Redeemed or Condemned
‘There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” – Romans 8:1 When I evangelize to people, I often ask them where they go when they die, heaven or hell.

The Agony of Lost Opportunity
Who among us can make a bold statement such as, “I have no regrets in life?” As Christians, we know that we will never regret not sinning but at the same time, we continue to sin in this fallen world.

Remembering Our Hope
Scripture is filled with many instances of deliberate and permanent reminders of the Lord’s mercy, kindness, compassion, love, and faithfulness.

The first chapter of Genesis is packed with a myriad of doctrines and has been the subject of study and sermons for thousands of years.

Strength in the Unknown
A Wife Reflects on God’s Faithfulness November was one of the most challenging months I had ever experienced.

The Great Commission and the Christian
Missions is not the ultimate goal of the church. Worship is. Missions exists because worship doesn’t. John Piper The Great Commission is a simple command: advance the kingdom of God to all peoples that He may be worshiped as He rightly deserves.

Your Child’s Love Is Precious
There is great difficulty in getting someone to understand that their own standards are unattainable for their co-workers. The optimistic side to that is that the individual is full of passion, is detail-oriented, and has high standards for their area of charge. However the negative can be a creation of an environment where they areContinue reading “Your Child’s Love Is Precious”
