It all occurs as Israel observes what is known as the Passover. At that time they sprinkled the blood of a lamb on the ...read more

Thomas: My Favorite Apostle

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 31, 2022

The apostle Thomas gets the short end of the stick when we read about him and his "doubts" in the Gospel of John. He is more like you and I than we want to admit, and his story affirms it.

When we read of where Jesus chose the Twelve men who would be known as the Apostles, we need to step back for a moment and realize that these men were ordinary working -class, salt-of-the-earth, rough around the edge individuals who had jobs ranging from catching fish to collecting taxes to a ...read more

Revival begins when the eyes turn from vanity to the Word, restoring focus, holiness, and joy through Christ’s living presence.

It’s the sigh of one ...read more
