Who is God? What is his name and identity? World religions attempt to answer these questions, but all religions but one fail to. Christianity is the only one which gets is right, but it is the only religion from God himself. He reveals himself as the one true God, who is Triune (three persons of…

We would all like to have a friend in a high place. It called having connections with people who have connections. It doesn’t hurt. When we believe in Jesus as God’s Son, risen from the dead, and ascended to heaven, we have a friend in the very highest place: on the Throne of God. This is…

There is great power in true friendship. The power is in the bond that friends share in personal commitment to one another. If you find yourself in such a relationship, you are blessed.
