    When we get saved, each of us is given our own piece of Holy Spirit fire.What we do with that fire after that is up to each individual. Either we keep it burning brightly or let our fire go out.

    Redefining The Family Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jul 24, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,030 views

    What is God’s Family and how do you join it? Jesus redefines family, contrasts it with our earthly family and tells us how to join and what it’s like in his family.

    The idea of family is always morphing in our society. Just in the past fifty years we’ve gone from June Cleaver to Uma Thurman. In the 1950’s the woman wore pearls and waited in high heels for her man to come home so she could greet him with a martini, a paper and dinner on the table. Today in ...read more

The road carried us across the dry plateau until we reached Cappadocia—a landscape so strange and beautiful it looked as though it had been shaped by another hand. Wind and rain had carved towers ...read more

    In many cultures widows are never considered as strong, successful and influential women but God gives great honour to many widows in The Bible as they teach all humanity the deeper lessons of life by their simple acts of faith in God Almighty.
