Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 19, 2023

The enemy seems to freely roam through our country, the enemy's forces, the principalities, the powers, the demons, the unsaved humans who do their bidding seem to have free reign in the United States, but they're never safe

I'm always trying to understand our position in history. And it seems to me right now, our position in history is a moment that I remember from the Lord of the Rings, The Return of the King.

Psalm 19 Series

You Got Future Plans?

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Mar 3, 2009

It is good to have goals, but goals will disappoint us if we leave God out of them. There is no point in making plans as though God did not exist, because the future is in His hands. That man walks most safely who has the least confidence in himself.

The Man Of Sin And The Second Coming. Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 7, 2021

A man in Fort Worth, Texas is giving away flat gold plated two inch nails. All you have to do is pound it in the ...read more

Contributed by Howard Strickland on May 16, 2011

“Life is not a journey to the grave with intentions of arriving safely in a pretty well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming ... WOW! What a ride!” Just the word “Journey” sounds
