Fallow Ground
From my Worthy Brief daily devotion: Hosea 10:12 Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till he come and rain righteousness upon you. Revival is that sovereign work of God in which He visits His own people, restoring and releasing them … Continue reading Fallow Ground
Music: God’s Gift
Music fills a little part of that hole in us where God belongs. It brings comfort, happiness, and gives an emotional expression to living, to worship, to conviction, to repentance.

Easy pickings for those who would use such lists for nefarious purposes. I'm hesitant to subscribe to sites even when offered … Continue reading Afraid or Dangerous?

Religious Liberty in Jeopardy
If you receive Tony Perkins' Washington Update you've read about this. Here is a synopsis of his November 15 report : If the House Democrats get their way, the Religious Freedom Restoration Act will be nullified, and religious liberty as we know it will disappear.
