Take Heart

Take Heart
By Matt Chandler and David Roark

Christendom is dead. And that’s a good thing.

The Christian culture that has underpinned Western society for centuries has been eroded.  We’re now at the point where to disagree with people on issues such as marriage and sexuality, is seen as hateful.  Christians are no longer seen as honorable, but as bigots.  But history testifies that the more people try to destroy Christianity, the more it grows.  (more…)

Follow The Cloud

Follow The Cloud
By John Stickl

There is a big difference between being set free and living free.

How do I know what to do with my life? How do I hear God’s voice?  Maybe the answer is easier than we think.  When God led the Israelites from Egypt to the Promised Land, He gave them a cloud to follow.  He led them in an intimately personal, ever-present way one next step at a time.  He led them without revealing the whole picture because he wanted them to follow by faith.  (more…)

The Prayer of the Lord

The Prayer of the Lord
By R.C. Sproul

What is the Lord’s Prayer?  In The Prayer of the Lord, Dr. R. C. Sproul writes, “Jesus’ intent was to give His disciples a model prayer, an example to follow, one that would teach them transferrable principles for conversation with God.”  In short, Christ gave the Lord’s Prayer to teach His disciples about prayer, and Dr. Sproul, in his trademark fashion, brings out many of the truths Christ intended for His followers to learn.
