFERENT CONCEPTS OF WHAT “CHURCH” MEANS TO US. IF WE ...read more

Sing!

Contributed by Dennis Fox on Jan 9, 2023

Ever wonder why the Angles are singing? Hymns are actually a very powerful prayer. In fact, a song, a Christmas Carol, was even able to stop a war. The power of songs of praise can change hearts and boost our faith.

One of my favorite things to do at Christmas as a child was a couple days before, my little brother and I would have a large candle, and we would go from house to house with a hymnal and go caroling. We would pick a few of our favorites like Silent Night, Oh Come O Ye Faithful, and Joy to the ...read more
