Christ followers, under the power of the Holy Spirit, will tell everyone about Him. (Acts 1:8)
HOW SHOULD THE CHURCH RESPOND TO THOSE ENSLAVED TODAY? “Wash yourselves. Cleanse yourselves. Remove your evil deeds from My sight. Stop doing evil. Learn to do what is good. Seek justice. Rebuke the oppressor. Defend the rights of the fatherless. Plead the widow’s cause” (Isaiah 1:16-19). The church cannot ignore the issue of human trafficking. The... Continue Reading →

Where does time go? It seems only yesterday that I was playing right tackle for the Greenback Cherokees. Just minutes ago, I was looking into the eyes of the most beautiful girl in the world as I said, "I Do." And our children, how could they all have grown up so fast? Somewhere it hits...
