It’s that time of year when some of us shudder as eerie figures are paraded across people’s yards and little children prepare for the biggest candy fest of the season. All Hallow’s Eve, All Saints Day, All Souls Day, and Halloween all come together into a celebration that has become the second biggest commercial holiday, […]
Proverbs 4:23 advises us to protect our hearts. Then it attaches another thought. “For your heart is the wellspring of life.” First of all, what does it mean to protect our hearts? How do we do that? Why do we need to do that? Obviously, the organ in the center of your being that pumps […]

Who’s important in your life? When you were brand new to the world, your parents and guardians were your go-to people. […]
Hebrews 10:23 talks about holding on, encouraging us to trust and believe what we have learned in the past. It says, “We must hold on to God’s promise that we have said we believed. And we must never let go. He has promised and he will do it.” I don’t know how you interpret this […]
