    God must become more than a hobby or a secondary thing in our life; He must become A Necessary God.

    There are times in our relationship with GOD that it seems that He conceals Himself from us. What, if anything, is GOD doing when He plays "Hide & Seek" ?

    Suffering is never easy, but understanding what God is up to helps us cooperate with Him in the process of using our pain for good results.

    One of the biggest speed bumps to understanding God can be our encounters with pain and suffering. The hurts we experience may stem from abandonment or abuse, sorrow and loss, fears and failures, setbacks and confrontations, chronic illness and pain - the list is long. We all hurt for a variety ...read more

    We comes to points of deep darkness in our lives, but if we can hold fast to faith, we can keep hope.

    Let me begin by acknowledging that this is a difficult passage to hear, as is much of the book of Job. We have a tendency in our modern world to like things to be nice and clean; neat and easy to understand; joyful and upbeat. Job is really none of those things. We tend to try and make Job ...read more
