The Virtuous Woman: Proverbs 31
The virtuous woman of Proverbs 31:10-31. We love her. We hate her. We all wish we could be her. We feel condemned and ashamed because we aren’t her. And most of us don’t understand her at all. For many of us, this passage serves as a high bar of womanhood we can never achieve. WeContinue reading “The Virtuous Woman: Proverbs 31”

He also provided a means of escape. No plague in the Bible lacked a way out. The devil comes toContinue reading “The Plagues of Egypt”
Dry Bones
The Lord sees things that we don’t see. I know that seems pretty elementary. I mean we all know this, but we don’t all believe it. We say things like “God’s ways are not our ways” or “God sees things we can not see,” but inside we still want to be able to understand God.Continue reading “Dry Bones”
Going Deeper With God

When we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we are made new. We’re supposed to consider ourselves dead to sin andContinue reading “Going Deeper With God”
