    Have you ever heard of preachers referred to as Bible thumpers? I have. I guess some preachers would take offense to that, but you know, it's better to hear a good, solid thump from the Word of God than it is to hear the hollow echo of an empty mind. If you look up the word thump, you might find ...read more

    As a church, we have certain options. We can spend our time, energy, and resources building the wall…and forfeit the church. Or we can invest our time, energy, and resources building the church and forfeit the wall. Wall or church …which will it be?

    In Robert Frost's Poem "Mending Wall," the poet says, "Something there is that doesn't love a wall." We can identify with that statement, can't we? We detest walls. Walls divide. Walls hide. Walls even kill. Remember the Berlin Wall that split families, a city, and a country? But don't we ...read more

Now this was not one of those cars that people considered to be a classic, this was an old clunker. It was a unusual shade of green. It had been restored and Mike bought it for $400.

    The church has the task to root out those who profess faith in Christ, but in reality they are faking their faith in order to destroy the church

    As we consider the sea of apostasy around us and the effectiveness of faith fakers activity in today's church, it seems as though the church has little hope in stemming the tide. But according to the book of Jude, not only can we stem the tide, we can take positive action to deal directly with ...read more
