A Hurting Marriage Begins to Heal from the Wounds of War
He’d been good with a gun since he started hunting at age 8 and was a hard-driving athlete during high school, so for Nick Hine the rigorous life of a Marine Corps scout sniper seemed like a good fit. He wasn’t interested in college just yet, so when he was 18 years old he joined…

Thanking God for a New Home at Christmas
It’s almost unbelievable that Earnestine Reese survived the EF4 tornado that barreled through Lee County, Alabama, on March 3, 2019—killing 23 people, leveling neighborhoods, and displacing families. As the storm hit, she huddled in her bathroom with her daughter, son-in-law, and grandson, praying for God’s protection. The twister tore directly over their house, ripping off…

Enviando obreros a su cosecha
In Luke 16:10, Jesus made a profound statement to His disciples, “He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much.” When He calls His followers to action, the size or significance of the assignment shouldn’t be our main consideration.
