There’s an army of people they’re marching on Their faces like flint but their hearts are warm It’s the army of God in an end time war They’ve got a lot of scars but they just don’t care ‘Cause they’ve set their hearts on a battle won And they’ll give their lives for a victor’s crown You can hear them shout as they still fight on In their weary heart they’ve still got a song. There’s a battle fier...

Who has held the oceans in His hands? Who has numbered every grain of sand? Kings and nations tremble at His voice, All creation rises to rejoice. Refrain: Behold our God seated on His throne, Come, let us adore Him! Behold our King! Nothing can compare, Come, let us adore Him! Who has given counsel to the Lord? Who can question any of His words? Who can teach the One Who knows all things? Who can...

I’m a tool for the task Of the Master’s Great Commission He said “Go ye into all the world.” I have a voice to tell the story And eyes to see the hurting And arms that I can open wide in love.

Source unknown...

There’ll be a bright new world for us to share. Some day there’ll be an end to unkind words and cruel The man who said there is no God will know he is a fool And peace will be a way of li...

God, our refuge when in trouble, God, our strength when death is near; Though the earth should quake and tremble, yet Thy servants need not fear; Though the waters roar and tempest, mountains fall into the sea: Oh Father Thou are faithful, there is refuge ‘neath Thy wings. There’s a peaceful river flowing through this wild tempest’ous land Where a sinner may find healing and the weary be made glad...

Who is on the Lord’s side? who will serve the King? Who will be His helpers, other lives to bring? Who will leave the world’s side? Who will face the foe? Who is on the Lord’s side? Who for Him will go? By Thy call of mercy, by Thy grace divine, We are on the Lord’s side; Savior, we are Thine. Not for weight of glory, not for crown and palm, Enter we the army, raise the warrior psalm; But for love...

Starting with the imperative of genuine love, Brother Donald Brechbill speaks of the church’s interaction with society in three different ways: as a presence in society, as a voice in society, and as a person in society.

In a time of national reckoning when racism dominates the media, this message presents a unique perspective that God’s people are challenged to embrace. How should followers of Jesus respond to the polemic positions of individualism versus structuralism? How can Antioch be a lesson for the church today? Is peacemaking an escape from conflict, or an engagement among a hostile society? Learn how to...

Why is there pain in the world if God is good? If God could part the Red Sea, raise the dead, and stop the lion’s mouths, why did He let this happen to me? Does God really care about me? Why should I serve, let alone love Someone who, by all appearances, stands by and watches and maybe even plans the death, suffering, abandonment, and abuses in my life and all around me in the world? Every person...

From the life of the early Waldensians, Brother John D. Martin draws several practical lessons — The Preaching of the Gospel is non-negotiable. True Christians are committed to literal obedience.

The Biblical teachings of wealth shoul...

If the majority of growth is achieved this way, local converts to Christianity are not as likely to take ownership and responsibility for the future of the church.
