How important is prayer in your life?
I have learned more and more just how important prayer is in our daily lives. Too often, we go about our days and forget that God wants us to talk to Him and spend time in his Word. Fellowship with God in prayer, isn’t only for talking to God, but it is also the way…

Family
The Bible teaches that God established two institutions one is the Church, which we talked about earlier, and the second is the Family.

“Stubborn old man.”
I don’t mean that title to upset anyone, but that is how I was feeling today. So, it is Sunday and my dad wasn’t feeling well at church, so after the morning service he decided to go home and sleep instead of stay for the afternoon fellowship and lunch. But less than a half hour…
