Show kindness to others

It is attested by Scripture and everyday life itself, that one of the greatest ways for the Good News of Jesus Christ to penetrate our dark world, is for us to show kindness to others.

Crisis Time Compassion

The Lord is very compassionate and merciful.

If you are self-isolating, I can help.” An entire street in Italy erupted in song as quarantined neighbors stuck their heads from their windows and sang together. In Aust...

Broken To Be Shared

Often in our “real” lives, we feel completely inadequate for what lies ahead. As Glenn Packiam says below, to that dilemma, God says great, let’s roll! You give them something to eat.

Sometimes he came with questions to which no answers exist; sometimes he came with memories he wanted to relive. Over time, he accepted that even though the accident was a result of the brokenness in our world, God c...

Spiritual Solstice

It is of course nice to watch our investments grow during times of strong economy. When times of a weak economy, it can be discouraging to watch our funds stop their growth, or even lose some of what they had gained. However, financial advisers inform us that during the down economic times, there is a good thing taking place.

Am I Worthy?

Have you ever struggled with really feeling for certain that you are saved? I have. One of the reasons this happens is because we mistakenly look at ourselves: Am I worthy? Did I have enough faith? The great truth is that our salvation has nothing to do with our worthiness or performance. It has everything to do with God and what He did. Our only part is to collapse onto Christ, with whatever amount of faith we can muster. God has promised to do the rest. Milton Vincent, in his encouraging book...

Feeling Overwhelmed?

Imagine that you owed an enormous debt that must be paid, or else you would be put to death! You began to see things to pay the debt. You might start selling your clothes until you had one set of clothes left. But the debt is still not paid! You continue selling more things…your bicycle…the things you used for hobbies…eventually your car, determining you would just have to walk everywhere…at least you still had your life. In desperation, you resort to selling your hom...
