    The account of Noah and the Ark is more than just a story. It is an historical fact which speaks to our very day. There are several lessons we can learn about Noah's Ark.

    Marriage Is A Triangle

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 13, 2010

    January 1988. Marriage is more than a contract between two people. It must involve God and working toward the purposes of God; otherwise it is a divorce, whether the law is involved or not.

    There are all sorts of reasons not to preach this sermon! There area all kinds of problems kicked up because I have felt led to conclude our series of studies in the prophet Malachi with one of his most pointed and deliberate passages: his passage on marriage and divorce. Getting into this topic ...read more

    True wisdom is a gift from God. It’s worth more than riches or power. But by itself it’s not enough. We also need to remain faithful to God.

    When God wants to change a community He is more concerned about whether the hearts of His people are ready to be used then with those who don’t know Him yet.

    God’s voice do we really believe He can speak to us and that we can hear Him? It’s funny because people talk about hearing from God all the time, but do we really expect to hear from Him, audibly? Today we are going to look at a passage where the Luke says that the Apostle Paul had a vision where ...read more
