    We Christians try so hard to live a good and pure life for God, don’t we? But we are all-too-often beleaguered down with the burden of sin. It seems that the harder we try, the worse we get. And so, we must ask the question, “Why do we have sin in our lives?” PROVERBS 8:13 might give us a ...read more

    Abraham and Lot. Two believers. One trusted God, and the other trusted in his own achievement, power and wisdom. The question for us as we examine their lives and story is simply this. Who do you trust?

While we are tempted to think that Lot was not a true believer, 2 Peter 2:7–8 tells us that he was indeed a believer, "And if he rescued righteous Lot, greatly ...read more
