    Part one of this series focuses on how our words let others know what is within our hearts because we speak what we believe within.

    Contributed by Robert Malcolm on Jan 8, 2025
     | 462 views

    We are free when our lives are uncommitted, but not to be what we were intended to be. Real freedom is not freedom "from," but freedom "for."

    ~ Intro: … I have on my table a violin string... it is free. I twist one end of it and it responds. It is free. But it is not free to do what a violin string is supposed to do--produce music. So I take it, fix it in my violin and tighten it until it is taut. Only then is it free to be a violin ...read more

    Catastrophes happen. As Christians, we need to be careful when assessing the cause of tragedy. It is natural to ask, “Who or what is to blame when tragedy or disaster strikes?” Let us examine this issue.

    Whose Fault Is It? Luke 13:1-5; John 9:1-3 When catastrophes or tragedies strike quite often we become like the disciples in John 9 when they met a man blind from birth. Their immediate reaction was that it was the judgment of God upon either this man or his parents. When the devastating ...read more

    Give us this day our daily bread. This is praying not for spiritual but for physical needs, but could well be as some believe, that that prayer is just all spiritual. But could very well be also physical.
