What Is Our Part?

Contributed by David Nolte on Jan 20, 2021

Sometimes we presume to play God's part and forget about our part.

Things are not always as we want them to be. Disappointments, disasters, distresses, diseases, dilemmas, discouragement and depression destroy our dreams and desires. Problems seem to be the norm and solutions seem inadequate. Our need is urgent, and we see no light at the end of the tunnel. ...read more

Losing Our Unction Series

Contributed by Donald Mcculley on Mar 19, 2019

Not losing his salvation, but his unction = divine authority/power/persuasion/influence! If that left him he would have nothing ...read more
