“The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance” (2 Peter 3:9.) “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto… Continue reading God’s Call On Our Lives

Hid In Christ
I recently read, “If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God” (Colossians 3:1-3.) I looked up… Continue reading Hid In Christ
The World Our Kids Are Growing Up In
Paul writes to the churches of the New Testament and often has to address sin. Usually, it’s topics like witchcraft, fornication, and pride. Two sins that most parents still worry about today. I’m a millennial. And most of the older generation says, “I can’t imagine raising kids in this world.” Or “I can’t believe how… Continue reading The World Our Kids Are Growing Up In
Your Ideal Home

It’s Not Just Sitting in Church
Recently, I talked to a friend who is going through a hard time. They aren’t in church; they have a rocky past, which makes them question their salvation, and they aren’t sure what to do about their situation.

The Day My World Changed
Sunday, August 4, 2024 at 8:21 a.m., I received the worst news of my life. My worst fear had become reality. My Daddy had passed away. He was a truck driver, and he was at work. I am sharing this partially as a personal update, partially because it helps me to talk about him, partially… Continue reading The Day My World Changed
Living Abundantly Through Godly Speech
The Bible has much to say about your words. Once the words leave your mouth or you hit send on a text, they can’t be taken back. Your speech can encourage others or tear them down. You can praise God and His doings or deny Him and take the praise for yourself. Proverbs 15:1 says,… Continue reading Living Abundantly Through Godly Speech
