    Ever since Jesus ascended back to heaven, His return has been eminent. Ever since that day, you could have said, “Jesus can return at any moment.” God wants His children to live like they expect Jesus to return at any time.

    "The Merry-Go-Round Of Time"

    Contributed by Paul Ray on Jul 22, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,942 views

    God's timing is sovereign, sufficient, seasonal, and surprising. God turns extreme calamity into extreme possibility in the pendulum swing from Good Friday to Easter morning. Change comes as an unfolding pattern rather than a mindless swing of events.

     | 5,989 views

    We Christians spend a lot of time learning how to witness. But, there comes a time when it's time to get off the bench, get in the game and use what we have learned to witness to those who are lost.

    Some years ago, I took a group to Glorieta, NM to attend a Sunday School training week. I became aware that a man by the name of Paul McClung was supposed to teach a specific witnessing strategy. Because of family connections to the McClung’s I decided I would participate in this particular ...read more
