Brush the dust off your Bible. Half the sorrows of the world come about because people don't read their Bible. They simply don't know and can't understand the great truths it contains. Everyone likes to hear a secret, and the divine confidences and revelations are fascinating from every point of view. Jesus once said to [...]

Today I was waiting to get my daily dose of the Word from my favorite non-shouting Bible teacher on Christian satellite television.

"There was no room for them in the inn" (Luke 2:7). As Christmas day brings us around to the blessed story of the Savior's birth, it reminds us of a circumstance connected with that event which still is timely in its application.

"Peter, you'd better explain yourself." Well, I can better paraphrase the text as "Man shall not live by Praise and Worship alone." I want to emphasize the truth as applicable to today's expression of the church. In fact, you could replace any object and the truth that follows would still be valid. The quote is based [...]

Ephesians is loaded with truth, and there is just one word that I want to focus on to amplify the title above. But first, let's look at the "address on the envelope." Ephesians was definitely written to Christians: "to the saints who are in Ephesus, and are faithful in Christ Jesus" (1:1b ESV). Then follows [...]

Many times over many decades I've been lifted in a challenging time by just one verse of scripture. And I'm not alone, as an internet search will quickly reveal. Here's the verse I'm talking about, and its not even a complete sentence: "Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you" (I Peter [...]
