As we come to the end of 2021, many of us are in the last week of our Bible reading plans and are looking for our plan for next year. Maybe, we've never done a daily Bible reading plan, or at least never completed one. I want to share with you a few reasons why … Continue reading Daily Bible Reading 2022

Book Review: Trends Pointing Toward a New Apostasy
"Trends Pointing to a New Apostasy" by Ron Halbrook. Available at CEI Bookstore for $5.99. "Trends Pointing to a New Apostasy" was originally a sermon preached by brother Halbrook in 1989 that sounded a warning call to all who listened and later read it; brethren, we are drifting. Even though this sermon was preached six … Continue reading Book Review: Trends Pointing Toward a New Apostasy
The Sin of Lying
Today's post is an article written by Dee Bowman. I honestly believe that the most commonly committed sin is that of lying. Which of us has not, at one time or the other, told an outright lie? Oh, we dress it up and say it was simply “an untruth,” but when the finish with which … Continue reading The Sin of Lying
A Prince Has Fallen
This past week Dee Bowman, faithful Christian and preacher, left this life and went on to his reward. While I never had the privilege of meeting him, I have benefited greatly from his sermons and articles. For today's post I want to share one of Dee's articles for your reading.
Back to School
It is hard to believe that it is time for school to be back in session. Starting a new school year is always an exciting time with new teachers, new supplies, and seeing friends again. While I am sure, every student here is fully equipped with all the paper, pencils, and boxes of Kleenexes to … Continue reading Back to School

Something that grabbed my attention in the reading was how quickly the world falls apart once sin enters the picture. The rapid succession of bad to worse in Genesis 1-11 has led many Bible students to call this … Continue reading The Avalanche of Sin

Fear drives up ratings and profits. It does so because once we get that … Continue reading Living in Fear
Bearing Fruit
We read in Mark 11:11-21 of Jesus cursing a fruitless fig tree, cleansing the Temple for a second time, and the fig tree dying from the cruse. This fig tree represented Israel during Jesus’ day and time, fruitless. The lesson of the fig tree is clear, that those who do not bear fruit will face … Continue reading Bearing Fruit
Why Study the Old Testament?
I recently went to go see Infinity War and while I have been trying to keep up with all of the Marvel movies that have come out I have not seen them all. So, while I did enjoy the film there were inevitably some characters and plot references that I did not recognize or understand. … Continue reading Why Study the Old Testament?
The More You Know!
NBC use to have a public announcement service where some influential person would give a short announcement informing those watching about some vital piece of information (Drugs, Child Abuse, Hunger, etc.). And at the end of the PSA a shooting star would shoot across the TV with the words "The More You Know." The idea … Continue reading The More You Know!
