The family had no savings and about $75,000 in debt. They had been tithing, but said if they stopped ...read more

    Job 3

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Sep 16, 2019
     | 5,911 views

    Job had kept his hurt within himself because there was no one else with which to share it, but when three of his friends came to him, he finally began to vent. Chapter 3 shows us that when we are unable to understand God's reasons, we must still trust in His wisdom.

    We have been talking about the book of JOB, which some scholars believe to be the oldest book of the bible, and written by Moses as he wandered the deserts. So far, in chapters 1 and 2, we see where Satan got permission from God to attack Job. The only stipulation was that Satan would not cause ...read more

    Do You Get It?

     | 1,449 views

    There is nothing that Jesus cannot do. But we can only get the message if we don’t let ourselves be distracted by trivia, and if our relationship with God is healthy.

    One of the reasons people loved to listen to Jesus was that he talked about things they knew about, scenes and events from their everyday lives. But the lives of the people Jesus talked to can seem very far away from our own, sometimes. His illustrations don’t always mean that much to us. What’s ...read more
