The Madness Part 1 Series

Contributed by Brent Bailey on Jul 26, 2014

It's crazy to be so excited about everything in life that we will brag, talk about, and tell everyone about our kids, our jobs, our problems, our victories, but we aren't so quick to share Jesus.

Youth With Christ In Action

Contributed by Minister Dachi on Oct 20, 2022

Solomon, who wasted much of his life in folly, perhaps thought better of the matter in his declining days. He contended: “Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come and the years draw near when you will say, I have no pleasure in them” (Eccl. 12:1).

WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT YOUTH LIFE? ECCLESIASTES 11:9-10 Young People, enjoy your youth. Be happy while you are still young. Do what you want to do, and follow your heart’s desire.

Of Snakes And Crosses

Contributed by Eloy Gonzalez on Apr 2, 2003

Lent 4: The Lord has prescribed the method whereby we must be saved. It might seem odd - maybe crazy - like gazing at a snake on a pole... or a Savior on a Cross.

Folks were fussing and griping. They were angry and upset and - as is almost always the case under these circumstances - they began to criticize. Soon the words became heated. The harshness of the comments spoken was only thinly veiled. The angry words spoken were like painful, barbed darts – ...read more
