Are we preparing future Preachers?
Statistics vary on how many congregations are looking for Preachers. We know for certain the demand to fill pulpits across the brotherhood is greater than the supply! Our young men are being told to become engineers, welders, doctors, lawyers, diesel mechanics, and the list goes on. How many of our young men are being talked …
Could You Use Some Good News Today?
Watching the violence & pain our society continues to endure the last few days, I’m reminded of the song “A Little Good News” which Anne Murray began singing in 1983. The song describes how “the news” can only report the bad things going on because that’s all we see around us. The song sends the …
Following Jesus
Unfortunately, compromise has become commonplace & a willingness to go along just to get along has become the mindset of most religious bodies of our day.

Many problems create burdens for us and steals our freedom. Jesus is the best example when seeking how to deal with burdens & trials. Hebrews 5:8-9 says though He was a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which He suffered. And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all …
When Are You Going To Retire?
The older we get the more often we are asked this question. U.S. News & World Report stated in 2014 about half of retirees were forced to retire sooner than expected. The average retirement age is around age 62. Most of the time a retirement plan is built around a retirement age. When someone retires …
Be All You Can Be
As Christians are we being ALL WE CAN BE? We all have talent that allows us to make contributions to the expansion of God’s Kingdom. When we don’t utilize our talents we have a tendency to utilize excuses. Moses struggled with this as well. We know Moses as a Leader but he also made excuses: …
