Hearing the Invisible

The Voice How often have you heard Christians commenting on what they understand as a lack of faith displayed by the Israelites?

Christians all over the world celebrate Christmas, although some believers are concerned about pagan elements in some of the traditions which have come to typify the celebration of Christmas.

The Power to Live a Contented Life

Ah, contentment—A life free from worry, fear, anxiety…those enemies of the godly existence. Nice car, nice house, financial security, perfect spouse, perfect children, perfect church…that’s what contentment is all about, right? Wrong! Unfortunately, that definition is accepted by many people today. Moreover, rather than helping us find the path to contentment, placing our hopes in

Freedom From Shame

We all have experienced shame at one time or another, but for many in our world today, it is a lifelong companion.
