We want to show visitors our appreciation by creating a comfortable, clean space for them to freshen up. We are designing our bathrooms with high quality materials that will hold up for years to come!

Keeping Your Faith During The Covid-19 Pandemic

Even when my employer started talking about work from home options and my husband came home from the store talking about people loading carts with water and toilet paper, it still felt distant. The reality hit me a few days later when I went to Walmart for cat food and witnessed the distribution of toilet paper to a long line of customers under the watchful eye a local police officer.  I thought, “Wow.  This is really happening.”

Don’t Throw Water On That Fire!

Having pastored for more than forty years I have seen many ways that people put a wet blanket on the fire of the Spirit. The first and most obvious is unbelief which shows up in many ways; such as skepticism, stubbornness, pride, and sin in the life through unrepentance, etc.

Beans And Taters

Think about it, how many mealtimes do you remember that you had to miss because there was no food in the house? I can’t remember any. Our meals might have consisted of beans and taters but we still had food on the table.

Are You Following Another Rut?

My dad used to tell me stories of when he was young. He told me, when he would drive in the roads (they were not paved highways) that ruts would be so deep that he would take his hands off of the steering wheel and the old car would drive itself down the way in the ruts. It must have been the earliest version of the self-driving car. But I digress—again.

Lessons I’ve Learned in This Quarantine Time

It is hard for us, or at least me, to realize that I cannot fix everything, or that I am not in charge the circumstances that surround me. The only one that I can control is me. Something good is going to come out of this and God will be glorified through it. That is a choice we make when we walk by faith in the difficulties we must face.

The Meaning of the Cross

Most of us see the cross as an item that represents the symbol for being a Christian. We wear them around our necks and hang them on our walls. Sometimes we put them up in our yards for decoration. I believe the cross should be so much more than jewelry or a piece of art for our walls and yard…

¿Quién me tocó?

Jesús se volvió y vio a la mujer y le dijo: “Ten ánimo, hija; tu fe te ha salvado”. Y la mujer fue salva desde aquella hora.  Que cosa tan poderosa es la fe en Cristo; la tienes, úsala.

Serving More Than One God

Let’s face it. We all have things that we’re passionate about or really like to do. I like to fish from my kayak. I like to camp in luxury (glamping). I like to work on my house. I like technology. Most of all, I like making money so I can do all these things. Do I find myself idolizing this stuff? More often than I like to admit. Am I letting the things I like to do push me to an eternity in darkness? I pray that I don’t.

Reality Check

If you stop and catch some of the things that fly through your head, are you inherently hating on others and being judgmental? Are your eyes wandering where they shouldn’t? Or maybe, and this is a hard one, are you cursing people that you don’t even know (or maybe do know) that are driving too slow in front of you? What do you think is influencing this attitude of rage and discontentment?

Walking In Integrity

Dealing with trials in our lives can be tough. Once in a while I’ll say to myself, “God, will this ever end?” When issues arise and I don’t think I’ll ever see a positive outcome, I turn to the Bible. I search to find examples similar to the drama I am experiencing, and learn how our ancestors dealt with particular issues in their lives, and how God dealt with those individuals.
