    1) Praise for the Resurrection (Psalm 30:1-5), 2) Prayer for the Resurrection (Psalm 30:6-12)

    My Father told me when I was just a pup, "Son, the very first play is the most important. You must show your opponent who is the boss!"

    It was good advice and I have never forgotten what he had said. Of course he was referring to football but it applies to most things, especially sports. Satan thinks he is the boss. He wants to boss you around in the RING of LIFE. From the time you are a young adult, he tries to impress his ...read more

    Each one of us had experience down times, troubles and trials. Rising up must be our immediate action. God's help will always be available to those who call on Him. He will lift us up, if we never lose heart.

    Faith in Christ enables us to stand up for him.

    An elderly man decided to oppose the system. He wasn’t being a rebel. He wasn’t out on a mission to be different. He was only following the Word of God that had passed down to him.
