He Is Our Song!

Posted on January 30, 2019 by Pete

A Willing Heart

Posted on February 14, 2018 by Pete

I’m a sucker for happy endings. Maybe that’s why I get all squishy inside as I read the final chapters of Exodus. I know, I know . . . the end of the book isn’t the end of the journey. … Continue reading →

Going With Us

Posted on February 12, 2018 by Pete

For Moses it was the ultimate litmus test that he and his people had found favor in the sight of God. Beyond their deliverance from bondage; greater than escaping their enemies by walking through a parted sea; more indicative than … Continue reading →

A Good Problem To Have

Posted on February 9, 2016 by Pete

Posted on February 5, 2016 by Pete
