Knowing God

Contributed by Hiram Withers on May 20, 2019

What makes sin serious is not that we sin, it is that we sin against God. To truly know God is to understand the severity of our sin.

I spent a lot of years angry at God. I was so angry that there came a point that I decided he was a fable, he did not exist, he was a crutch for the weak who could not handle the troubles of life. I took every opportunity to prove to others they were living a lie. That was until the faithful ...read more

The Wonders Of His Love Series

Contributed by Dorothy Lam on Jan 11, 2023

How did Jesus coming as a baby mean that there would be peace on earth and goodwill for us? My journey through Advent has brought me back to the manger where God shows up in the flesh, where the God-Man is all potential, just lying there. It's an offer. It's an invitation.

Life revolves around what the baby needs, not her own needs. New fathers find a place in their hearts that was not there before. A sense of pride ...read more
