    We Americans have made it our goal to seek "The Good Life". We do that by earning and spending. But God would rather give us "The Better Life" that comes from earning and giving.

    One of the main things I think that we and all other people in America are searching for is the good life. Am I right? I mean, we all want to have a good home, a good car or two, good vacations, good children, good friends, good food, and so on. Who wouldn’t want such a good life? ...read more

    I have met some believers who are convinced that sickness should never take place in the life of any believer. Some Christians will even go so far as to judge another Christian who is faced with an illness. I don’t claim to have all of the answers t

There have been many who were known to be “as healthy as a horse” or (seemed to be) “never sick a day in their life”. But even those will face an ...read more
