Rise Above Your Past
Richard Roberts – Third of six parts Two: You must rise above your past. Sometimes that means rising above the past in your family. Look at Joseph’s family. They were liars, cheaters and tricksters.

You Can Never Tell
From the archives of Evelyn Roberts When Richard was a boy — about six or seven years old — we lived out in the country on a ranch we called Robin Hood Farm. Many a morning, I’d get Richard ready for school and watch him walk up the road to catch the bus. I’d dress […]

I once was preaching in Jamaica in a great crusade, and on […]
Use What You’ve Been Given
Lindsay Roberts I love music, and I’ve always loved to sing. But anyone who has ever heard me sing knows that I am not a singer. Even my children know that their mother can’t sing. Years ago, when Jordan was having a nightmare one night, I went into her room. I thought, poor little thing…if […]
You Can Do the Same
