Beyond Our Imagination

Maybe the thought of going to heaven one day sounds a bit uninteresting? If so, have a read below at what awaits those who know Christ as their Saviour. Turning Point-Dr. David Jeremiah - Wednesday, October 28, 2020 - Beyond Our Imagination But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” 1 Corinthians 2:9 You watched videos; you read tourist guides; you talked with neighbors who had be...

Important Things

It’s strange how we make time for other “important” things but leave the most important thing undone. Dr. David Jeremiah writes: After an extended workout at the gym, or a long bike ride on a scorching day, a refreshing sports drink can restore the body’s electrolytes.

And after a prolonged time of trouble leading to a diminished faith, the Word of God can restore the soul.  (Turnin...

Philippians 4:12 READ PHILIPPIANS 4:10–19 Sometimes I suspect my cat Heathcliff suffers from a bad case of FOMO (fear of missing out).
