Expect things to not always go as expected
Learning that the world does not revolve around us is sometimes hard to accept. It is difficult to realize that we will not always get what we want, for God’s “thoughts are not [our] thoughts, neither are [our] ways [His] ways” (Isa 55: 8). Yet, we must trust Him, for He knows what is best for us. Read More...
Why Evil?
Every day there are stories in the news that make our hearts slump. Stories that make us realize that we live in an evil world. I have found myself wondering why things have to be the way they are. I have been asked by my friends that do not have complete faith, that if God is so loving, why does He allow all this evil to happen? Read More...

Goodbyes are Hard but not Forever
Yesterday, I said goodbye to a great woman, wife, mother, friend, and child of God, Thalia Hufton. It was awesome to see how many people loved her. There was standing room only left in the building, and I know many people that could not make it. It was definitely a powerful testimony to who Thalia was. Read More...
The Sabbath is a Delight
I have been asked many times, “Why do you keep the Sabbath?” In the past, I would give scriptural reasons of why I keep the Sabbath, and there are a lot of scriptures to back up the Sabbath. Yet, the other day, it hit me that I do not think I ever shared how much I enjoy the Sabbath as one of my reasons to honor it. So, I want to share why, for me, the Sabbath is a delight. Read More...
Bring on the Sabbath! - 613 Laws of the Torah
On Friday, July 11 at 7:30 PM central time we will be have a special presentation broadcast live on our website. Since we occasionally get questions about the 613 Laws of the Torah, former Ambassador College instructor Wes White will deliver a presentation on that subject.

Discord is not Iron Sharpening Iron
Have you ever witnessed someone saying something that they know is going to be controversial, but they say it anyway, causing an argument to happen? Some try to justify this kind of behavior by citing the “iron sharpens iron” principle of Proverbs 27:17. I really don’t think that is what this scripture means, and there is a definite line between “iron sharpening iron” and sowing discord. Read More...
True Freedom
Today is Independence Day for those of us in America. It is our day to celebrate our freedom. Don’t worry, I’m not going to get into politics or history because I am not really good at either subjects. No, what I really am thinking about today is that full complete freedom won’t come until the last trump. Read More...
In Honor of Thalia
On June 27, 2014, a bright light passed away. Thalia Hufton will always be remembered and missed by anyone who had the blessed opportunity to know her. She was a loving wife and mother, a devoted midwife of 32 years, an awesome friend, a servant in Christ—I could go on and on, and it still would not perfectly describe her.
Prayer In Action
I wanted to give an update on Meriam Ibrahim. I have been following her story since I heard it. I do have good news, but she and her family still need prayers. Read More...

Live a Life of Peace
Why do people end friendships because one person goes to another church organization? Why is it so hard even among Christians to get along? Don’t we realize that a house divided cannot stand? Read More...
If We Are The Body
One major point I want to get out first before I discuss unity in God’s ecclesia, is that I am not advocating one super mega 501c3 organization. I actually like the fact that groups are smaller, and there is a lot more diversity. In fact, diversity makes us more like a body. Read More...
Public Bible Study
June 15 was Trinity Sunday. Trinity Sunday is celebrated in all the Western liturgical churches to celebrate “The Most Holy Trinity”. The Trinity is a confusing doctrine that no one understands and no one can explain. Yet, it is deemed essential to salvation by Catholics and Protestants alike. The Trinity is the fundamental doctrine of Christianity. In fact, this single doctrine defines who is a Christian and who is a heretic.
Let His Light Shine
Jesus tells us that He is “the light of the world” and when we choose to walk with Him “we shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life” (John 8:12). We are to be light bearers, so we need to ignite the light inside of us. Read More...
Life Is Too Short To Not Say I Love You
I am sure that all of us have had to face a loss of someone we have loved, and if you haven’t, then you are very blessed. This week for me, has been a reminder of how short life is. Read More...
