In this passage, Jesus illustrates the kingdom of heaven through the Parable of the Ten Virgins. Five of them were wise and five were foolish. As we walk through this passage, we'll ...read more

    Hosea shares with us a beautiful description of the unconditional love of God the Father for his children, and his continual call to repent and return to his embrace.

    The Tender Love of God I. How do you picture God? When God was first described to you, what were you told about him?

    The enemy mocking and hissing at a defeated and downtrodden people was the delight of passers-by, but persecuted Christians suffer that today increasingly. It’s an ugly world when sin is in control. Wickedness these days is galloping. Do not oppose the Jew or Israel.

    THE BOOK OF LAMENTATIONS – PART 10 – A DEFEATED NATION MOCKED AND HISSED AT – GOD’S WORD NEVER RETURNS EMPTY - CHAPTER 2:15-17 Jeremiah is sometimes called “the weeping prophet,” and I like to think of him as one of the most passionate writers in the Old Testament, in fact, in all of scripture. ...read more

    Our freedom comes with a price. We are no longer our own. And the only appropriate response is to do what God wants from us in return.

    Hostages have been much in the news these days, for good reason. The most horrific fate is that of the Israelis kidnapped in October 2023. Many have died; some are still in captivity.
