Comic books and cartoons entertain our children and dazzle their minds, but are we teaching our children the marvels of the Almighty God that are found in Scripture? Everything in the comic books, cartoons and video games is “make believe,” but everything in the Bible is real! It really happened! Every single detail occurred exactly as the Bible says it did! Do…

There is not a single person on earth who is perfect or doing everything right. However, there is a mindset (which is prevalent) that says, “No one else has a right to correct me.” None of us enjoy receiving correction (whether young or old), so most of us would never seek it and, when someone does offer us “friendly correction,” most of…
So, how thankful are you? How often do you say, “Thank you”? The New Testament gives great emphasisto the need for Christians to be thankful. And, shouldn’t we? “Let the peace of God rule in your hearts…and be thankful” (Col. 3:15). “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God” (1 Thess. 5:18). “Giving thanks always for all things” (Eph. 5:20).…

It is being guarded, kept and preserved in heaven for God’s heirs. How certain…
Have you ever wondered why God gives us all the little details in some Bible stories? Why do we know that it was “a fresh jawbone of a donkey” that Samson used to kill 1,000 men? Why are we told that David used a sling and a smooth stone from the brook to bring down Goliath? Why does God tell us that…
Sometimes, in paintings of centuries past, artists would depict the apostles (and especially Jesus) as having a glowing circle around their head. Have you seen those pieces of art? If the apostles actually walked around with glowing circles about their heads, do you think they would have been easy to recognize and identify as a follower of Christ? But, you well know…
There are those tough choices that we face in life that are better made WITH God than WITHOUT God (i.e., praying for wisdom and guidance through the decision process). Then, there is a different type of choice that we face in life which involves the temptation to sin against God. This is not a matter of choosing between Option A and Option…
