Tuesday, November 2, 2004 Brenda Wood

The Spring Within

Saturday, October 30, 2004 Ivie Bozeman

In a state park where we once camped, there were many springs, bubbling out of the mountainside. This water was pristine, cool, and refreshing. If we had no containers, we cupped our hands together and drank from them. This spring … Read more

The Still Small Voice

Friday, October 29, 2004 Brenda Wood

Worldwide Ministry

Pray
Friday, November 6, 2026 – In Canada — Sikhs — Praise the Lord for the Sikh boys and girls that were reached with the gospel at sports camps this summer. Some have heard of Jesus for the first time. There could be pushback, from their Sikh community, for accepting Jesus means not maintaining their culture. Pray for follow-up, that whole Sikh families get saved and are well integrated into the church.

Today's Thought

For God to explain a trial would be to destroy its purpose, calling forth simple faith and implicit obedience. – Alfred Edersheim6
