    Contributed by Michael Brown on Nov 29, 2025
     | 354 views

    I wrote this message as a devotional to share at our next deacon's meeting. Our church is one of MANY churches without a full-time pastor. It's been over a year & a half since the previous pastor left & we need to remember the HOPE we have in Christ!

Hope is nothing but a dried-up skeleton. But that doesn’t mean we should shrug our shoulders & give ...read more

    A shepherd must NOT be driven by the world’s agenda or ideology or greed. Righteous paths today are more difficult with all the liberal theology (satanic denial), WOKE, and Marxism pervading society and the church. The pastor must be skilled to lead the sheep in correct ways.
