    Just as the church at Ephesus had its opportunity to respond to the Lord's call, so do we. We too are called to be a shining light for Christ and share the love of God with others. Let us consider the lessons we learn from the church at Ephesus and seek to renew our love for Christ.

    Visionary View: Respond to Christ’s Call to love Today, as God's church, we draw nearer each day to the return of our Lord Jesus Christ. Some of you may search for signs of His imminent return and find many Biblical prophecies fulfilled already. Yet, remember Jesus' own words in Mark ...read more

    What betrayal convicts the heart of man?---not the heart of the man who committed the offense, supposedly but the one who suffered the offense. Is the heart of the sufferer on the mercy seat as much as the offender who committed the offense, supposedly.

    JESUS by Dr. Gale A. Ragan-Reid (March 13, 2015) “And he answered and said, “He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.” (St. Matthew 26:23, King James Version (KJV) [The last supper]. “But, behold, the hand of him that ...read more

    Compassion comes first with Jesus.

    The gospel writers did not record for us every moment of the life of Christ. At the end of his account, John tells us that “...there were also many other things which Jesus did...”.

    Paul listed all of the things the church was doing wrong. How embarrassing that must have been for anyone else who read this letter from the Apostle Paul. But this is what happens when someone gets to read the mail of our church.
