The Chastening of the Lord
As Christian’s we really don’t enjoy the idea of chastisement. If I were to ask someone if they want to be more like Christ, it is an easy yes.

Perhaps we aren’t as good of Christians as we think ourselves to be.

Christians and Santa Claus
Many believers could be greatly offended that we would even deal with the issue of Santa Claus. “It is innocent”, you can hear them say. Yet a careful look into the scriptures would deny that this lie is anywhere near innocent.
Conquering Stress God's Way
