    based on 70 ratings
     | 9,179 views

    We need to get our minds off of sharing gossip, recipes, and social sagas and get them on sharing Jesus.

    WHO IS JESUS One of the saddest things happening in this country today has to do with churches. Today church houses are more of a social club than a place where God’s people gather together to repent, fellowship, praise, and worship Him. You hear people all of the time talking about what’s ...read more

    An Analysis Of "Blinded By Might: Can The Religious Right Save America”, Part 1

    Contributed by Frederick Meekins on Mar 3, 2025
     | 191 views

    In Blinded By Might: Can The Religious Right Save America, columnist Cal Thomas and pastor Ed Dobson examine what they believe to be the reasons resulting in the disparities between theory and practice in regards to this particular socio-political movement.

    One of the inevitable lessons of history is that political plans and agendas are seldom implemented as initially conceived irrespective of the nobility of intention or even piety motivating such aspirations. Evangelical conservatism, also commonly referred to as “The Religious Right”, would prove ...read more

    YOUTHS MAKING FRIENDS AND COPING WITH PEER PRESSURE It is no doubt that everybody needs friends but when you are young, friends can have more influence over how you dress, act, and think than your parents do.

    Fitting In

    Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on Feb 13, 2011
     | 7,294 views

    comedian Lenny Bruce gives our Christian psychology a metaphorical cattle prod shock when he said, “Every day people are straying away from the church and going back to God.’” I suspect it has a lot to do with fitting in.

    “Fitting In” John 17:11-19 I read the prologue to a story called Girl in the Middle. The girl is Kim Satinsky who is in eighth grade. She says, “You would think that being in a clique is fun but take my word for it: It’s not. They make me wear expensive things when I’m not really rich and tell me ...read more
