Christianity is more than going through the motions. To be a faithful child of God, we must train our hearts to delight in his will.
Rachel’s Tears
Rachel, the wife of Jacob, died in connection with the birth of her child, Benjamin. Centuries later the apostle Matthew refers to Rachel as “weeping for her children.” This was in connection with Herod’s murder of the male babies in the region of Bethlehem. What was the connection?

A Problem No Skeptic Can Explain
The writers of the gospel testify with their lives to the accuracy and inspiration of the Bible.

What About that Two-Stage Miracle?
