    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 23, 2021
     | 2,014 views

    Is there really life after death? Or is this life all there is? It's a question that we ignore, we toss aside, and eventually ponder. It's a question that draws out fear and emotional outrage. It's a question that affects how we live and what we live for.

    The Pharisees: Stuck In Correctness Series

     | 5,003 views

    It is easier to be smug than satisfied, to be correct than compassionate, to be religious than real. What we need to do is to cry, "Lord forgive my sin."

    The surest formula for unhappiness is have to be right, all of the time. If you are expected to be one hundred percent correct, never making a mistake, no blunders allowed, then you are asking for a serious heart attack, for high blood pressure, and for plain old unhappiness. It’s an awesome burden ...read more

    The preaching of hell is not a popular subject and the modernist preacher and church have eliminated all such preaching from their pulpit. However silent they may remain about hell, hell still exist and people every day are dying and going to hell.

    Prayer is not a monologue but a conversation between us and God. Those in contact with God have vision, they have a power within that can change people around them, they have authority with God and insight into what God is doing.

    I Don't Need God!

     | 7,073 views

    There are too many people today that don't understand, they truly need God! God needs to be the biggest part of our lives in whatever we may do. For ourselves, our families, our friends, our work... we need to make God a part of all these things. Put God back into your Life!

    The other day I was sitting and speaking with a stranger and, as it always seems to do, the topic of God came up. I guess it’s probably because most people I know, know me. They know my beliefs; they know what I do; and they know of my passion for God. This gentleman, a little older than myself, ...read more
