    Hesitation often proves disastrous, but Abraham shows us how to "take now" in responding with obedience to God.

    How many times a day do you receive the response, “Just a minute”? Perhaps you’ve asked your children to wash up and come to the dinner table or asked your spouse to lend you a hand or asked your mom or dad to read you a book or help with your homework. Many times we receive “Just a minute,” ...read more

    We come to expect an unmoveable object to always be there. Landmarks we call them; things that never move. God is unmoveable, and unchangeable, and we should pattern our lives after his example and stand, therefore. Like the hymn writer George Duffield Jr

    Unbelievable pain, incredible hurt. Why God? Why? Answers don’t come easily; sometimes they never come. But God wants us to know HIM and our pain drives us to him.

    TAKE IT BACK! One of my all-time favorite movies is Raiders of the Lost Ark, the first film in the Indiana Jones trilogy. I think it’s Steven Spielberg’s greatest work. In the film Hitler’s Nazis have stolen the newly recovered Ark of the Covenant and placed it aboard a German submarine. The Ark ...read more

You see, the baker was suspicious of the farmer, suspecting that he wasn’t getting his money’s worth when he paid for a pound of butter. He weighed the farmer’s butter ...read more
