Is Your Heavenly Account Bankrupt?

If you could, face to face, ask Jesus a question what that question be? In this podcast we talk about the encounter between a man who gets to do that very thing. And you know what his question was, "What must I do to inherit eternal life?"

From the east, the sun began warming the morning air's coolness in the holiest location in Israel, the Temple.

Is it better to “shrewdly” squander someone’s wealth or be a “sons of light?”

The Invisible Man! The healing of the man with Dropsy and the Hebrew Concept of Hachnassat Orchim

In the last recorded healing done by Jesus on the Sabbath it seems the man who was healed is invisible to those who were present.

The tradition of inviting travelers to a meal, known as "Hachnassat Orchim," is an important part of Hebrew life. However, like all things, did the people in this story forget what it was really about and do all of us actually do the very same thing?Join u...
