Knowledge of God
Just as politicians today use lies and deceptive language to castigate their opponents, Satan used lies and misrepresented God to God’s newly created people. Satan continues to do so today. How does God get His message to those of us on earth? Scripture tells us that God is worthy of our worship because He is our creator and our redeemer and that’s what He uses to communicate His love to us. In spite of sin, nature continues to shout that…
Low Hanging Fruit
The “butterfly effect” is the theory that small causes can have large effects. A butterfly flaps its wings, and the result of just the slightest shift in the air, can cause a tornado several countries over. Based on the mathematical chaos theory, those two incidents seem quite extreme to be related. But like the ripple effect, where the smallest ripple can reach the far edges of the lake, we cannot help but affect the world and others in it simply…

When everything in us screams “hide or be hurt!” yet our silence makes our bones waste away all day long (Psalm 32:3) we have a choice to make. We can try to disguise our failures and weaknesses through blame and shame, or we can be transparent and real, walking humbly with our God. (Micah 6:8) What will it take for our trembling hearts…

Now God’s people came with their tributes of thanksgiving to God, who had so richly blessed them. There was much joy and rejoicing being at one with God and with each other. The people encouraged one another and sang together in praising God. Join Rozella as she…
Show a Little Bit of Jesus Each Day
“Home Missions”…what does that mean? “Our work for Christ is to begin with the family, in the home…There is no missionary field more important.” (Testimonies Vol.6 p429). It is our biblical responsibility to serve our family adequately, as well as reaching other’s hearts for Christ. If we serve outside our home to the point that our family is starved for our presence, are we truly doing God’s work and His will? Join Brenda as she explores “Home Missions” from personal…

The Father is waiting, longing for that moment when we turn…
