Can God Use Me?

Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 23, 2025

God’s work does not depend on perfect people or ideal conditions, but on ordinary men and women who listen and respond faithfully when He speaks, even in uncertain times.

There is a question that lives quietly beneath a great deal of spiritual activity. It rarely gets announced. It doesn’t usually show up in public prayer. It hides behind busyness, behind service, behind long familiarity with faith. Can God use me? Not “Does God exist?” Not “Is the Bible ...read more

Can We Trust The Gospels?

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Dec 16, 2019

Can God Have A Son?

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jun 20, 2009

Nothing is too hard for God!

My understanding is that Islamics and even some groups who use the term Christian have a problem with Jesus being the Son of God. After all, one means one how can God have a Son?
