A Super Bowl of Blessings

Approximately two thousand years ago, there was a young boy who brought some bread and fish to a Revival Meeting with the Messiah. Over five thousand other people where there, and not a single one of them thought to bring a snack. They spent the day listening to Jesus teach and watching Him heal the […]

What is truth?

The current political atmosphere is more of a circus than an election. Multiple parties and candidates telling us we must believe and vote for them because they alone know the truth. Whose truth?
