Givers and Takers
One thing I find so refreshing as I study (not casually read) the Scriptures especially the Gospels (John is my favorite) is that the ministry of Jesus was revolutionary and hard to handle by those who were a part of the established religious sects. Jesus’ ministry...
Keep the Feast with Sincerity
There is a feast, a love feast we must keep before God and man. Everything we do as Christians must be done in love not a soft, spongy love, but a strong developing love that forces change in our lives. Now please let me stop here and say from the start I do not...
To the Very End

What We Leave Behind

Please keep Pastor Tek, Good News FM 105.1, and the good folks of Nepal in your prayers.
