A Biblical View of Heroes of the Faith
There is a sense in which the Bible points us to individuals who were examples of Christlikeness, but where does encouragement end and hero worship begin?
Moth, Rust, and a Mouse-Nibbled Blanket
Have you ever noticed that our treasures have a habit of being breakable or easily lost? Mathew 6:19-23 helps us understand the nature of treasures, and how they impact our hearts.
