Resource!

Sovereign Grace Ministries is having a sale this month on their books and music. I’ve found them to be an excellent resource for solid, challenging books and encouraging worship music, so I thought I’d make you aware of this sale. The prices last only as long as supplies…and most things are near to being 50% [...]

The Most Important Thing?

We’ve all heard it said that, “What we believe about God is the most important thing about us.” This statement is typically met with a nod and a smile. We’re used to hearing this most often in reference to the difference between believers and unbelievers. Unbelievers are characterized by their lack of belief in God, [...]

Truthfest!

Debbie Jane:
God has shown me this week that He is with me throughout all the changes, tough times, and overwhelming feelings. It’s hard to grasp the concept of “growing up” sometimes, and it’s scary, but God is always there- and is in complete control of my life. I just need to remember to go to [...]

Satisfied

I sat down late one night after a long day of work; I was discouraged, I was discontent, I was weary. In my heart I had been fighting a battle all day long, but I was dwelling on thoughts that only fueled that fire of discontent and discouragement. The more I thought of those things, [...]

Truthfest!

What is a Truthfest? It’s a silly term I came up with to describe a certain sort of fellowship. A Truthfest is when Christians get together and, in rapid-fire style, describe God’s recent activity in their lives.
