Psalm 33:19, 20 “To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine. Our soul waiteth for the LORD: he is our help and our shield.”
In May of 2002, my family and I were in Arkansas for some weekend evangelistic meetings. On Sunday, we headed back home to Dallas, Texas. My wife and I packed our things into the car, called the children, and left the Hindsville church were we had been staying.
"And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left." — Isaiah 30:21
Soon after I accepted Christ as my Saviour in 1975, my wife, Kathy, and I decided to visit our friends in Minnesota. While planning the trip, we decided that we would first stop by Wisconsin to visit my family, and from there we would head on up to Minnesota.
Dear Brethren,
The El Nino drought affecting Papua New Guinea is taking its toll.
Our members and their children in Papua New Guinea are in great need of assistance. Members cannot access their food sources, namely their gardens, due to frost and drought. Over 10 weeks of no rain has meant that their dependence on the only water source to water their gardens has dried up.
Funds are needed to purchase food.
“My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother.”
-Proverbs 1:8
In the early spring of 2007, my family, including my parents, were driving on a picturesque road called Skyline Drive.1 The forest was in bloom, and we enjoyed the scenic drive, stopping every once in a while to take pictures and appreciate nature. My father told me he’d like to see a bear during our trip. I told him there was a possibility we would see one, but after three hours on the road, we had seen much wildlife, but no bears.
True Education: a Science
“Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth” (2 Timothy 3:7). This surely describes today’s society—including much of Christendom, does it not? Sophisticated educational institutions and online courses plentifully abound in the information age with its vast technological advancements. Knowledge is certainly increasing. Yet despite the positive developments in various realms, how rare in this generation is the jewel of vital godliness—the priceless gem of a Christlike character!
