Too Many Chorus Repeats
Wrong. You have the wrong attitude. It’s not about you. It’s about God and your worship of Him. And clearly He deserves all our praises. The angels never get tired or bored of worshiping or praising God, never sick of the words, never! We sing hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah and we don’t like it and some people even stopContinue reading “Too Many Chorus Repeats”
Good Friday – The Death of Jesus
Part 5: The Death of Jesus Two aspects of Jesus’ death have been the source of great controversy, namely, the nature of the wound in his side and the cause of his death after only several hours on the cross.

Without Faith, Nothing Fun Happens

Hebrews 11 is often called the “Faith Hall of Fame.” Theses are stories of remarkable men and women whose stories stand out to encourage and challenge our faith.

I pulled out 33 to try and passed on the box to my daughter Nicole, who is thrilled to treasure them too. One recipe stoodContinue reading “Scripture Cake”
