Look! The virgin will conceive a child. She will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel, which means 'God with us'." Matthew 1:23 Jesus most definitely is "the reason for the season!"

Not many of us regularly used video telecommunications for our work a few months ago. That changed in a big way when the COVID-19 pandemic hit late last winter. Caught flat-footed by a new spreading virus that made it necessary to limit or cease social contact, video conferencing platforms saved the day for those of [...]

"Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty." Psalm 91:1 Most of us generally fit into one of two categories. We're either like Mary or Martha, the sisters who opened their home to Jesus in Luke 10. Martha hurried around making preparations for the meal that [...]

It's gratifying to see disciple making "work" the way it's supposed to. This happens when someone is discipled and they in turn began making disciples themselves. That has been the case with the author of the following testimonial. Not only did Ray Singer pay it forward by investing in others after being discipled, became a [...]
