- The Heart of a Real Christian
Hello Friends,
How are you doing today! As I was sitting in my office this week, I found myself traveling back in time, but not too far back in time. I travelled back to last weekend when the weather was beautiful: the sun was shining, the birds were singing, there were a few clouds hovering in ...

- The Church of Laodicea: Making Decisions
Hello Friends,
How are you doing? Did you enjoy the snowy weather last weekend? As I sat in the office, I found myself gazing out the window watching the snow gently fall to the ground. When I got ready to leave the office, I noticed that those gently falling snowflakes were piled up, about four inches ...
- The Church of Philadelphia: Love is all You Need
Hello Friends,
How are you doing? When I was attending school, a question that was often asked by my teachers was, “How is it with your soul?” This question deserved more than an “okay,” or “I’m fine,” or even “I’m good.” This question provoked us students to really think about how we are doing–what we are ...

Hello Friends,

One day it feels like spring…another day I want to stay inside under a blanket…another day it is raining…another day there is a chance for some snow…another day the sun is shining…and on another day the the grey clouds just won’t go away.
