What a Savior!
What a Savior! By Billy Graham • April 5, 2017 It was written long ago that the Messiah must suffer and die and rise again from the dead on the third day. —Luke 24:46 (TLB) What was the power and influence that changed the cross from an instrument of bloody torture into the most glorious and beloved of all symbols? The Romans crucified thousands of people before and after Calvary. If Jesus had not risen from the dead, no right-minded…
Verse of the Day – Romans 12:1 KJV
¹ I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
Die to Yourself
Die to Yourself By Billy Graham • April 4, 2017 The Lord is close to those whose hearts are breaking; he rescues those who are humbly sorry for their sins. —Psalm 34:18 (TLB) In God’s economy, you must go down into the valley of grief before you can scale the heights of spiritual glory. You must become tired and weary of living alone before you seek and find the fellowship of Christ. You must come to the end of self…
Verse of the Day – Galatians 1:10 KJV
¹º For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

Not Just a Man
Not Just a Man By Billy Graham • April 3, 2017 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. —Colossians 1:17 Napoleon was right when he said, “I know men, and I tell you, Jesus is more than a man. Comparison is impossible between Him and any other human being who ever lived, because He was the Son of God.” Emerson was right when he replied to those who asked him why he did not include…
Verse of the Day – Psalms 95:1-2 KJV
¹O come, let us sing unto the Lord: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. ²Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.
Back in My Place!
Back in My Place! And I even got to make the eggs! Last night Cindy and I returned home from a twenty-six day trip to the Orient. To say I was glad to be home again is an understatement. I am so grateful. And I am so blessed! I couldn’t have felt more happy and secure in God’s love than when I awoke early this morning and attended the Men’s Breakfast at Church. It was so good to see the…
The Journey – Part I
The Journey On Sunday, we left Lenoir City on our way to the Orient. A place I never thought I would visit. In fact, based on my observations that they (Asians) have no concept of personal space I emphatically swore I never would make this trip. But here I am. I should know by now, there is no such thing as never. Our journey out of Knoxville to San Diego was uneventful, usually a good thing when traveling. Two things…
The Painting
Tomorrow we take flight and head to Japan. But today I am at my sister’s home in San Diego, CA. She has lived in this home for 30 years now. And in that time I have visited many times. Her home is beautiful. Like something you would see in a magazine. It struck me this morning that this home is her life’s painting. Over the years each room’s decorations have changed subtly, a minor touch here, a new painting there.…
It’s Movie Time!
It’s Movie Time! Cindy and I went and saw a movie the other night that Hobert had first told me about. Called ‘Is Genesis History?’ the movie scientifically dismantles today’s theories of evolution and replaces it with factual evidence pointing to the divine creation of the universe as we know it today. The great flood told of in the story of Noah actually happened! You can see the evidence of it today all around us. Just like in Galileo’s &…
Letters from Roscoe
Howdy everyone, I told Brother Eddie tonight that I had published Letters from Roscoe on Amazon.com and he very quickly (Good PR Man!) told everyone else that the book was available on Amazon.com if someone wanted a copy. What he didn’t say is that any profit that comes from this book will go to the Church. After all, God is really the author not me. Anyway, if you are interested in the book, it is available on Kindle for $3.99 at…
