Do You Really Prepare Yourself For Worship?

Many times we go to church expecting to be entertained instead of going with an expectation of God doing something in our life like convicting us of sin or reminding us of things that need to change. The motto of the world today is “What is in it for me?” or “What can you do [...]

The Bridge Of Intervention

Are You A Part Of The True Body Of Christ?

A Boy Named Grumble Tone

It is much easier to grumble than to take a little extra effort to find something good to say. We would all be much better off if we took some time to think about things before we act or speak; better yet to say a prayer instead of finding fault. God places people in our [...]

How Would You Act If Jesus Were Standing Beside You?

This is from the writings of  S. B. Shaw in 1893. We as Christians many times don’t think about the Holy Spirit living inside us and that He sees everything we do. Because he is invisible, we don’t think as much about His Presence as if a real fleshly person were standing beside us. Please [...]
