  • A Good Start Is Not Enough Series

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 24, 2021
     | 1,924 views

    A young boy came home from his first day of school and confessed to his father that he told a lie. The father asked why he did it and the boy said, "Well, dad, when they asked me where I was born it seemed so sissy to say The Woman's Hospital, so I said the Yankee Stadium." So often ...read more

     | 3,879 views

    No true child of God gets out of life without enduring some kind of pain, adversity, discomfort, or suffering. Each encounter we have with the difficulties of life need to be seen as lessons the Sovereign LORD teaches us to rely less on ourselves and more on His wisdom and grace.

    I've spent much time in thought and silent prayer, organizing in my mind and soul on how this message should be presented. I wanted to be certain that what I was about to say would be based primarily upon the Word of God and not merely a repeat of topics that I have covered in previous ...read more

    Is your Christmas preparation festive or frantic? What if you could narrow down preparation for Christmas to one, single thing? What is it? John the Baptist reminded the people of his day and us of the one thing necessary to be ready for Christ's coming!

    “Deck the halls with boughs of holly. Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la. 'Tis the season to be jolly. Fa-la-la-la-la…” Hold on! Tis the season to be JOLLY?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 12, 2025
     | 132 views

    Without repentance, revival becomes theater—faith without surrender. True awakening begins when hearts trade control for the cross of Christ.

    The Rubberneck Revival We’ve all done it—slowed down to stare at someone else’s wreck. Traffic crawls, brake lights flare, and curiosity pulls at us. We glance, we speculate, we shake our heads—and then we move on. That’s the spirit of this cultural moment. The world is rubbernecking religion. ...read more

    based on 34 ratings
     | 5,262 views

    If we want to be worthwhile, trustworthy, respected people, we must be available for life-shaping. That means to downplay disappointment, pick perceptive people, consider consequences, and accept affirmation.

    Worthwhile lives are made, not born. No one gets to get be great just by dumb luck or by the genes they inherited. Worthwhile people, trustworthy people, respected people are made. They are formed. They are shaped. Somebody has to take raw material and shape it into something useful. ...read more
