Who Do You Think You Are?
When Jesus spoke to the people, He boldly declared, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life.” (John 8:12). Jesus was defining Himself when He said those words. Throughout the Bible, Jesus consistently described who He was: the door, the bread…
May the 4th Be With You
Happy 4th Sunday of Advent and Happy Christmas Eve! We can join many others who will attend church today to breathe in what all this decorating, baking, shopping, partying, and having family and friend get togethers has been all about.

It’s been a long, tiring day. You’re almost to the end of it and you just want to chill – turn on the television to escape to another world. Aw! It feels so good to get off your feet when — just like that — the phone rings. The caller ID tells you that it’s…
What Do You Have as Reminders?
So I have several different and beloved crosses that my husband gave me. I wear them often – especially the one that was his. They are my “bumper stickers”. I want to be known as a Christian. Seeing the cross, just might cause someone to ask me to pray with them about something. Those crosses…

Another friend is going through all the heart-wrenching processes…
