The apostle Paul told his star pupil in the faith, Timothy, to “study to show yourself approved.” The Christian faith will not seep into our lives through osmosis. WE need to break open our Bibles and really dig into the contents if we are to find the buried treasure contained therein. Timothy was willing to … [Read more…]
It might seem a little unconventional, and maybe even downright cruel, to hear a message about one’s appetite on Thanksgiving Sunday.
