based on 44 ratings

Tough, arrogant and persistent, sin (like nutgrass) will (in Malachi’s words) be burnt to stubble to make way for the Kingdom. Don’t be childish -- our faith is not a game. The prophets have warned us -- and now, someone greater than a prophet is here.

The general belief is that if we can find that "special someone" we can cure our loneliness. Genesis 2 tells us why that isn’t true.

OPEN: Being as this is the Valentine Weekend I wanted to share a few quotes by children about love: - Glenn, age 7 - If falling love is anything like learning how to spell, I don’t want to do it. It takes too long. - Tom, age 5 - Once I’m in kindergarten, I’m going to find me a wife. - Kenny, age ...read more

They stood at the gravesite, looking at the flower-covered casket of their father. The committal service had been over for ten or fifteen minutes. Everyone else had gone back to the cars.

based on 4 ratings

Several years ago my mother was sitting in her living room reading the newspaper with ...read more
