And Christians are increasingly becoming targets around the globe. Today we have to ask, as we become less secure, are we more sure of [...]
Book Review: Crazy Love
Many of you have asked us about Francis Chan, and we know he sure seems like a nice person. When one examines the fruits or tests the spirit, it should never be based on a person’s good deeds (even our best deeds are rags to God), or their personality or humbleness. It all comes down [...]
A breach of apostasy in post-modern churches
The time clock is ticking, and we are looking at end-times prophecy being fulfilled before our eyes. If you aren’t “into” prophecy matters in your faith, you are not alone.

Extending the Gospel to those who won’t come to church
Inviting people to attend your church is a great thing. But there are some people who will not come to your church for whatever reason. How do we share the hope that we have in Christ with people right where they’re at? It’s something that many of our listeners do in the workplace or wherever [...]
The confidence of God’s Word
Have we lost our love for the Word of God? A thoughtful article by Ligonier Ministries: The Christian Club Many American churches are in a mess.

They often have a lot of [...]
Wealth, pride and betting on the wrong horse

(Matthew 19:16-26) If you want to understand the mindset of the wealthy, you need to go where they are with what they need. What they think they need is blessings that look like success. Today we are talking [...]
