Value the Right Thing
by Curt Dodd on October 10th, 2024
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” (Hebrews 13:5) Companionship is a powerful thing, but the almighty monetary unit makes for a strange bedfellow. Too many of us are sucked into the vortex of making friends with either the abundance of wealth or the desire for the abundance of havi... Read More

How To Start Reading Your Bible
by Curt Dodd on August 12th, 2024
For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. (Hebrews 4:12)The Bible is alive for you today. If you haven't experienced that, you need to spend time alone with God. As you are hungry to hear His voice, just breathe a simple prayer, “Jesus,...
