    based on 35 ratings
     | 6,579 views

The first time that the apostles stood and faced arrest, they didn’t… That is, they didn’t stand, they turned and ran. And they didn’t face their opponents, they scattered ...read more

    An exploration of contemplating the glory and goodness of God in worship

    I love this passage of Revelation -- I can’t read it without laughing outloud at one of the best memories of my ministry. Let us now hear the word of God from Revelation 16, beginning with verse 1. (Read Revelation 16:1-21) I suppose I should explain why I find this so uplifting. It all started ...read more

Legitimate fear of danger, for example, results in restraint: whether driving, playing football, or welding, caution is a virtue. 3. There are fears ...read more
