The Grateful Tree
Thanksgiving is a time of year that is seen as an opportunity to recognize all that we are thankful for. A season filled with traditions, festivities, and lots of food! This year our family is starting something new. We found a picture of a tree painted on a cloth portrait, and it has the word...
In the Beginning, God Said…
“I know I know, your Bible says, ‘In the beginning God created…'”. However, if you think about it, He did both; He said and He created: Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light (Gen 1:3). Then God said, “Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let...
Down the Lane

You Can’t Stay There
Now it came about after the death of Moses the servant of the Lord, that the Lord spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ servant, saying, “Moses My servant is dead; now therefore arise, cross this Jordan, you and all this people, to the land which I am giving to them, to the sons...
Rise Up
Recently, I read an article about Pastor Greg Laurie and Harvest Ministries. It talked about an event that they were hosting and the difficulties the ministry incurred leading up to the event. The main issue discussed was in their advertising. The ministry used a marketing firm to advertise their event on bill boards in California....
