    Jesus opened the eyes of the travelers just as he opens our eyes as we travel the road of life.

    Text: “Then their eyes were opened and they knew Him; and He vanished from their sight” (Luke 24:29).

    There’s no perfect church. Jesus commends a faithful church—Philadelphia—for keeping His Word and not denying His name. The question for us: not “Are we perfect?” but “Are we faithful?”

    Have you ever heard this expression before? “If you’re looking for the perfect church, and you find it – if you find the perfect church – well you better not join it because it won’t be perfect anymore.” I love this. And the reason is because no one is perfect, right? There’s no such thing as a ...read more
