FREEDOM FROM FEAR, Part 6: When Circumstance Looms
Last week, in FREEDOM FROM FEAR, Part 5, we learned that though God is always there to help us in our moments of fear, intentional, unconfessed sin can separate us from the His help. Our job is to confess our sin, and then continue to place our trust in Him. But what...
LESSONS FROM EZEKIEL’S TEMPLE, PART 12: The Sacrifices, Part B: The Purification for Sacrifice
Last week, in Lessons from Ezekiel's Temple, Part 12a, we discovered that the reason there is so much emphasis on sacrifices in the descriptions of Ezekiel's temple is because sacrifice is still vitally important for us today. The types of sacrifice have changed, but...

LESSONS FROM WORLD CUP FOOTBALL, PART 1: EMIGRATION
Absorbed with World cup football? Well, I am one of those who gladly gets "infected" with Soccer fever contagion which "breaks out" once every four 4 years. Let me vouchsafe for the fact that one can never "get sick of" of the "kick" of soccer's "sorcery"! Amongst...

FAITH, Part 9: By Faith, Abraham…Part A
