The Fear of the Lord Over the Fear of Man
by Tim Hardy on November 22nd, 2024
Isn’t it amazing how something of comfort, beauty, and appreciation can be experienced and then go worldwide? We have a local restaurant that serves, without a doubt, some of the best chocolate cake that ever went into your mouth. People will experience a bite and then take a picture of the deliriously delicious dessert in its clear clamshell container, then post it on social media for all the world to see and wait for the likes and comments. Yet when it comes to the things of Christ, most Christians have a “should I share this” mentality over an “I can’t wait to share this” mentality.  Read More
Hope in Change
by Tim Hardy on September 26th, 2024
In the city of Ephesus about 500 BC, there was a Greek philosopher by the name of Heraclitus. He is credited with the saying; “The only constant in life is change”. This quote has been passed along and requoted for over 2500 years, and there is truth in it. We can see through our lifespan from diapers to depends, change happens. Sometimes we have a voice in the change, other times (most of the tim...  Read More

This happened to me when I was recovering from surgery and had to sleep in my recliner. When the house lights were turned off, I was surprised at how many lights were still on. There were the flickering lights of our internet server, the power light on our TV, the little blue light...  Read More
Peace of God vs. Peace of Man
by Laura Brown on May 19th, 2022
Although sin was apparent in the world of my youth, it has now become blatantly broadcasted in the world today. More and more I find myself wanting and asking for the peace of God. However, even though I ask for the peace of God, He is showing me that my true desire is for the peace of man.The peace of man is the deep longing for unwanted circumstances to change. As Webster defines it, “Freedom fr...  Read More
What's in a Name?
by Laura Brown on February 17th, 2022
It was Shakespeare that wrote in Romeo and Juliet, “That which we call a rose by any other name would smell just as sweet.” His point was that names were irrelevant. However, I would argue that names are very relevant. Our own names are our very identity, intimate and personal. There is great meaning when people call us by name. This was made very evident to me when not very long ago. During our s...  Read More
Finding Comfort in the Sovereignty of God
by Laura Brown on March 11th, 2021
When my girls were little and beginning to reason and wonder, the one thing they had in common was the question of why. “Papa, why do pinecones fall down on the ground?” This one question would explode into multiple “why” questions.  Although it could be frustrating at times, their little minds were curiously hungry to try to understand the world around them. The questions of why were never a prov...  Read More
