Breaking Generational Curses!
I’ve recently heard, “He didn’t have a chance. They were all heavy drinkers... both on his mom’s side and dad’s side.” I know tons of people who, time after time, end up living together without being in a marriage relationship-heck, that used to be me. I was used to...

God's Anger at Sin…
"But God shows his anger from heaven against all sinful, wicked people who suppress the truth by their wickedness. They know the truth about God because he has made it obvious to them. For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through...
The Power of the Resurrection

Coming to the end of ourselves…
Here's a thought we can really meditate on... When we are at the place in our lives where we come to the end of ourselves, it is then we are able to take a step back and see how sufficient and faithful God is! Because we turn from our circumstances to God, we realize...
Perseverance taught by Taz…
How incredible... part of my prayer this morning was asking God to open up my understanding to the things unseen. He just did! How? Through my cat, Taz! God teaches us many spiritual lessons through everyday physical things. It’s our job to expect God to reveal...

Modern-Day Josephs…
My heart has heard you say, “Come and talk with me.” And my heart responds, “Lord, I am coming.” Psalm 27: 8 There is so much uncertainty in the world. All of us need to be encouraged some way or another. The only remedy for doubt, fear, and insecurity is God’s Word....
