THE WORD FOR THIS WEEK IS: “Holy”. The thought for this week is: Holy, Holy God. When you were young, what were some of the issues of the day that prompted you to “rebel” against your parents or teachers in school? What punishments, if any, were handed out? In considering these, think about the issues now in your life that prompt you…

In the southern peninsula, homes were shredded by the 145-mile-per-hour winds and families throughout the country lost rooftops.

The Word for this week is: Truth The Thought for this week is: God is truth. God presented Himself to Moses (Exod. 34: 6) not only as one who tells the truth, but also to be Truth Himself. In a day when many believe that truth is relative and no one has the authority to tell others what is true, God proclaims…
The Word for the week is: Lovingkindness The Thought for the week is: God’s abundant lovingkindness endures forever.
