Many Christians have a favorite day during the Resurrection season. We really shouldn’t. Our Lord Jesus Christ, God in the flesh, had to fulfill all of the Law of God and pay for our sins, removing them from us. Therefore no one day of this time of remembrance is less important than the other. We... Continue Reading →
Franklin Graham said “I have even been asked if Jesus were physically walking on earth now, would He be an advocate for vaccines.

Martha’s brother died and she said to Jesus, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection on the last day.” Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me will live even if he dies, and everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die.... Continue Reading →
Faces Of The Civil War From Eckley

Built To The Glory of God
Old churches speak of Christ much more than today’s churches do.

Fresh Snow Covers a Multitude of Sins
Nothing like a nice coating of fresh snow to cover over the dark, black grit from the last snowfall. I managed to get some nice photographs this time. Fresh snow is beautiful and makes me think of the forgiveness of sins. Everything is new moment by moment. Ultimately, all things will be new in the... Continue Reading →
