Greatly Appreciated

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Sep 27, 2020

With social distancing, we've appreciated things like Face Time and Zoom. When businesses started opening up people appreciated them more than ever. But we shouldn't need separation in order to show appreciation.

GREATLY APPRECIATED To appreciate means to value something or somebody highly. On Wednesday night I asked, 'what have you come to appreciate more since COVID started'. Based on some of the answers it was clear that people are most appreciative of people and the things that helped them to ...read more

Stepping Into The New Year

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Dec 30, 2025

The literal suggestion to "refresh yourself" can be viewed as a metaphor for our spiritual life. Often, we seek refreshment and rejuvenation in worldly comforts or recognition, which may momentarily satisfy but do not truly fulfill the deeper needs of our soul.

1. REFRESH YOUR HEART 1 Kings 13:7 "The king said to the man of God, ‘Come home with me and refresh yourself, and I will give you a reward.’" In this narrative, King Jeroboam attempts to entice the man of God, who has just challenged the idolatrous practices at Bethel, with hospitality ...read more

Games People Play With God

Contributed by John Gaston on May 27, 2020

One-third of church goers have quit watching online services and experts predict they will never come back to church! They are falling away. They are playing games with God and we must alert them to the terrible consequences.

Cross-Contamination (Part One)

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jun 1, 2020

When you hear cross-contamination, it's not referring to something good. But today I'd like to turn that around. Normally we would do our best to avoid cross-contamination, but when it pertains to the cross of Christ, it's best to encourage cross-contamination.

CROSS-CONTAMINATION (part one) By definition, cross-contamination is the process by which bacteria or other microorganisms are unintentionally transferred from one substance or object to another, with harmful effect. You might typically hear this in reference to transferring bacteria between raw ...read more

A Clean Heart In A Dirty World

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Aug 11, 2020

I love the 51st Psalm. It’s a very personal prayer of Confession - Self-Examination - A Cry For Forgiveness. I can really identify with the author of this Psalm. Not with what he did, but with his own sense and need for forgiveness.

TITLE: A CLEAN HEART IN A DIRTY WORLD SCRIPTURE: PSALM 51:1-12 Out of all the 150 Psalms, I believe this is one of the most heart wrenching of them all. It is a heart filled and genuine account of David’s guilty heart. There is no real need to enlarge the circumstances, the heading tells the ...read more

Ang Pinaliligtas Awa Ng Diyos

Contributed by James Dina on Aug 31, 2020

ANG PINALILIGTAS AWA NG DIYOS ang pinakamababang antas ng awa, kung itatatwa ng Diyos ang pinaliligtas awa, itinatwa niya ang lahat ng awa. Ang mga anghel na nagkasala ay hindi nakasumpong ng awa, sila ay pinalabas ng Diyos sa impiyerno, upang ipagkaloob sa Paghuhukom (II ni Pedro 2:4)

ANG PINALILIGTAS AWA NG DIYOS "ang pag-ibig at awa ng PANGINOON ay walang katapusan. Iyan ang dahilan kung bakit hindi tayo lubusang nalipol. 23 Araw-araw ay ipinapakita niya ang kanyang habag. Dakila ang katapatan ng PANGINOON! . ...read more
