It is so easy for us to be critical of people who look at the world differently than we do. That is one of the things I ask God to help me with daily in my prayers “to not have a critical attitude”. God tells us not to judge others. We have to guard ourselves against judging others by what seems right in our eyes. You think about it we all come from different places and we all value different things in life. Paul talks about how fellow believers will see things different than

Do we fear the Lord? Fear has a few meanings, often fear is used as in being frightened. That is not what I am talking about today. To “fear the Lord” in the bible means, having a deep respect, reverence and awe for God’s power and authority.

Today, we live in an environment where cancel culture is making the news every day. Thankfully, we have a Savior that did not can

Jesus of Nazareth was a penniless teacher from Galilee that changed history. There has never been another human like Jesus. He led a life that we still read about today. His goodness, His courage, and His love has had more of an impact than any other human in history. Jesus did not come to impress us, but He came to save the lost. God came down as a human to live among us to die on the cross for our sins, then rose from the tomb. He simply wants us to reach out to Him and tru
