'Today's Little Lift' from Jim Bullington

However, not…(continue reading article)

What's the Worst That Could Happen?

Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook"
Law in the Heart

"The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide."   Psalms 37:31 Put the law into the heart, and the whole man is right.

'Every Day Light' with Selwyn Hughes
The End of the Search

Today our exploration of Ecclesiastes comes to an end. We have traveled with Solomon over many roads, and have listened to a wide variety of reflections. The world does not have the resources to meet the needs of the soul, he has been saying, and any attempt to try to find meaning in life apart from God is utterly futile.…… — ( click here to read more )

Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer
Morning / Evening Devotional — August 5

Among the innocent victims of this effete and degenerate age, there is none so pure and so beautiful as love. Next to the word God with its various forms, there is no word so fair in all the language. Yet it may be said without qualification that this beautiful word has so suffered in the house of its friends as now to be scarcely recognizable.… … — ( click here to read more )
