A half-empty view of life many times is a negative or unhappy life. Life just exists to grumble orContinue reading “Are you Content?”

Jesus began His week by riding into town on the back of a donkey while crowds of people cheered Him on as the Messiah. Palm branches lined theContinue reading “Holy Week”
In Everything Go To God
When you face today, remind yourself about this one thing: Whatever you are going through, you can present it to God! God is always available to you. He is never to busy for you.

Climb that Mountain
Psalm 24:3-4: 3 Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord? Who may stand in his holy place? 4 The one who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not trust in an idol or swear by a false god. The mountain of God, at first glance, seems unclimbable. I read that the only one that can stand orContinue reading “Climb that Mountain”

Churches less evangelistic today than ever before
This post comes from Thom Rainer: By almost any metric, the churches in our nation are much less evangelistic today than they were in the recent past. In my own denomination, we are reaching non-Christians only half as effectively as we were 50 years ago (we measure membership to annual baptisms). The trend is disturbing.Continue reading “Churches less evangelistic today than ever before”
