We need preaching, but what does that mean? Is preaching a bunch of opinions clothed in religious garb? Is it funny stories, life lessons, or yelling with scratchy pitches?

We know from the Scriptures what happens when a saved man dies, but what happens when an unbeliever leaves… Continue reading What Happens When a Person Dies Without Christ?
What Happens When a Christian Dies?
There is much grief in our world. Many of us carry around the anguish of having lost someone close to our hearts. There are questions that loom about death and what comes in the "after life."

They've placed workers to chase deer off an airport runway for $8 an hour, or pour thousands of cans of rancid beverage down a drain for $6 an hour.One of the most unusual placements came from a… Continue reading The Sunday School Worker
