Four Core Characteristics of God

Last updated on: June 28, 2018 at 10:14 pm By Jack Wellman

Here are four core attributes or characteristics of God that have not and will not ever change. Holiness One characteristic of God is that He cannot dwell with or be in the presence of sin.

The Exodus And Christian Conversion

Last updated on: June 15, 2018 at 5:25 pm By Jack Wellman

How is the Exodus from Egypt like a Christian’s conversion? Are there similarities? The Exodus When God heard the cries of His people under their harsh bondage to the Egyptians, God told Moses that He was going to free His people. After a series of plagues, and Pharaoh’s persistent refusal to free the Israelites, God promised that every firstborn, both man and beast would die. Only the firstborn of those who would take a spotless lamb’s blood and apply it... Read more

Last updated on: June 14, 2018 at 3:54 pm By Jack Wellman

Why are so many more dads missing from homes today? What has it cost their children and the nation?

How Grief And Sorrow Birthed A Vision of Giving

Last updated on: June 6, 2018 at 12:53 pm By Jack Wellman

Here is a ministry that proves beauty can come from ashes. Ashes to Beauty A.W. Tozer wrote, “It is doubtful whether God can bless a man greatly until He has wounded him deeply,” but in this article, we’ll see it as, “God cannot use a man greatly until He has wounded him deeply,” and deep are the wounds that death often brings. The Word of God cuts like a doubled-edged sword, but it cuts in order to heal, not kill.... Read more

How To Grow Closer To God By Reading The Bible

Last updated on: May 30, 2018 at 5:37 pm By Jack Wellman

How can reading the Word of God draw you closer to God?

It seems like addictions are growing as are the number of things we can become addicted to, so how do we overcome addictions? Addictions Addictions are those things we just can’t seem to live without. It might be shopping, smoking, exercise, drinking, drugs, or some other addiction, but not all addictions are bad.
