Why did the ancient Israelites celebrate a Seventh Day Sabbath? Who changed the Sabbath Day from Saturday to Sunday? Jesus claimed to be the ...

Two ancient adversaries meet for a cup of coffee in a little pie shop outside of Tupelo, Mississippi.

What would you do if you went for a cup of coffee and a slice of pie and were drawn into a conversation between God and Satan? If you could ask the Almighty any question, what would you...

From award-winning Christian fiction author Laurie Larsen comes something a little different ... A life-long Christian, I've read the Bible several times. But this time was different. My goal wasn't to just journey from cover to cover and consider it done. You know, cross it off my list and move on. I wanted to actually learn something that would impact my life.
