Choosing Joy

Margaret Feinberg calls it a sacred echo. God whispers something to your heart. You think you hear but you aren’t sure. Then, the same thing is repeated somehow, someway and… if you are paying attention, you can catch the whisper of God, from His heart to yours.  God speaking to you, through His Word, through…

Living Faith, Dead Faith

Last week, in James chapter 1 we discovered three things that define a religion {faith walk} that is acceptable to God. keeping a tight rein on our tongue {James 1:26} caring for widows and orphans {the needy} in their distress {James 1:27a} keeping ourselves from being polluted by the world  {James 1:27b} Now for chapter…
