    Valentine's Day: The relationship between Christ and the church is often expressed in terms of a wedding, from the proposal to the ceremony. While we wait for the bridegroom, we must set our heart on fulfilling His passions.

    At Valentine’s Day we often think about love, romantic love that is; and one of the most beautiful images that come to mind is a wedding ceremony. Next to that might be the engagement, where a man gets down on one knee for the proposal, while the woman listens to his expression of undying love and ...read more

    Who wants God to love them and act towards them halfheartedly, as an after thought. No we want Gods full attention and commitment to our well being. Well God wants doesn't want to be an after thought in our lives either.

    David made a statement in the word of God. He said my heart is fixed. Psalms 57:7 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise. There are all kinds of heart conditions. There’s a broken heart. There’s a wounded heart. Then there are physical heart conditions that limit ...read more

    Jesus declared in Luke 12:49, “I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!” We think of the meek and mild Bethlehem Babe coming to bring peace on earth, good-will to men.
