Big Rocks and Our Big God

Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the peoples, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength! Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name; bring an offering and come before him! Worship the LORD in the splendor of holiness; tremble before him, all the earth; yes, the world is established; it shall never be […]


Across Languages, Tribes, and Countries

Three years ago, Christophe traveled from the Central African Republic to attend a pastors’ conference in Cameroon where Dr. Dieudonné Tamfu, Director of the Bethlehem Seminary extension site, taught.

Having Joy in Making Ends Meet

Even in this most affluent nation on Earth, the average American will at some point experience “trouble” in making ends meet, many on a regular, even lifelong, basis. It’s estimated that 67%–78% of Americans live “paycheck-to-paycheck,” with little left over after covering their monthly expenses. My guess is that many receiving this letter have confronted, […]
