Jeremiah does not seem to live on the brighter-side of life "My joy is gone, grief is upon me, my heart is sick," writes the prophet Jeremiah to ...read more

We've Must Get To Holy Ground

Contributed by Bryan Beverly on Oct 23, 2014

A New Covenant

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 24, 2018

Before Jesus can bring about the New Covenant He must ride into Jerusalem as was prophesied by Zechariah. The Temple courts have become a market of greed and gain instead of a place of spiritual discourse. What has worship become in our day and age?

We are nearly there, nearly at Jesus Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem, nearly seated at the Last Supper, nearly gathered in prayer at the Garden of Gethsemane. We are nearly at the time of Jesus ...read more
