One day, he walked into the restaurant with a full-grown ostrich behind him, and as he sat there, the waitress came ...read more

    Spiritual Veterans

     | 2,094 views

    We live in a nation where respect and honor are not top priorities. For example, respect for the elderly is something today that is missing in our society.

    . We see a lot of rudeness, and much of it is directed toward the elderly. Illus: Did you hear about the grandmother that was going to ride a bus downtown with her grandson? She got on the bus, and the bus driver was very rude to her. As she got on the bus with her grandchild, the bus driver ...read more

    Often, on the national television news, we see a report that deals with some hurricane or tornado that struck a certain region in the United States.

    They show us miles and miles of homes that have been scattered like trash from a trash can that has been turned over, and the wind is blowing the trash everywhere. When these storms strike, the first buildings that are destroyed are those that were built by contractors who were bad builders. ...read more

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 14, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,924 views

    Failure to respect the elderly within a given society ensures God’s censure. Modern attitudes spell the death of contemporary western society, unless we return to the attitude and practise outlined in God’s Word.

    The world today sees the church as powerless and irrelevant in our culture and the reason is due in great part because of our failure to live life differently than the world around us.

    Contributed by William Mouser on Mar 11, 2005

     | 3,634 views

    The "Faith Hall of Fame" shows us how we recognize faith -- not by the success or failure of those who have it, nor by their joy or sadness, but by the way they clothed their faith in works.

    "Contract Or Covenant?"

    Contributed by Jerry Depoy on Apr 30, 2004
    based on 19 ratings
     | 5,748 views

    Most people live in a "Contract World," and not in a "Covenant World." Contracts are written with the idea of failure in mind. That is, "What if things do not work out?" A covenant comes with the word, "Everlasting."

    "Contract or Covenant?” Jonathan and David, best friends. Jonathan needed a friend... I have often wondered why Jonathan himself did not take on the giant Goliath? He displayed the right kind of faith and courage needed for the mission in 1 Samuel 14 when he and his armour bearer took on the ...read more
