• The Wonder of it All

    If there is one hinderance to the furtherance of the gospel and the growth of the Church, it is that the average Christian simply is not in awe or amazement of God. We undervalue His grace. We are underwhelmed by His glory. To us, in our common language, everything from cars to tacos can be

  • Let Us Consider

    Everything in life hinges on, builds on, and is directed by relationships. Man is a relational being. We were designed by God to have a life, truly an eternity, filled with relationships. First and foremost, we were designed to have a relationship with God. Sin of course has marred this relationship and created distance and

  • Weary Heart Remember

    When I am weary with faith so frail When Satan’s arrows against me rail When my battled heart is broken, lost unsure of what to do Then I remember Christ was weary, broken, tempted too When I am lonely and filled with dread When doubting thoughts cloud my head When my battled heart is broken,

  •             Christmas time is upon us. You are probably either a Grinch or a Cindy Lou Who right about now. We’ve barely gotten the taste of Thanksgiving turkey out of our mouth, and it is time for Christmas cookies. I know that the season is supposed to be one that is merry and bright, yet
