10 Places You Should See (in Israel) Before You Die
We asked Christian leaders who visit Israel regularly to tell us their most memorable moments in the Holy Land. Nearly everyone has a special place he would like to visit during his lifetime. For many people, that place is Israel. The mere mention of the country’s name evokes a wide range of emotions, one of

Remembering the Latter Rain
Moves of the Spirit of God are always precipitated by spiritual hunger and repentance. Revival restores to us the knowledge and the experience of the gospel’s truth.

Overcoming the Shame of Abortion

Don’t Quit Now
At first glance, evangelist Olivia Mitchell’s life didn’t appear to be promising. She was born to an interracial couple in the 1950s and subjected to ridicule, neglect and repeated acts of abuse.

When A Thirsty Soul Found Love
Like so many women today, the woman at the well sought to fulfill her longing for love and validation illegitimately. What Jesus did for her is what He does for a woman now: love her completely and assign the highest value to her life. Christ’s gift to her and to us is living water that

Who Are We to Pass Judgment?
Much torment comes to people’s lives because of judgmental attitudes, criticism and suspicion. Multitudes of relationships are destroyed by these enemies.

Truly Listening to God
There are two reasons why God has difficulty in getting us to listen to Him. Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening. —1 Samuel 3:9 What can be more important than correct listening?

Changing Relationships
Many women wrestle with changing roles, changing times and changing relationships. Much has been said about the changes in life but not nearly enough in regard to the maternal heart that has unfortunately allowed itself to be defined purely by its relationship with children.
