You Might Need An Awe Adjustment Series

Contributed by Dr. Dave Hartson on Jul 17, 2020

Make no mistake about it, God is gracious and will give me as many do-overs as I need, but I want to limit them because I know every time I drift away from God, it hurts Him, and it hurts me, I suffer consequences too. So, I want to keep the course. I want to keep the faith.

Psalms 27, 37, And 84 Series

Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Mar 7, 2020

Passages in different locations are often interconnected in such a way that one avenue of thought springs from another. Although these psalms were not written with the intent that they be interconnected by us today, they collectively express a message relevant today.

In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated.

The Lord Is My Shepherd (Part Two)

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Mar 16, 2020
