A legacy of faith at our fingertips
You never know what you’re going to find at a library sale. Hidden amongst the piles of self-help books, DIY manuals, and the worst kids books ever published, my wife made an amazing discovery: a 107-year-old copy of Difficulties In The Bible by R.A.

And then, finally, to have heard him say, "Here is the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!" (John 1:29 CSB) "Here is the Lamb of God," or as some translations say, "Behold the Lamb of God" (ESV). This was an ... [Reading More]

God’s Word tells us to hide Scripture in our hearts (Psalm 119) and to teach it to our children constantly (Deuteronomy 6). As parents, nothing is really more valuable for us to do for our kids, is there? Introducing them to God, the creator; His Son, their Savior; and the truth, His Word, is an honorable job. What’s more exciting than seeing your children grasp the love that God has for all of us? Now, admittedly, this hefty task can be daunting. Here are three things to consider when choosing ...
