Forgiveness Is A Choice

Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 9, 2022

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Jul 18, 2022

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jul 28, 2022

The Miracles Of Jesus (Pt 1) Series

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Dec 15, 2025

For a couple of years, I’ve wanted us to study the miracles of Jesus together. So, I thought what a better way to start the new year.

The purpose is firstly, to learn about the miracles and secondly, to discover what they mean to us today. The plan is to spend a few weeks in the miracles, shift to the parables, and finish up with the miracles. When I first began preparing my study of the miracles, I figured I had three different ...read more

Peace On Earth?

Contributed by Brian Williams on Dec 18, 2022

Shalom speaks of wholeness, completeness, of well-being, tranquility, prosperity, and security. Rabbinical texts speak of achieving peace on a social level, the ...read more
