Where Growth and Grace Meet
When the Lord God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him,” certainly He knew the helper He was to create would be vastly different than her husband. I mean, at least that is the thought which occurred to me today as I surveyed the life…

The GRID of the Gospel
What joyful challenge and comfort it is when the chapters and verses of the good news and message of Jesus Christ (the Gospel) run parallel and perpendicular to one another, pointing the way which I should go – the most divinely perfect map ever to be created.

A Reminder
I had to read this passage a few times this morning. It is full of powerful truth. For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and…
