My 24/7 God
Many people have the wish of living on earth when Jesus Christ was around performing miracles and preaching to large crowds. When someone asks, “If you could travel back to any point in time, where would you go?” many will respond with, “When Jesus was alive!” What these people do not realize is that Jesus […]
The Autobiography of Martha
When I think of the word, occupied, I envision a war scene—blackened fields bristling with the spears of an enemy. The glint of burnished helmets weakens the knees, and things get hairy when the horn is blown and ten thousand lowlifes contribute a guttural hip-hip.

The First Message on the Resurrection
Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus the Nazarene, a man shown by God to you to be approved by works of power and wonders and signs, which God did through Him in your midst, even as you yourselves know–this man, delivered up by the determined counsel and foreknowledge of God, you, through the hand […]
Prayer Ministry of the Church Recap
The winter break is always long and relaxing for UT students.

Companions to Bring Us to Jesus
We had our first Welcome Dinner Saturday, Aug. 20, on the UT campus! The event was buzzing with our returning students and new students who dropped in to grab a bite and had fellowship with us.

Something Green, Something New
Hosea 14:8 declares that God is like a “green fir tree” and “green” in Hebrews is analogous to “new.” Thus with God there is no oldness or staleness. He is always, fresh, new, and living like a green fir tree. When we enjoy the Lord Jesus, He infuses us with His new and living elements […]
