    We had an evening dedicated to "God’s Word." We had special music, the Pledge to the Bible, and a devotional.

    On a Sunday night, we had seven different people each get up and share their favorite Bible verse, and what that verse means to their lives. Then I shared the following devotional. I pledge allegiance to the Bible, God’s Holy Word, and will make it a lamp unto my feet, a light unto my path, and ...read more

    My heart was blessed this week when I read about the young man in Pickens S.C who not only stood up for the Lord but, he did it in front of his classmates, teachers, family and his home town that is under attack by some who want to take prayer out of town

    If we are not for God then, we are against Him. Psalm 94:16 Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity? We live in a day when it seems evil and those that are against God seem to be winners. Every time you turn on the news or open the ...read more

    In our culture where the influence of the church is diminishing, why should we BE the church? The answer is found in the identity of Jesus and the promises he makes about the Kingdom he is establishing (the church).

That's more than 40,000 churches. At the turn of the 1900’s there were 27 churches to every 10,000 people. ...read more

    ”If it be possible, as much as lies in you, live peaceably with all men". With everything that’s happened September 11 and recently in England many Christians are concerned.
