    Life is filled with troubles, and often it seems the best thing to do is just to ignore them. But, if we realized how serious and close to home some of our troubles really are, we would take action.

    Turning to God for help: On March 9th of 1994, a German tourist checked into a hotel near Miami International Airport. That night in his room he noticed a foul odor. But, travelers must put up with all sorts of discomforts, he thought, so he slept in the bed that night without a complaint to the ...read more

    The Turning Point

All of us stand before God guilty as charged. And there is absolutely nothing that any of us can do about ...read more

    A brief look at Moses' experience at the burning bush and how/where we need to turn.
