An October 2020 survey of self-described Christians in America by Arizona Christian University revealed the 52% of ...read more

Affirmed And Affirming

Revive Us Again Series

Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Oct 13, 2021

There is nothing more powerful in sparking revival than a visitation from God! An outpouring of the Holy Spirit is born out of a season of prayer and repentance after having experienced some form of hardship or depraved condition.

May each soul be rekindled with fire from above. Hallelujah! Thine the glory! Hallelujah! ...read more

Third City Of Refuge - Hebron Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 1, 2022

The reason for such details about these cities of refuge was these were a fore-shadow of the coming of the Lord Jesus who will be the refuge for all of mankind. Nothing in the bible was recorded without a purpose, but every word that is written has a reason.

Just A Little Give And Take

Contributed by Eloy Gonzalez on Feb 29, 2004

First Sunday in Lent: Temptation is often the enticement to compromise, to engage in just a bit of ’give and take.’ Jesus would have none of it when satan tempted Him. Nothing would deter Jesus from the Cross.

The art of the compromise – of give and take – is valued by many people. You scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours. Watch the consummate politician on campaign trail – they live by give and take. Whey even a good football game starts out as a battle of give and take. One team will fight and ...read more
