The New Morality

Today, our society is at war. The battlefront is not in Iraq—it is right here in North America. Under attack is our ability to distinguish between right and wrong.

“Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown. So the people of Nineveh believed God, and proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them” Jonah 3:4-5.

A New Conception in Christ

For years I had dined at the table of deceit Fulfilling my own desires and lusts. Habitual sin once a daily routine As I fellowshipped with the unjust.

The Road Not Taken

Scared…big…beautiful…best describe my memory of church when I was about 5 years old. I have some good memories of the years we attended, although they come in bits and pieces. One day, I can recall being scared standing in front of this huge structure. As we were about to enter through the large, blonde, wooden […]

Repent or Perish

Life is merely a ritual, albeit a challenging one. We’re born, live out our appointed time, and die; and after a while, “…the memory of them is forgotten” (Ecclesiastes 9:5).
