The Unsung Heroes

wade — Wed, 08 May 2013 21:12:20 +0000

The real heroes of life are more often than not, unknown, unappreciated and unsung. The subject of this article is a case in point. Everyone knows the hero, Moses, but few know the name of his heroic mother, to whom Moses owed so much. My vote for the unsung heroes of today goes to good, [...]

Why God Does Everything!

Why does God do what He does? I was greatly helped in understanding this question by something Dr. J. I. Packer wrote in his book Hot Tub Religion. He said: “The only answer that the Bible gives to questions that begin: “Why did God do this or that is for His own glory.” Everything God [...]

In our last article, we took our text from the first chapter of the book of Daniel, where we were introduced to a teenager named Daniel, who was an exile and a hostage, whose lifestyle had been radically altered by the Babylonian captivity.

Thriving, Not Just Surviving, in a Tough Work Environment — Part 1

wade — Tue, 09 Apr 2013 21:31:25 +0000

We live in a materialistic, self-indulgent, adolescent, infantile, child-like culture that has a very skewed view of the place and role of work. On the one hand you have workaholics that kill themselves and everything they touch trying to make a good living. On the other hand you have a large number who indicate their [...]

Four Lethal Misbeliefs About the Marketplace!

wade — Thu, 04 Apr 2013 02:32:53 +0000

Jesus valued the marketplace. Proof of this is found in the fact that of the 52 parables Jesus told, 45 had a workplace context; different forms of the word “work” are mentioned more than 800 times in the Bible. Of the 132 public appearances of Jesus, 122 were in the workplace. Of the 40 miracles [...]

Three women were making their way to the garden tomb on that first Easter morning with the intention of completing the embalming process on the body of Jesus. Just before arriving, it suddenly dawned on them that there was an impediment, an obstacle, which would hinder them from accomplishing their purpose. There was a great [...]

wade — Tue, 26 Mar 2013 21:11:24 +0000

Act 9:31, “So the church throughout all Judea and Galilee and Samaria had peace and was being built up. And walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, it multiplied.” Modern man’s attitude toward God (including that of most Christians) reveals the same problem that Martin Luther said [...]
