And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in ...read more

    As we continue to walk through the 23rd Psalm we see that David knew who would provide for him. The answer was God. Last week we looked at the first verse, “The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want.” We saw that this verse contains the beautiful promise that God will provide for our needs. We ...read more

    Why did God announce the birth of His Son to humble shepherds and ignore informing kings?

    “In the same region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
