God’s fullness in you will naturally overflow into the lives of others. However, sometimes God calls […]

Ladies, you may already be pursuing God’s purpose in Titus 2:3-5, which we discussed in our last post. But as a follow-up, you might also want to ask yourself, “Who, not what, is my Purpose?” Am I faithfully serving those in my path who are part of my purpose—my family, my church, my co-workers and […]

I praised God when our pastor encouraged those who had accepted Christ as savior this past year to come forward and light a candle during the Christmas service. I was thrilled to see children and adults of all ages had made that significant life-changing decision this year. For years after I became a Christian, I […]

As fleshly humans, our natural tendency is to take care of our own needs first. We like to make sure there is plenty of time for the things we want to do. Then if we have any time or energy left over, we might be willing to use it to serve someone else. But in […]

Who is the most important man who ever lived? Without a doubt it’s Jesus Christ! As such, Jesus could also have been the most isolated, insulated, protected person who ever lived.
