Elijah's Question For Pagan America

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Aug 24, 2021

Just as the prophet Elijah challenged the people of Israel to make up their minds as whether to serve God or Ba'al, the same question needs to be brought before America today. The time has come to settle the issue and accept the consequences.

This nation is at the edge of the cliff. All it will take is one more step to go over, regulating America to the dustbin of history. For over sixty years since prayer and Bible reading were removed from the public schools by a poor interpretation of the First Amendment by a liberal Supreme Court ...read more

The Greatest Gift Of All Is For Everyone

Contributed by Craig Condon on Jan 2, 2016

God wants everyone to see and share his wisdom. Sometimes we can’t see that Christ came for everyone and can use everyone. We need to share our gifts and burdens just like Christ shared himself with everyone-both Jews and Gentiles.

The Proof Is In The "Putting" Series

Contributed by Perry Greene on Jan 11, 2016

Jesus offers us a costly freedom from our enslavement to sin. It cost his life and ours. When we live obedient lives, we learn the truth of God and enjoy his freedom. The proof of our discipleship is seen by what we "put off" and "put on" in our lives.

Are You Willing To Be Nobody

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jun 17, 2021

There is an old country song that said, “I’m chasin’ the neon rainbow, livin’ the honky tonk dream.” Very few artists find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow making their dream come true. Few make it to the ranks of a one hit wonder. Many will quit and get a “real job” or continue to ...read more
