Wise Building

Wise Building

Imagine you were to build a house. Hopefully, you would first think it out. Then you would set a foundation and erect the building. When you were done you would have an empty building with rooms or chambers inside. Next, you would fill those rooms. “Through wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established; by knowledge the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches.” (Proverb 24:3-4) Our foundation as Christians is the Lord Jesus Christ. It is VERY

Ministering God to Others

His name was not Dan, but for the sake of confidentiality it will be for this article. Dan was barely 55 years old and he had been sick for the previous 5 years. Just before I met him he had come to the realization that he would die soon, the consequence for living a hard drinking, heavy smoking, “everything to excess” life. Dan held the dubious distinction of having had the most drunken single vehicle car wrecks on a local stretch of highway…without dying. First responders w

A beggar’s mat is a symbol; it is his mark that identifies him as a paralytic. Truly, who else in the marketpl

“Then the churches throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria had peace and were edified. And walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, they were multiplied.” (Acts 9:31) The churches, referring to the ONE body in each town (because they didn't have over 150 separate and competing Christian groups like we do in our little sparsely populated county) had peace. In other words, THE Church in Judea, Galilee and Samaria was not splintered by people lik
