First Love
The most important thing we can remember in life is to love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength (Matthew 22:37-40). If we ever stop loving Jesus- it’s not because we have less love to give, but it is because we are giving our love to something else. May we all keep…
Read MoreTruthful & Kind
Do you think a person can be both truthful and kind? Both are godly attributes and are commanded by God. However, often times we as Christians are told they cannot exist together. A few examples: Can I as a Christian ever say these biblically true phrases and still be considered kind by non-Christians?…
Read MoreFaithful Servants
After the word disciple, the most popular name used to describe Christians in the Bible is, “servant.” Sadly, today most Christians act as customers rather than servants.

Read MoreThe Power of Prayer
The privilege and the power of prayer cannot be over stated or mentioned too much.

The Full Armor of God
Jesus promised His disciples two things in this world- ONE, we will have troubles and TWO, He has overcome them all! John 16:33, “…In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” May God use the inspired teachings of Paul to help insure our victory over every battle we face,…
Read MoreWhy I Believe the U.S. is the Best Nation in the World
Please note that I am not overlooking our present problems (such as abortion, violence, corruption, etc) nor the problems of the past (slavery, treatment of Native Americans, Jim Crow, etc) but I am sharing why even despite these things, as far as current countries go- the U.S. is still the best. 1. OUR FREEDOMS:…
