    There’s Always More

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 15, 2023
     | 2,352 views

    Even when we feel drained physically and financially, we still need to offer what resources we do have - and in so doing, find that we can do more than we thought.

    I have a lot of fellow feeling for the disciples in today’s story. I expect all of us who have put so much time and effort into VBS do, too. It’s done! We can put our feet up and have something to eat, talk about how everything went, see how well we did, maybe get a stroke or two for the old ego. ...read more

    A wise Bible teacher once said, sooner or later, God will bring self-sufficient people to the place where they have no resource, but him- No strength, No answers, nothing but him. Without God’s help, they’re sunk.

    Nothing Left But God. 2 Chronicles 20. A wise Bible teacher once said, sooner or later, God will bring self-sufficient people to the place where they have no resource, but him- No strength, No answers, nothing but him.

    Today, if You Will Hear His Voice: An Exposition of Psalm 95 The Book of Psalms is considered to be the Hebrew hymnal. Actually, there are five separate collections of them.

    When The Running Stops

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 13, 2026
     | 134 views

    When life’s motion slows and striving no longer sustains us, God reveals that true strength comes from knowing Him, not from constant movement.

    I’ve done a little to-ing and fro-ing in my day. I traveled around the world five times by the age of eleven. So movement came early for me. Packing, leaving, arriving, starting over—those weren’t dramatic events; they were normal. Motion felt natural. Stillness had to be learned later. So ...read more

    When we are yoked to Him the trials of life are easily borne.

    A CALL TO THE WHOSOEVER. Matthew 11:28-30. There is a fine line between the Sovereignty of God and human responsibility. God reveals Himself to whomsoever He will, 'for so it seemed good in Thy sight' (cf. Matthew 11:26; cf. Deuteronomy 7:7-8; John 15:16; 1 John 4:19). Yet Jesus calls, ...read more

     | 175 views

    The Cure for Covetousness. Creation, redemption, and completion all declare one truth— Christ has provided everything we need.

    Introduction The Sabbath has always been God’s weekly reminder that enough is enough. It whispers through the quiet hours: You can stop striving now; you already have Me. And yet, in a world that never stops chasing more — more success, more recognition, more possessions, more happiness — it’s ...read more

    The Mystery Of The Missing Day

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 9, 2025
     | 187 views

    Rediscovering the gift we forgot. A day that disappeared from our calendars long before it vanished from our hearts.

    Part 1 – The Beginning of Rest We live in a restless world. We measure our worth by how many emails we answer before breakfast, how many miles we drive, how many boxes we check before nightfall. The very first full day of human existence was nothing like that. The first sound Adam and Eve ever ...read more

    Held By Grace

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 10, 2025
     | 298 views

    Grace doesn’t just forgive; it holds. We stop reaching for a God who might forgive and rest in a God who already has.

    >> The Reach The human heart was made for connection—with God, with one another, with meaning that outlives the dust.

     | 190 views

    Hope for Those Who Sleep in Christ. Death for the believer is not an ending but a pause— until resurrection morning awakens every promise.

    There are few sounds on earth more sacred than quiet weeping at a graveside. A mother pressing a flower into the soil, a husband lingering after everyone else has gone, a child holding onto the edge of a coffin too big for her small hands. In moments like these, the air feels thinner—heaven seems ...read more

    Grace is the oxygen of heaven—opening the heart, empowering the climb, and transforming resistance into surrender so we can breathe freely at God’s altitude.

    >>> The Voice We Ignore There is a universal gesture that needs no translation. It crosses cultures, languages, borders, and time zones. Teenagers use it. Grandkids use it. Some husbands use it. And nearly every wife has perfected it. It’s the motion that says: “I am not receiving ...read more
