 The monthly feature articles will focus on the nature and character of God and our relationship to Him, practical life application of biblical principles, personal testimonies, Christian book reviews and a weekly Bible study.
What makes a person great? Is it the number of championship rings he wears on his hand? How fast you rise your career? The amount of money in one’s bank account? The size of your home? How many people you have conquered professionally or sexually? In this media-crazed, modern culture of ours, success is increasingly defined by the superficial, temporal, and the trivial. When we die, all this goes by the wayside. The popular bumper sticker of whoever has the most toys in the end "wins" is so wrong. Whoever has the most toys in the end still dies is so much more accurate.
Our world is so consumer driven, that are hearts are being consumed by the devil. Satin is winning this spiritual war in America. It is time for us to battle back. We need to plan, prepare and grow. If you looked at the things you did today , what are the things that you are doing preparing you for eternity in heaven? Are you doing things of significance? Are you serving others and God or to busy serving yourself? So really, who do you serve?
Sometimes in life we need to prepare and plan. I hope this site provides you with some of the tools that helped me grow and closer to God and make a difference in the world you live in. Jesus dies for you and he has a big plan for your life, but it is up to you seek him, and grow closer! Choose to serve God and stop worshiping the God of consumption!
Your brother in Christ, John Bissman

I have found that God gifts people in different ways. Joel has the gift of encouragement. In a culture that tears us down, Joel uses his gift to build us back up. He provides hope and sound Biblical words to encourage. some people say that Joel preaches a prosperity gospel. Maybe he does, maybe he doesn't but I have found that God uses his words to grow me closer to him

The Way of the Wild Heart: A Map for the Masculine Journey
Here it is, a great fathers day gift.
John Eldredge writes his follow-up volume to Wild at Heart. He begins with the observation that "God is a God of process," then identifies six stages through which men pass in their life journeys: boyhood, cowboy, warrior, lover, king and sage. Eldredge describes typical behaviors, actions, attitudes that occur in each stage, and illustrates them with examples primarily from the Bible but also from secular biographies, popular films and legends. John Eldredge initiates men into a new understanding and ownership of their manhood and equips them to effectively lead their sons to manhood. The Way of the Wild Heart: A Map for the Masculine Journey is a must read for dads!

Charles Stanley adds to his impressive legacy with a year's worth of devotionals drawn from his previous writings including best-sellers Success God's Way, Seeking His Face, and Enter His Gates. This best-selling devotional is loaded with life-changing thoughts and beautiful four-color illustrations. Divided into twelve months but not dated for a specific year. A great way to start the day
