Wash Your Heart (Jeremiah 4:14)
'Today's Little Lift' from Jim Bullington
There is a reason why Jeremiah is called the weeping prophet! There is a reason why the shorter of his two books is called Lamentations [Weepings]! Our study today will examine a passage from the book of Jeremiah and just how relevant his preaching was and still is! Here is the setting – Jerusalem was awash with…(continue reading article)
Taking Offense
''Winging It' from Stan Smith
Our culture these days seems almost to be built on being offended. We are offended by anything and everything. When I used the word "boy" in a brief comment to a black person (referrring to her young son), she took offense. When the movie, Tropic Thunder, had one actor describe another as a "retard",…(continue reading article)

Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.
Whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD.

Perfect Willingness
"Thy people shall be willing in the day of Thy power." Psalms 110:3
Blessed be the God of grace that it is so! He has a people whom He has chosen from of old to be His peculiar portion.

Voice of the Lord
Devotional for 'Elul 29'
In ancient Israel, the shofar (ram's horn) was sounded to announce the visit of a king, to call the people to prepare their town for his entry, and to escort him into their walls. Yom Teru'ah (the day of the shofar-blast; see Numbers 29:1), recalls the shofar-blast at Mount Sinai that announced the presence of the Lord and called Israel to welcome him.

Chip Shots from the Ruff of Life
Trouble with Words
Every now and then notices and advertisements are posted which could be worded a little bit better. If you're like me, when you read these kind of things you have to wonder if someone just wasn't quite on their game for the day. But that's what makes these kinds of statements and pronouncements such treasures.…… — ( click here to read more )
'Every Day Light' with Selwyn Hughes
A Thorough God
In these verses we come face to face with the thoroughness of God. However ragged life may seem in a fallen world, the Creator knows no such imperfections. Everything He does is not only permanent, but complete: "nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it" (v. 14). Ever sent for something and found that when…… — ( click here to read more )

Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer
Morning / Evening Devotional — September 20
God will speak to us if we read and study and obey the Word of God! But when He does speak, we should speak back to Him in prayer and devotion. Otherwise, we are among the Christians who are mired down right where we are. Many in our congregations have grown older and yet are not one inch farther up the mountain than on that day when the sun first…

The Believer's Daily Remembrancer
"I have gone astray like a lost sheep." Psalms 119:176
"I have gone astray like a lost sheep." Psalms 119:176 THIS is the humble confession of a man of God, and may not we adopt it as our own this morning? Have not we also gone astray? Does not this display our weakness? How weak to wander from so kind a Shepherd, so rich a pasture, so good a fold! Is it not a mark of inattention? Jesus…

Theologians Respond to String of End of the World Date Predictions
For the past several decades, some Christians have declared that they know the date and time of Christ's return or the end of the world, predictions sometimes based on numerology.

Dreamers Are Not a Charity Case, They Are America's Future
While I understand and respect the importance of borders and security, those protected by this policy are worthy of our compassion and concern. This is not a question of border security -- these individuals have already been in the country for many years, some for decades.
