Praise God together today
When you go to church today, and they sing a hymn or chorus or other type of song, think of the words in this Psalm, and sing out loud. Sing together with those around you, singing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs, and, as Thomas Ken said so very long ago, “Praise God from whom all…
Come, worship with us
If you’re up north, in Michigan, near Cheboygan, we’d love to have you come worship with us Sunday morning. Here’s some of what’s going on tomorrow (August 9, 2015).

God is not dead!
Need a good Word to start today? How about this from Psalm 18:46? “The LORD lives! Praise to my Rock! May the God of my salvation be exalted.” NLT Because God lives, He is both a Rock and a Savior. As a Rock, He is unchanging and impregnable. As a Savior, He offers forgiveness and…
