    Abraham’s intercession for Sodom is a classic example of how we should pray. God was willing to spare Sodom for 10 godly people because Abraham interceded.

    When Jesus says, "A time is coming and now has come when true worshippers will worship the Lord in spirit and in truth," he was giving us some insights into worship.

    “Worship” John 4:7-23 If you were to ask 100 people what worship is, you’d probably get 100 different answers. The primary reason for this would be the wide range of backgrounds and experiences.

Paul said that,"in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose" (Romans 8:28). But yet there is ...read more

    In 2 Chronicles 7:14 it says, "if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves". If we are going to have revival there needs to be a humbling of the people of God.

    Do we truly honor Memorial Day? We have lost much of the intended meaning of this "holy-day" since it was established in the aftermath of the Civil War. However, God’s Word gives clear instruction on the true meaning a memorial should include. Discover it

    This is the fourth set of words Jesus utters from the cross. It is a pivotal phrase and is purposefully the fourth statement he made. While this utterance could call the relationship between God and Jesus into question, it actually melds it and shows how
