[Read and pray] On August 28, 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. delivered a speech which has been called the top American speech of the 20th century. In it he called for an end to racism in the United States. ‘With a single phrase, Martin Luther King Jr. joined Jefferson and Lincoln in the ranks of men who’ve shaped modern America.’ What was that phras

Adventures in Faith – Abraham 13. How to Make Peace with Your Enemies

Genesis 21: 22 - 34 Slain Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin signed an historic peace treaty with the PLO in 1993.

Matthew 6:25-34 New International Version (NIV) Do Not Worry 25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear.

Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life[a]? 28

Genesis 21: 1 - 21 Have you ever wanted something so badly and waited a long time for it to happen, only to discover that when it did, things didn’t work out the way you thought?

Adventures in Faith – Abraham 11. A Saint Who Acted Like a Pagan

You will find stories of murder, theft, embezzlement, drunkenness, adultery, rage, moral perversion, rape, revenge, mass murder, corrupt officials, bribery, religious charlatans, to name only a few examples. Total depravity teaches us that sin has affected every part of the personality—body, mind, spirit, emotions, will, conscience, intellect and soul. All

Up With Worship!

"Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the LORD, our Maker!" Psalm 95: 6 "Worship is the submission of all our nature to God.
