JACKIE writes:

Today, I woke up wondering, "Will today be like yesterday's yesterday?" Will I finally experience true happiness or will the cycle of dissatisfaction continue as my relationships seem like a hotel with a revolving door...people check in but they rarely stay.

That preacher was on TV last night talking about Jesus loves me. Why in the world… Continue

Pete and Repeat in God's Garden

Have you heard the story about Pete and Repeat who sat in God's garden?

When Pete repeated what Repeat had been told by a flower in a desperate hour...
God was set aside and Pete could be glorifed.

(some believe that the only way to make flowers grow is to use their own special brand of ...manure.)

Manure = ManUR full of yourself.

Is it wrong for Believers to argue about theological matters?

IS IT WRONG FOR BELIEVERS TO ARGUE ABOUT THEOLOGICAL MATTERS?

TEXT

2 Timothy 2:14, 23

PROBLEM:

The Apostle Paul seemed to forbid theological arguments when he instructed Timothy "not to strive about words to no profit" and to "avoid foolish and ignorant disputes". On the other hand, Paul himself argued with the Jews in their synagogues (Acts 17:2, 17) and disputed… Continue

Rosh Hashanah And The Jewish New Year

Rosh Hashanah And The Jewish New Year

This lesson was written by Rinah Shalom

Blowing The Trumpet

In Biblical times, the shofar was used primarily by military commanders and officers, to communicate during wartime. Gideon and his 300 men, each one sounding a shofar, led their enemies to believe that there were 300 commanders, and hence thousands of soldiers. (Judges 7:16-20) The shofar was also used to warn civilians of enemy attack… Continue

Helper / Helpmeet / Helpmate.....

EXPERIENCE IS WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU DON'T GET WHAT YOU WANTED

b>EXPERIENCE IS WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU DON'T GET WHAT YOU WANTED.

What's the difference between a pessimist and an optimist?

The pessimist never sees the life that is springing forth from a burned down forest. They don't see the new growth of grass and trees. They don't see the sun shinning every morning. All they remember is the horror of the fire.

The optimist, however, sees the new growth and is grateful… Continue
