Pastor Charles Stanley (Celebrating this Christmas in Heaven) wrote in his ongoing publication Timeless Teachings of Dr. Charles Stanley that the most important question every person must answer is: Who is Jesus? "When He was with His disciples, He asked them this question: 'Who do people say that the Son of Man is' (Matthew 16:13). They gave Him several opinions they'd heard, [...]

Happy Thanksgiving my friends. I trust this week you will be filled with sincere hearts of gratitude, and that you can experience a time of rest and peace with family and friends. One of the signs of the near return of Christ is a sharp increase in Apostasy. Apostasy is a term used to refer to those who have fallen [...]

This is a true statement from the Word: If you desire to mature in your faith all you need do is ask! (Matthew 21:22) A familiar passage in Romans 4:18 - 21 reads: "In hope against hope he believed (the context is referencing Abraham) that he might become the father of many nations according to that which had been spoken, [...]

We are living in tumultuous times! The ongoing conflict in Israel has once again affirmed that God's Chosen People, whether living in the Promised Land or in enclaves around the world, are despised and rejected simply because they are His. The Denison Forum comments from an article dated 10-11-23: "From Egypt's genocide in the time of Moses to the [...]

Like the Minutemen of old we must be ready at any moment to provide an answer for the hope that is within us. Last week we examined verses from the Old Testament (Nehemiah 4:17) and the New Testament (2 Timothy 2:4)  to affirm that as Ambassadors of God our JOB is to be Influencers for the Kingdom, and as such, whenever [...]

Last week we were chatting a bit about the Minutemen from the American Revolution. Citizen soldiers always prepared to defend the boundaries of their habitation, like the people of Israel under Nehemiah (Nehemiah 4:17), and the Church as described in 2 Timothy 2:4. One of the challenges we face today as the Church is finding ways to tactfully share our Christian Convictions [...]

I have an academic background in history, having taught in that field for years. My passion was American Studies in general, and the early years of our founding as a nation in particular. Many of you will remember learning about the so-called Minutemen during our revolution. They were ordinary citizens who banded together to form an effective army. [...]

In Proverbs 16:17 - 19 we read: The highway of the upright is to depart from evil; He who watches his way preserves his life. Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before stumbling. It is better to be humble in spirit with the lowly than to divide the spoil with the proud. Translation, PRIDE is DANGEROUS. It is something [...]

Scripture is very definite about EVERYTHING! Our God is a Word Smith, an excellent communicator who desires for us to fully understand His will and ways. With that in mind, I have been impressed of late with the need to consider how often the Scriptures admonish us to Take a Stand. Of course there are [...]

At His ascension from the Mount of Olives, Jesus commanded His disciples to go into all the world and make disciples. In Matthew 28:19 & 20 we learn about this mandate and understand it to be more than a simple admonishment to share the Good News of His Resurrection. As His disciples, we are to be about [...]
