  • Church is about the people, not the steeple

    Scattered throughout any community are tiny, struggling churches.
    If you blink while driving past them you’ll miss them. Or they’re eyesores — run down, weather worn.

  • God, not his people, chooses life’s many blessings

    Is God the center of your life?
    A lot of us think so because we go to church maybe once or twice a week and maybe even throw a 20 in the plate. But, truly who is the God of your life? We often read in the Old Testament of warnings against worshiping idols. In instructing the Israelites in Exodus 20:4, God said, “You shall not make for yourself any idol in the form of anything.”

  • Rejection of God unleashes satanic foes on nation

    This is one of the toughest things to write about but the tragic shooting last week echoes sadness all over the nation.
    Such a horrendous act of violence will not be forgotten. So many ask the why? Friday night on the television show 20/20 a Jewish rabbi and a Catholic priest were both asked why this took place. They said they did not know. The answer is that evil is real and Satan is alive and well.
    Sin is rampant today and the devil is on the move.
