    Like the Magi, we are all on a star trek. Some are searching for something; some may be the star God uses to guide others to Jesus. The magi weren’t wise because they sought Jesus; we call them wise because they found Jesus.

    Saving America from our mess is bigger than who will be our next President. It is a prayerful dependence on God that comes by seeking God in his will; trusting God in his Grace; and Joining God in his Purpose.

Our hope is where it has always been, "In God We Trust" -- not our schemes/ourselves 2. Revival Prayer In 1857 there was a 46 year old man ...read more

    Jonah as a prophet of God did not give God the rightful place. When we obey God, serve Him alone, and set aside all that displeases Him, we will truly honor God and give Him the rightful place in our lives.

    We read in Jonah 4:7, “But God appointed a worm at the rising of the dawn of the next day, and it struck the plant, and it withered.” (LITV) As Jonah enjoyed the shade of the plant that God had prepared for him, the Lord appointed a worm that obeyed God’s bidding, and ate up the plant, so that it ...read more

    Most wars are fought for one of three reasons—or a combination of this reasons: territory, ideology, theology. The word “territory” doesn’t always mean land. The Pharisees had carved out a territory, which they intended to defend at all costs (John 11:45-53).
