In addition to our devotional blogs, this year we will be adding another regular feature – Worship Wednesdays, where we highlight worship music that we have been blessed and encouraged by. This is in hopes of sharing that blessing with you. Worship, and specifically musical worship, is an important way to shift our focus back […]
Happy New Year folks! I am sure that we all feel a sense of relief in being able to put 2020 to rest and start a new year with the hope of things getting better for our world this year. I was pondering these things this morning and reminded of these wonderful verses from the […]
At this time of year our thoughts are often focused on Christmas. It’s been an odd year to say the least and so of course that can lead to an odd Christmas – perhaps you won’t be able to see your loved ones or have that huge family reunion you so cherish. However, if this […]
1 Peter 4:7-8 The end of the world is coming soon. Therefore, be earnest and disciplined in your prayers. Most important of all, continue to show deep love for each other, for love covers a multitude of sins. In the early first century AD, Peter wrote that the end of the world was coming SOON. […]
