  • People not only need God, but they need each other

    I was asked to attend a men’s prayer breakfast a few weeks ago, and the study in God’s word was from Matthew 7, “Judge not that you be not judged.”

    For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. After the Scripture was read, there were several comments from those attending, including me. After the meeting concluded and I was driving back home, I believe the Lord asked me how I was doing in keeping this word of His. I had to admit, not so good at times.

  • God’s mercy and grace act much like Priestley’s eraser

    You have probably never heard of Joseph Priestley. If you have ever made a mistake in writing, you owe him a bit of thanks because he is the man who invented the eraser.

  • The importance of family is found in the Word of God

    Many parents worry for their families, and especially for their children’s future. But the actual question would be, what is really being done for them?

    ‘When he saw them, he said, ‘Go, show yourselves to the priests.’ And as they went, they were cleansed.
