Love Takes Work

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Sep 4, 2023

Love is something we have to work at. It doesn't just instantly happen. Love at first sight can often be cured with a second look! We are not meant to FALL in love with anyone. We are meant to GROW in love. Growing in love is like planting a garden, it takes a lot of hard work.

The Bible is a book of signs and wonders. And when God did miracles through his son Jesus Christ here on earth, what it did was it made cynical people into saints. The doubters, who saw Lazarus come out of a grave, no longer doubted that Jesus Christ had the power over death. They just saw it and ...read more

Understanding The Bible's Take On Money issues. Series

Contributed by Shaila Touchton on Feb 11, 2024

I want to talk to you about the power of money and the importance of breaking free from its control. Money is a tool, a medium of exchange, but when it becomes our primary focus, we lose sight of what truly matters.

Many individuals engage in giving, spending, and seeking strange money, which typically represents a life of hardship, ...read more
