War, politics, lies, betrayal, the murdering of innocents, our young men and women in uniform dying on a battle field via men of power; takeovers of nations, riots and lawlessness, sin abounding, the church asleep or complacent for the most part; the gospel diluted, and do we even notice? Through all that is going on … Continue reading For Our Nation
Operating as the Biblical Body of Christ
It appears to me as though most of what are called “churches” here in the USA today are not the biblical body of Christ, operating as the biblical body of Christ, according to the teachings of the Scriptures. But rather they are institutions of human origin, partnered with the ungodly, which are being marketed to … Continue reading Operating as the Biblical Body of Christ
I Cannot Stop Speaking About Jesus Christ
Twenty-one years ago, in 2004, my husband Rick and I were training to be church planters with the Christian and Missionary Alliance (The Alliance), the church denomination I grew up under. Rick was going for his ordination, and I was going for my consecration.

And then most all of his servants, and his livestock, and all of his children were put to death. But Job’s response was, “The Lord gave and … Continue reading Trials Which Test Our Faith
God is The Strength of My Heart

False Gospel vs True Gospel
“So then, brethren, we are under obligation, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh— for if you are living according to the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you are putting to death the deeds of the body, you will live. For all who are being led by the … Continue reading False Gospel vs True Gospel
