    Contributed by Patrick Nix on Aug 1, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,865 views

    Faith is not something we can muster up or dig down deep to find. It is the fruit of God in the life of His surrendered child. In God, this is called foreknowledge. In us, it is the assurance of His foreknowledge. In Him, this is omniscience. For the

    Faith can be the difficult to find when you need it most. It is in the darkness of temptation and in the lonely, sinful distance we need its light most. In Ephesians 2:8, Paul reminds us that faith “is the gift of God” and that it comes from God – it is not something we can muster up or dig down ...read more

    What Is Your Name

    Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on Oct 2, 2008

     | 3,367 views

    Discovering your name sometimes requires experiences of dark nights and aloneness. God must test our behaviour. He pushes us to see things that are not good for us, things that must change. He loves us far to much to leave us to our destructive behaviour

Lee and asked if he’d let them use his name in their scheme. They promised that if he did he would become rich. Astounded, Lee ...read more

    Everybody on earth desires freedom. I do, and if I were a betting man, I’d gamble that you do, too! But many people don’t understand what freedom is or what freedom is not.
