Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Mar 11, 2025

Some people live on purpose and some just respond to what the world delivers. A “life of purpose” is not something you do or something you have automatically, it is choices that each of us make. Living a life of purpose guides all our choices and shapes the direction of our life.

Are You Blaming The Messenger?

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 20, 2018

Those who are called to teach you do so knowing that we must give an account for what we pass on to you. For this reason I must cover the whole Bible including the parts that are hard to understand and that are ominous and disturbing. I have no choice.
