    America is crazy with physical fitness and wellness in this life, but, what about fitness for a godly life here on earth and the continuation after death?

Up to 15 dead and an unknown number injured. In the past week there have been as many as four earthquakes ...read more

    Adapted from a sermon by Brian Atwood. Even with their limitations, Rhinos live a pretty satisfied life. We don’t have to know the future. Who cares that we can see only thirty feet ahead? Whatever’s at thirty-one feet needs to care that we’re coming.

    Have you ever thought about rhinos and their limitations. You see, rhinos can run thirty miles an hour, which is pretty fast when you consider how much weight they’re pulling. They’re actually faster than squirrels, which can run up to twenty-six miles an hour. And even then ...read more

    When Jesus says, “You are the salt of the earth” He is speaking of our conduct and character while yet living in this sin-cursed world. He is saying we are different or we ought to be different and live different than the rest of the world.

    “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.” (NIV.) Introduction Salt is a very precious commodity, especially during ancient times. It was so ...read more
