Gems From Pastor Jim by Jim Hughes
Ps. 118:8 It is better to trust the LORD than to put confidence in people. In case you haven’t noticed it yet, people will disappoint you. People will not always treat you fairly or nice. People will not always have your best interests in mind. People will not always be honest with you. […]

Giving to Get; Getting to Give
By: Staci Stallings Giving. It’s such a loaded word—especially in the church. In fact, I saw a cartoon the other day that had a guy passing the plate wearing a “We Give Online” T-shirt in case anyone thought he was shirking his tithe. Although there are many verses in the Bible about giving, […]

Liberty and Freedom by Rebekah Beene
Send to Kindle“Three millions of people, armed in the holy cause of liberty, and in such a country as that which we possess, are invincible by any force which our enemy can send against us. Beside, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of […]

Christian Criticism by Sherry Chamblee
Nobody likes to be criticized, right? Even if it’s done supposedly to help you, we don’t really like to be confronted with something that another person doesn’t think is perfect about us.
