Sermons on The Fire Go Out:

The Lord Is Refining Fire Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 22, 2007

Like Job they complain about howe God is treating them, but they get more than they bargained for. Their behaviour doesn’t stand up before the gaze of God’s righteousness.

I love courtroom dramas especially the ones written by John Grisham: The Pelican Brief, The Rainmaker, Runaway Jury. Then there are the TV shows like Perry Mason, JAG, Judging Amy, Law and Order and so forth. It’s great to see these great legal minds in a battle of wits trying to prove their case. ...read more

Is There Fire In Your Bones?

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 22, 2025
