The psalmist interrogates the sea, Jordan, and the mountains, in a familiar … [Read More...] Psalm 114:1-8

R.A. Torrey: "Church Membership" While How to Succeed in the Christian Life may sound too much like Your Best Life Now for comfort, it's really just a short book to help new believers. Torrey's words are quite basic, but they reinforce for us a truth which is often disregarded in today's church (and clearly was a problem … [Read More...] The Church & Our Place in It: Week 2
