Did you get yours yet?  You know, the invitation to feast with the King!  How many have ignored, or simply rejected that invitation!  And what has that gotten them?  Well, if we're to believe Jesus, they will get quite a lot of what they don't want, if they reject God for all eternity.  Listen and follow what you should do to enjoy the fullness of God's love for you!

Jesus, Son of God, man of love and humility, was always in danger, especially by the so-called religious leaders of His faith.  They thought they finally had Him when they asked him if it was right for anyone to pay the imperial tax to Caesar; which had He answered with a NO, they would have taken Him immediately to the Roman government and placed Him under arrest, and He would have surely be...

Ever attended a class by Professor Night?  Sat in auditing a class with Madame Day?  In Eugene Peterson's The Message Bible, we get treated to an uptempo, relevant interpretation of God's word in ways that bless and strengthen us.  We are looking at Psalm 18 and the wonderful way this passage frames the scriptures for this week.  Listen and join us!

Here they are!  The Big Ten!  The foundational structure on which God planned to build a people.  This happened in the moveable classroom that was the 40-year journey through the wilderness on the way to the Promised Land.  Join us as we join God!

Ever felt you could do everything on your own?  How did you feel when a little one told you to stop doing things for them?  How do you think God feels when we tell Him that we can do it alone?  Listen and be blessed to what Paul shares in this episode from his letter to the Philippians!

If you still have your grandparents, call them up right now and talk to them!  How often do you see them?  Once a year?  And you figure they will be here forever?  Don't you wish?  They're not!  Neither are you, but chances are you will out live them and the wisdom and counsel they could share with you right now, will serve you well!  Don't take them or their lov...

The kids are in the back.  The AC is not fully working.  The trip is taking longer than expected.  The lines at all stops were so long, no food was bought, no snacks.  The kids had been fine sipping Capri Suns and almond milk, but then real thirst hit, and Dad drank the last bottle of water!  Panic sets in.  Where is the next stop?  You get the idea of the pressu...

Paul's letters to the churches of his time speak even today to you and me.  Listen to today's devotional and see how what he said applies to your daily walk with Jesus.  His pleas for believers to walk closer with Christ will never grow old!

What kind of authority do you have in your life?  How easily do you share authority with others?  That was the question asked of Jesus by the chief priests and elders about Jesus' work; Jesus asked them an honest question they could not answer.  How we answer the question about surrendering our authority with Jesus has eternal consequences!  Listen and be blessed!

In this devotional we look at the psalm where David says to witness through singing and "belting our hymns" to the Lord.  Listen to learn how to share and witness your faith with others!

What was Moses up to?  And who was right?  Moses?  Or the people?  Listen to this dramatic encounter (again) between the people of Israel and their God.  Be blessed!

You have to give credit to the Apostle Paul!  He was a man after Jesus' own heart.  Once he had that life-altering encounter with the Risen Christ, Paul's life was never the same.  He knew all that would come his way, especially that one day he would die and go to be with Jesus; and he was the most motivated and possibly the greatest evangelist of all time!  Listen and learn fr...

Did you ever sing the childhood chorus called, "Half-Day's Work?"  What in the world did that mean?  Listen and find out!  Jesus shares a parable that says the opposite; doesn't matter when you start, your pay will be the same as those that started early in the day!  Be blessed!

What kind of things scare you?  What kind of things can scare mountains, oceans, rivers, and hills?  Listen and find out!  The psalmist does a wonderful job of sharing his vision of how things act in the presence of God.

God used tremendous power to save His people when they came to the Red Sea, much the same way that He has done some pretty unexplainable, but awesome things in your life.  What are you doing about it?  Who have you told about it?  Listen to the story of God leading the people of Israel across and through the Red Sea!

Imagine living in the capital city of Rome, where everyone was expected to worship Caesar as god.  Could you, as a Christian believer, worship a man?  Of course not!  The harder question, would you eat the already sacrificed meat to an idol of Caesar as part of your diet?  Some could, some couldn't.  Listen and learn what that was all about!

Our God is an awesome God and sometimes blesses us with surprise answered prayers that we didn't ask for!  Listen and learn about what David encountered as he wrote about his faith in our God.

What about your faith says you believe in a loving, involved, active God?  Listen to the story of the Passover and find out!  Moses' job was an important one, and it was perhaps the hardest 40 years of his life.  Find out why!

Did Jesus really say where two or three are gathered there could be trouble? Or was that Elvis? No, what Jesus really said was there is great power in the prayers and worship of two or three who gather in His name! Listen and be blessed!

One week, you're flying high as a hero in Jesus' eyes; the next week, you're called Satan.  Oops!  You've gone from hero to zero in no time flat!  I've been there, and perhaps you have too; but it's not over.  Listen to this account of Peter and the other disciples as they hear the news that Jesus must suffer and die.  Maybe it might just be the message you need to hear!

The psalmist had a point of gratitude and attitude!  The righteous person knows where to point and say, "If it wasn't for God, I wouldn't _______". I pray you are a righteous person with a heart filled with gratitude for all God has done for you and in you!  Today's devotional looks at that.  Listen and be blessed!
