Contributed by Delray Lentz on Jan 25, 2023

Today we will be in the book of Colossians. About a month ago, something in Colossians caught my eye, that I wanted to share with you today. In the last month I’ve read Colossians several times. I’ve read it 5-6 times in the last week alone. I’m talking about all 4 chapters y’all!

Hope In Suffering

Contributed by Hiram Withers on Nov 22, 2018

Psalm 130 does not give us insight as to why we suffer, it gives us the reality that we will suffer, it is not a matter of if but when we suffer. It gives us insight into how we respond to suffering makes an incredible difference in how we live our lives.
