    As David stood in bewilderment of the lack of courage among the men of Israel, he asked the question: Is there not a cause? This question remains relevant today. Surely you will agree there is a cause, and we must be willing to stand.

    Is There Not a Cause? I Samuel 17: 17-29 Often this chapter is preached in light of David’s miraculous defeat of the mighty giant, Goliath. That is a wonderful testimony to the presence and power of the God we serve; but today I want to look at the events that led up to David’s ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 31, 2025
     | 153 views

    How much has changed! We take a journey back to the 1960s to see how songs expressed that generation. Who remembers those times? This message looks too, at the present, and some similar concerns but in a different dress. The word of God is our answer to pessimism and hopelessness.

    BACK TO THE 1960s DOWN MEMORY LANE, THEN BACK TO THE PRESENT! This article may be a trip down memory lane but in hindsight, it reflects the present. Some of us are still around to remember the lyrics presented here. Music usually reflects the atmosphere of the time, more so among the younger ...read more
