    Who We Choose as Friends Determines the Direction and Quality of Our Lives

    My wife and I listened to this presentation by Andy Stanley on "Your Move" this a.m. the topic is just a fraction of what he covered but I think it covers it in a general sense. It is a VERY VALUABLE resource for ANY Christian, but I thought especially for those who have just entered the family...

    How Job Must've "Hated" His Children

    If a child runs out into the street in a mad rush after a ball w/o looking for cars and trucks and a their parent sees it will they not immediately make an indelible impression, in love for that child, upon them to correct such behavior which could have ended up with their child laying crushed...

    Error? Absent from the body, immediately present with the Lord.

    I just referred to that verse, "We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord." 2 Cor 5:8 NIV, today. Wow! I never saw that before. This verse does NOT say that which the topic alludes to but I have had that verse used for a half century of my...

    Praise the Lord for His Merciful, Kind, and Gracious ways, all founded in His immeasurable and infinite LOVE!!!! In that love He did all that He could to reconciliate us unto His Glorious presence after we turned away and said we know a better way; in effect, spit God in the face. We were/are...

    Over 1/3 of US States Were in Legal Support of and with Texas In SCOTUS Lawsuit

    It wasn't news till it was over. It WAS news for the biased main-stream media and its cohorts after it was sent back. After Michigan's forensic studies of its election process it has locked up its findings, hmmm? Our great and honorable President Trump's team hasn't counted on the Texas suit...

    When Standard Anchor is Useless

    For a Christian, obsessions and troubles can remove your focus and hold upon the Anchor of life, our Savior and Lord of us and the universe. Maybe similar to the disciples' anxious and terrified focus upon the raging storm while Jesus slept peaceably in the boat. No matter what grabs our focus...

    Did Adam Drop the Ball?

    I was recently reading Genesis 2 and 3 and among another point I noticed something I had overlooked in the past and probably for the same reason I had overlooked the other thing I started another thread about; in all of my learned teachings and sermons upon God's Word the theme of the Creation...

    Before Adam and Eve Disobeyed God They Were Welcome to Eternal Life and Had It Freely Available

    I was just reading the part of Genesis (ch 2&3) about Adam and Eve and realized or maybe was reminded that they had Eternal Life freely available to them and God welcomed them to eat/partake of it. I thought that I'd share this just in case there is another who hadn't realized this. The story...

    I shared this story on FB after Fox conducted her first "coming out" interview about a month ago. FB squelched it.

    Planning On Dying at Home in Case of Cancer or Such?

    I have just experienced such for the first time from a distance although presently there. If one has another option, even if just in another distant relative's or friend's home, I think that would be much more of a gracious exit for your close relatives like spouse and children. After you have...

    SOCIALISM FOR-BIDEN

    The History of Socialism's Failures is paramount in spite of its deceptive appeal. I think that it finds its remarkable appeal to those in our country today due to an exponential increase of a sense of ENTITLEMENT. Even the Democrats elected a renowned President who is widely known for this...

    Evangelical Covenant Church Questions

    We have been visiting a local church of the above denomination. In selecting a church family of which to belong it is important to me to find out what kind of doctrine/practices I am supporting and promulgating, even as a tithing visitor. The church itself has no local "core" values or doctrine...

He repeatedly tried to find out what he was supposed to have done so he could...
