Some of you may remember the For Dummies series of books that became popular 20-30 years ago and are still ...read more

Your life is a frail flower, not an oak tree. Be fragrant like a blue bonnet, not a stink weed or an irritant like ragweed.

Jas 1:10  But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.  11  For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the ...read more

Following Jesus, Even Through Trials And Tests Series

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Oct 28, 2022

James, the half-brother of the Lord Jesus, knew about trials and tests. His words to believers of his day are just as true for us of these days, too. In a sentence, he'd say "Endure the test and receive a reward".

Certainly, as He promised, He’s there with us, but trials and tests ...read more
