No Gumby God

By |Categories: Articles, Exodus, Series: I AM|Tags: , |6 Comments

I have a friend who loves puns and word plays (you know who you are!) Sometimes his humor makes you groan, but sometimes he hits it right on the mark.

I may be showing my age, but Gumby was popular when I was young. Gumby is a simple cartoon-like character that [...]

A Forgiving God

Categories: 1 John, Articles, Featured, Psalms, Series: Nature of God|Tags: , |

Oh, what a glorious thing to be forgiven! To no longer carry the guilt of your sins! God’s willingness to forgive all who come to Him in true humility and repentance is an amazing thing.

Book Review: Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire by Jim Cymbala

By |Categories: Book Reviews|Tags: |

In 1972, a young, untrained pastor struggled to lead a small, multiracial church in a drug-ridden neighborhood of Brooklyn. There was no money for a pastor’s salary, no money for much-needed repairs, no money to even pay the mortgage. One Sunday night, Pastor Jim Cymbala began to preach.

  • The Staggering Question June 1, 2023
    He said to me, "Son of man, can these bones live?" —Ezekiel 37:3Can a sinner be turned into a saint? Can a twisted life be made right?
