    Single Is Safer

    Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on May 15, 2023
     | 493 views

    Ladies, if your Boaz never shows up it is OK to be single. Guys, if your Ruth never shows up it is OK.

    This is primarily for the ladies, but much also applies to the men. Many young people are worried about the dating scene and marriage seems unattainable as they age. Some have said that if you are not married by forty, it is unlikely you will and for the ladies it means they will not have ...read more

    Thronging Or Touching

    There is a difference in thronging around Jesus and really touching Jesus. There is a difference between just showing up for church and showing up with the intention of touching Jesus.

    In the beginning of the Bible, in the book of Genesis it tells us of a close and personal and intimate relationship that Adam and Eve shared with God. God would make Himself known to them in the cool of the day or the evening time. What an awesome time of fellowship that must have been when ...read more

    Many times when we think of God using us and us using spiritual gifts we think of some pretty impressive stuff - miracles, prophecy, healings and the like. But Paul gives us some great instruction about the color of the ways God uses us.

    We’ve come to this point in our study through Romans by seeing that since God has had so much mercy on us that it is only reasonable for us to make ourselves available to Him to help spread the truth of God’s love and gift of salvation. Last time we saw that we need an accurate look at ourselves ...read more
