    As I attempted, throughout the week, to begin practicing the Spiritual Discipline of Silence, I found it very difficult; I failed more than I succeeded.

    "It is well", must have been the theme phrase of this Shunamite woman's life. She knew that there are things in life that we cannot control and yet she demonstrated her faith in God by keeping the standard in the face of extreme trials, knowing that He was in complete control.

Our text takes place around 850 BC - Elisha was God’s prophet to the Northern kingdom. He was the son of a farmer, Shaphat, and also understudy of Elijah. At Elijah’s ascension ...read more

What does this story have to do with evangelism? The answer is simple. Someone needed to hear the Word from God, and so God sent ...read more
