Contributed by Denis O'callaghan Ph.d. ,th.d., D.d., D. Phil. on Sep 8, 2012

Sixth Sunday Of Easter/Mother’s Day--“I Have Called You Friends” John 15:15

Colorful Marriages

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Dec 6, 2019

I love a chocolate and vanilla twist soft yogurt cone. Mixing flavors can bring about a beautiful and tasteful marriage experience. Yet, you do not mix gas and oil or saved and unsaved or one sect with another without peril.

I saw an article on interracial marriage and since race has been a big issue in recent days I figured I would say just a bit on this topic. First of all, race as we use the term is really an evolutionary term and should not even be considered or used by believers. There are no races. There is but ...read more
