Prosperity Gospel
You know what? I am really getting tired of preachers who hypocritically blast the “prosperity gospel”. Prosperity gospel? That’s what they like to call it. It’s true, there are definitely people who live for the buck. They treat the word of God like it’s their good luck charm. But that’s nothing new. Paul even had…

Familiarity
Familiarity: -the state of being familiar with something -the state of having knowledge about something -a friendly and informal way of acting or talking There’s an old, well-known expression regarding familiarity.

Most Important Person
Who is the most important person in the world? Allow me to answer that by asking a number of other questions first. Who is able to give the quickest care to people in your world? Who has the resources to encourage your next door neighbors? Who can show the reality of a living, loving Savior…

Words and Pictures
Words and pictures. A picture is worth a thousand words, and a thousand words create a picture. What kind of picture do your words create? A picture of a peaceful, trusting, caring relationship with your spouse? Or are you creating a war zone with your mean-spirited, degrading, and hateful words? Time to evaluate. Take a…
