    Each of us lives in our own Bethany in a manner of speaking. And our Bethany is determined by whether we are allowing Jesus to come in, or we have too much life to give him time to give us even more life.

(Ephesians 5:8) because God is light. The apostle John said that one day, “we shall be like him, because we ...read more

    As I deliver this message, I want you to silently ask yourself, “Can I truthfully say that the Holy Spirit lives in me.”

    I'm not sure if I am the only one that does this or not. Growing up, if I was ever walking down a dark country road by myself, I found myself whistling, or singing, or humming an old familiar gospel song. It seemed like it made everything safer. It made me feel protected as I drew myself ...read more
