For Lord’s Day, January 20, 2013 Dear Saints, What’s the use in waiting? Something in particular stood out to me in Elder Huffmaster’s leading of our Psalm 27 devotion last Lord’s Day morning which addresses that question. The last verse (vs. 14) reads: “Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen […]
For Lord’s Day, January 13, 2013 Dear Saints, In my devotional readings this week, a verse really stood out to me in light of our Wednesday study of Revelation 6:1-8, where Jesus opens the scroll’s first four seals and unleashes the four horsemen (Himself being the first and leading the way): “Verily I say unto you, There […]

For Lord’s Day, December 16, 2012 Dear Saints, Last Lord’s Day evening we heard from God through Micah 6:8 (noted by some as the Golden Rule of the Old Testament and the summary of the Ten Commandments). It was a call to do good through doing justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with Him. We […]
Dear Saints, Is Jesus about to puke you out of His mouth? How would you know? By taking your spiritual temperature. He called us to do that individually and as a church this Wednesday in our evening study of His letter to the Church of Laodicea in Revelation 3:14-22. Before we think we can pass […]
