Here’s Help for the “I Can’t Say ‘No’ Blues”
by Kimberly Chastain I hear it all the time. Cries from Christian women who want desperately to serve the Lord, but who feel overwhelmed. “I almost dread going to PTO meetings or church services anymore because I just know somebody else is going to ask me to help with something,” they say. “Don’t get me wrong. I want to help, but there are only so many hours in my day. I feel like I’m just going to explode if I don’t get some relief.” Your Mission Field At Work
by Kimberly Chastain One point many Christian Working Moms who have been interviewed have made is that they are a shining light in their work place. Whether or not you can speak openly about your faith at work, your co-workers are watching. Are they seeing Jesus in you? No Ishmaels Please
by James M. Becher Just like Abraham of old, we often try to bring about results through our own efforts. The Greatest Love and Self-image
by James M. Becher The Greek language had three different words for “Love.”
While it takes all kinds of love and loving to make a good home and marriage, the common element of "what you do" runs through all the forms that love takes. We are of great value both because of our creation and also because of the price paid for our redemption. What Jesus Expects of You and Me
by Glenda Thomas Recently I have been blessed to travel to several states along with my husband as he preaches gospel meetings. On my travels I have been presenting workshops to Christian women about God’s purpose for their lives. I have discovered that it is common to find women who do not know what their purpose is or what God-given gifts that they have to fulfill their purpose. Why More Priests Need To Train As Fighters (And Why We Dont See Many Boxers In Church)
by Rev. David B. Smith So much of the church nowadays reeks of a sort of insipid middle-class moralism that really does care more about smoking and swearing than it does about domestic violence or world hunger. I don’t think the Lord Jesus or St Paul ever intended to spawn any of these Christianized golf clubs that call themselves churches. Personally, I suspect that Jesus and the apostles would feel more at home in the average boxing gym today than they would in the average church. About The Spiritual World of Madonna
by Moshe Reinfeld Pop singer Madonna came this week to Israelto take part in a congress of Kaballa studies and visit the graves of Jewish righteous holy people near Safed, a small town in northern Israel. Meaning and Marketing - The Will
by Paul R Snell Do you know what the Will is? Do you want to know? If so, they are the same. "Willing" and "Wanting" are synonymous. Do not confuse the "heart" or "feelings" with the Will. This is a trap. "Feelings" are fickle and so is the heart, though both can be useful and helpful. The Will is eternal... Harry Potter To Christians: Its Not Good To Hear Voices
by Mark B. Replogle Harry Potter learned that hearing voices even in the wizarding world is not a good thing. Does this truism also apply to christians who want to hear God's voice? We Must Be Ready. But How?
by Marilynn Dawson Revelation 19:7 states, “Let us rejoice and give honor unto him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.” -- Our salvation is not accomplished by anything we can do, or be. Our redemption is through the blood of the Lamb, shed for our sins... The Christmas Victory
by James M. Becher do you stop to ask yourself what is the real meaning of Christmas? If you do, what is your answer? Simply that a babe was born in a manger 2000 years ago? .....
if we would realize the full intent of His coming as given by God in the Holy Scriptures, we would see that we have good reason for making Christmas the major holiday it is and for celebrating to the hilt. ...we need no longer fear the
multiple forces that may be arrayed against us... Finding God in the Clouds
by Chad J. Bring "In the Bible, clouds are always associated with God. Clouds are the sorrows, suffering, or providential circumstances, within or without our personal lives, which actually seem to contradict the sovereignty of God. Yet it is though these very clouds that the Spirit of God is teaching us how to walk by faith. They are a sign that God is there." (Steven Curtis Chapman) Top Ten Religion Quotations

by James M. Becher Thanksgiving should not be relegated to only one day a year... the spread of sin and degradation in the world is a direct result of unthankfulness toward God...an unthankful attitude is the first step on a dangerous downward spiral...both individually and nationally. On the positive side, the more we are thankful for the blessings we have, the more blessings we will receive. Isnt There But One God?
by David Butcher I heard a pastor say, regarding people of the Muslim faith, “Too bad they are praying to the wrong God!” This was during a Sunday morning sermon. I flinched. Doesn’t the Bible say that there is only one God? How To Avoid Deception!
by Lance Ryan “The last great delusion is soon to open before us. Anti Christ is to perform
his marvelous works in our sight. So closely will the counterfeit resemble the
true that it will be impossible to distinguish between them except by the Holy
Scriptures. By their testimony every statement and every miracle must be
tested.” Is Your Life Significant?
by DF Mapa In this world of increasing materialism, instant gratification and compromised morals, finding significance in life is more like a search for the Holy Grail. But it is possible. Here's how... Bible and Kabbalah: The Hardening of Pharoahs Heart
by Michael Ozair We have a big theological dillema regarding a Biblical verse that describes the "hardening" of Pharoah's heart by God. The problem is that if God was controlling Pharoah's heart, then Pharoah had no choice to do what he did and was therefore not really making his own decisions. Why then blame and punish Pharoah for anything? Early Spring Cleaning
