Being a radio-television technician in the 1970’s and 80’s and an antenna installer for small villages in the province of Québec, Canada, there was never a lack of work for my father. On occasion, he would also travel Highway 20 from Montmagny to Québec City to purchase materials. On one such trip, he picked up […]
Paradise is lost beyond recovery as far as man is concerned. There will be weeds in your garden, pain in your body, and distress in your mind until the Lord returns, not all the time and in the same measure perhaps; but frustrating conditions will come and go in everyone’s experience, those who have faith […]

We all like to get invitations. There’s something exciting about opening them. Sure, occasionally we get an invitation we’d rather avoid, but how much worse it would be to get no invitations at all because getting an invitation means that someone values us. 2000 years ago, the greatest Someone in the universe stepped out of […]
God’s Awe-Inspiring Invitation To Fulfillment Since Adam’s fall (Gen. 3:8), mankind has instinctively hidden from its Creator. Religion, irreligion, philosophy, and science are all employed by people in futile attempts to guard against an intimate encounter with the living God.

There are a number of infamous characters that show up in the pages of Scripture. Herod the Great thought nothing of killing Bethlehem’s infant sons in an effort to save his throne. Goliath blasphemed the Lord and taunted Israel before he met a well-placed stone with his forehead. The hands of Ahab and Jezebel were […]
