Understanding The Story

Contributed by Dr. Jerry N. Watts on Oct 13, 2020

2020 has been a year of an unusual number of hurricanes, many have hit the USA. When a storm hits, lives are changed. We like to believe we will 'get over it' or 'get on with it', but storms have an impact, whether it is a weather type of storm OR a personal storm.

On the one hand, some were getting on TV speaking of how God could have nothing to do with events like this, at the same time, others came ...read more

Did God Plan All This?

Contributed by Michael Meyers on Sep 4, 2005

Is Katrina one way that God is cleansing the Earth of sin? Is it more important to make these assumptions, or to get out and help the displaced saints and draw the displaced lost ones to Christ?

In the Bible, we read this passage: "And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; ...read more
