August 30, 2023Three Statements About Love
We don’t hear the words, “I love you” enough. And we certainly don’t say it often enough. If you can think of someone who needs to hear this from you, don’t wait.

Ages and Stages of Growing Up
All who work with babies and bottles, toddlers and high chairs, building blocks and toy boxes enjoy one of the special delights life offers. Yet with all the thrills, there are also the threats unique to newborns. Being so tiny and dependent, their little lives often hang perilously close to danger and death. What is true of infant humans is equally true of infant believers in God's family.
The Value of Knowing the Scoop
Teaching from 1 Timothy 4:1–6 and 1 Peter 3:13–16, Pastor Chuck Swindoll explains how to secure your faith to the right foundation, God’s inspired Word.
Bricks That Build a Marriage
The reality of crumbling marriages in our world should cause God’s people to stand up and take notice. Thankfully, the Bible provides clear direction regarding the proper materials it takes to build a lasting marriage.
Grace in Marriage
We all know love is important to marriage. But how much thought do we give to grace in marriage? It can make all the difference in a relationship.
Dryer Balls and Discontent
This makes me wonder how society’s practice of social shaming affects the way we imagine God feels about us. Do we subconsciously believe we have to look or behave a certain way to gain His approval?
Watch Out for Cheap Substitutes!
God’s plan for renovating a house into a home calls for some specific behaviours and attitudes, which serve as bricks or building blocks for the relationship. Some of these bricks are contributed by the wife and some by the husband. Regrettably, both sets of bricks can be substituted with cheap imitations. These may seem to be adequate and acceptable at first, but over the long haul, they cause great damage.
Is Honesty The Best Policy?
Honesty is the quality of being genuine and uncorrupted. And from that core, like the trunk of a tree, it branches three ways.
The Apostles' Creed
The Apostles’ Creed is the Church’s statement of faith—but it is not often explained! For personal study, it’s helpful to use a Bible commentary. A commentary examines Scripture verse by verse and sheds likes on difficult passages.
Charm and Elegance
Verbal restraint is a virtue, which applies to both men and women. If you struggle with this quality consider the three-second pause. Waiting before speaking gives you time to think about your words—are they true? Are they kind? Are they necessary?
