The Power Of Faith

Contributed by James Snyder on Jan 15, 2018

When I begin to understand the power of faith, I begin to appreciate what the Christian life is really all about.

Some people like to refer to themselves as a man or woman of faith. Yet, if you query them along that subject you discover they have no idea what a man or woman of faith is. Faith has become just a word we use when thinking of somebody who is religious. Their faith is rooted in their religion. ...read more

Developing A Personal Walk With God

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Oct 22, 2017

In Moses' frank conversation with God, we learn to pray for those who rebel against God, hunger for the presence of God, long for more of God, and shine with the light of God. As we seek after God, God will reveal more of himself to us.

Exodus 33:12-23 Developing a Personal Walk with God Today’s conversation between Moses and God is pretty gutsy. Moses seems very comfortable with God, even to challenge God: “You don’t go with us, we don’t go!” Moses is praying real prayers here, nothing held back. And what is even more amazing ...read more

The New Versus The Old Series

Contributed by James Snyder on Apr 22, 2013

Every time some tragedy happens, people get very religious. The problem with getting religious is it does not last very long. Once the crisis has calmed down and things get back to normal, religion seems to go out the window. The reason this happens so often is that religion is never the answer it ...read more
