Psalm 1:1-6

Contributed by Dan Erickson on Nov 14, 2000

Even our most magnificent achievements seldom bring total satisfaction - Where do we go to find gusto, to find real joy in life?

Passionate Series

Contributed by Rick Duncan on Dec 8, 2005

Let’s get rid of some misconceptions of God. What if you knew that God really loves you? What will happen if you let that touch your heart?

God gets bad press. And I’m not so much talking about in Newsweek or in the PD or on NBC, ABC, or CBS. I’m talking about in your mind… and mine.

Few pictures from our family history speak more of family camaraderie than those of my dad with his 5 boys.
