What’s So Good About Good Friday Series

Contributed by Lalachan Abraham on Apr 17, 2025

Good Friday, the Friday before Easter, is the Christian day to commemorate the crucifixion of Jesus and His death at Calvary. Jesús willingly suffered and died by crucifixion as the ...read more

Good Eyesight Spiritually

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Oct 10, 2025

For example: • God placed our eyes lower than our forehead so our eyes can be protected by our forehead. • God gave us eyebrows for the purpose to help keep moisture, such as sweat and rain, out of ...read more
