David speaks of God’s provision in the trying times and in the presence of those who oppose him as marks of God’s goodness as shepherd.

Now Is The Time Series

Contributed by Lonnie Erwin on Jan 2, 2021

“Now is the Time” to come back to what is important to all who love God. God’s sent Jesus, His Son that we would no longer be separated from Him by the sin in our lives. What is keeping you from worshiping God?

One of my favorite songs is entitled “Heart of Worship.” The Lyrics of the song imply that we have gotten away from worshiping God and let other things replace our worship with things that are less important. Many of God’s people have let the pandemic dampen their desire to Worship God. With the ...read more

God’s feast is ready; the call is now—accept His grace, wear His robe, and take your seat at the table.

I grew up one of seven children. In a house that full, noise was normal—laughing, teasing, fussing, the thud of feet running in and out the back door. But no matter how wild the day got, there was one sound that could stop everything in an instant. It wasn’t thunder. It wasn’t Dad’s whistle. It ...read more

490 Times?

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 8, 2025

Forgiveness isn’t counted but lived—when we release others, God releases us, mercy triumphs, and faith regains its power to move mountains.

Mercy triumphs over judgment — that’s what the Word of God says. And if we’re honest, every one of us here needs mercy. We’ve needed it before, we’ll need it again before the day’s over. If it weren’t for the mercy and compassion of God, where would we be? Utterly consumed. Gone. Done for. But His ...read more

Time On Loan Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 24, 2025

Christians often compartmentalize their use of time into "MY" time and "GOD'S" time. But is that the best way to think of the time we've been given in our lives?

It used to be – if you wanted to know what time it was you might look up at the sun and say “Well, it looks like it’s about 12:30” and everybody’d be happy with that. But not anymore: In Washington D.C. - on the grounds of the U.S. Naval Observatory - there’s a concrete building that houses ...read more
