They’re my babies! You can’t have them!”, and then run out of there as fast as I could! I know that may […]

Love – Who Loves Most and Why by Cathy Bryant

If love were just a feeling the whole concept would be so much easier for us to manufacture. But true love isn’t just mushy […]

Gems from Pastor Jim by Jim Hughes

Ps. 51:6 But you desire honesty from the heart, so you can teach me to be wise in my inmost being. Are you an honest person? You cannot be trusted beyond your level of honesty. An honest person tells the truth regardless whether or not it is convenient or self-serving. An honest person […]

Gems from Pastor Jim by Jim Hughes

Ps. 48:9 O God, we meditate on your unfailing love as we worship in your Temple. What is the temple? It is God’s dwelling place. The temple of God has a three-fold meaning. It can be a building we worship in, it can be us, or it can be our Lord himself. It […]

The Top Page

by:  Staci Stallings I wrote this article a few years ago when we were just beginning to see the light at the end of the long, dark tunnel of my son’s dyslexia. To this day, it brings me to tears to think of these precious moments with him as his world began to […]

Ask the Animals by B. J. Robinson

Job: 12:7-9 But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds of the air, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish of the sea inform you. Which of all these does not know that the hand of the Lord […]
