A Place Called “There”
Lindsay Roberts – Second of two parts In Genesis 12:1-2 NKJV, the Lord told Abraham, “Get out of your country, from your family and from your father’s house, to a land that I will show you.” God didn’t tell Abraham what his destination was until he and his family arrived there in the land of […]
It Has All Been Laid Out For Us
Lindsay Roberts One morning, my daughter had laid out my clothes for me to put on. I started to laugh, and as I looked at the clothes, she said, “I laid it all out for you.” At that instant, in my mind, I saw a picture of Jesus standing there, and He said, “So did […]
‘It Is Well…’
From the archives of Oral Roberts Horatio Spafford was a prominent lawyer in Chicago when he lost everything he had in the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. Two years later, he put his wife and three girls on a ship to Europe while he stayed behind to try to recover some of his fortune. About […]
Everybody’s Welcome
Richard Roberts Are you part of the true Christian Church today? I believe the true Christian Church reaches out to the broken, the beaten, the battered, the bruised, the lonely, the down-and-out, and the oppressed, with a helping hand, and with a living Word.

Lindsay Roberts The best time to give thanks to God may be in the tough times. Did you know that the U.S. holiday of Thanksgiving was founded in the midst of war? In 1863, at the height of the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln made a decree that America would celebrate “a day of Thanksgiving […]

Make the Right Choices!
Lindsay Roberts Can you honestly say, “I am making good choices in my life?” Are you making good choices in what you think, in what you believe, in your giving and receiving, in your faith, and in your joy? Have you made the choice to serve God with your whole heart, your soul, your mind, […]
The Right Question
Richard Roberts There’s an old saying: “In order to get the right answer, you must first ask the right question.” And certainly, it’s important to ask the right questions concerning our relationship with God. Very often we ask questions that we don’t have any answers to — questions such as, “Why me?” Or, “Where was […]
Ask God What to Do
From the archives of Evelyn Roberts – Second of two parts David had lost everything to Ziklag—his home, his family, his reputation among his men. Only one thing remained: His relationship with the Lord. And David chose to encourage himself in the Lord. What does that word encourage mean? It literally means “To have courage […]
Encourage Yourself in the Lord
From the archives of Evelyn Roberts – First of two parts Have you ever lost something that mattered to you as much as life itself? I’ve felt that way several times in my life. In 1 Samuel 30, we read about one very powerful incident when David felt that way, too. David was given refuge […]
