    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 16, 2022
     | 2,517 views

    Some time ago, a newspaper in Tacoma, Washington, carried the story of Tattoo, the basset hound. Tattoo didn't intend to go for an evening run, but when his owner shut his leash in the car door and took off with Tattoo still outside the vehicle, he had no choice.

    A motorcycle officer named Terry Filbert noticed a passing vehicle with something that appeared to be dragging behind it. As he passed the vehicle, he saw the object was a basset hound on a leash. "He was picking them up and putting them down as fast as he could," said Filbert. He ...read more

    Sermon # 8 - Time To Wake Up Series

    In the midst of a serious storm, Jonah was blissfully asleep unaware of the predicament of his fellow passengers caused by his disobedience. Is it possible that the church too is asleep at a time when we have to wake up to fulfill the Great Commission that Jesus gave us?

    We read in Jonah 1:5, “And the mariners were afraid, and cried every one unto his god; and they cast forth the wares that were in the ship into the sea, to be lightened of them. But Jonah had gone down into the lower part of the ship; and he lay, and was fast asleep.” (Darby) This is the ...read more

    If we observe people these days a majority live as though they are going to live in this world forever. There is no fear of God, no thought about God’s judgement, and a majority live as though their lives on earth is permanent.

    For today’s meditation we will look at Matthew 13:10-11, “The disciples asked him, "Why do you use stories as illustrations when you speak to people?" Jesus answered, "Knowledge about the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you. But it has not been given to the ...read more

    In the same way that Radio waves and Telephone waves are running through the air and in order to receive them we must have a transmitter so it is in the Spiritual realm with the spoken word of faith.
