A Call to Prayer for the Churches in Crisis
I found this card in a used book the other day. Since November 8 is this year’s International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church, I thought I would share this to prepare us.

Temp #43: Holy Spirit Take A Break
Did you ever wish the Holy Spirit would just take a break? Tonight at work was one of those days. One of the other drivers got in my way while I was pulling an order, blocking my way so he could get his. It really made me mad (or aggravated, I seldom get mad). I was forced to leave the area before I said something I would regret. Luckily I needed to change the battery in my lift. I really wanted Read Full Story
On God's Time
In an article way back I wrote on the subject of being called to the workplace I stated that I wouldn't write about the basic things of the Christian life. I had stated that I felt these things were sure to be part of a believer's character and not something we should work on.But on further examination I have seen a lack of these qualities in many true believers including myself.

Just reading my bible at break time and Read Full Story

Atheist No More By Marijo Phelps
Through a series of events that God had put together, this atheist of nine years found herself praying. I was praying to the god I wasn't sure was really there. Life was a mess. I was hurting those I professed to love. I was drinking too much and making terrible choices. My younger sister has changed tremendously. I had to ask questions. I scoffed and poked fun at her but underneath that Read Full Story

"You should take the accountant temp job." Lisa stated firmly. Josh hadn't held down a steady job in over a year. Right now he was taking some work as a fill in UPS driver getting paid about eight dollars an hour. Lisa's full time job as a church secretary garnered a paltry nine dollars an hour. They had three young children at home and one on the way, and no insurance among the 5.5 of Read Full Story
What is a Marketplace Christian?

What is the difference?To some in the Christian circle of followers the MC is a person who starts a business and then tries to bring his or her faith into that area of life.
