Wednesday's Two-Minute Takeaway - Confrontation
by Steven Pawley on March 26th, 2025
From Genesis 31:36-43 Your best defense in any verbal confrontation is a clear conscience. Laban has confronted and accused Jacob falsely. It's time to have that difficult conversation.

by Steven Pawley on March 17th, 2025
All of us have likely experienced that feeling or painful realization that we’ve been taken advantage of. Someone isn’t what they said they were, or we’ve fallen prey to fraud. Sometimes it’s worse. We’ve given years and our best effort to someone who does not appreciate us and has only been using us all along. They’re selfish and we’re their latest victim. Now what?  Read More

Here Is Proof of God's Existence No One Looks
by Steven Pawley on March 9th, 2025

Where Do I Belong?
by Steven Pawley on January 26th, 2025
Circumstances can be better guides to God’s will than blessings. Even though you’re blessed, when things are getting stirred up, stopped up, or full of strife, get ready God might be making a move. Difficulties that come out of nowhere aren’t designed to cause you to despise God, they’re designed to give you direction from God. Pay attention to more than your blessings (Gen 26:12-33).  Read More
Driven to The Wrong Relief
by Steven Pawley on January 19th, 2025
Laugh at me while I laugh at myself In ways, I’m just like my parents. I can be a bit impulsive – you know, it seems like the natural thing to do, so I do it. That’s not always a good reason or plan. But when we face a basic need going unmet, we, like Abraham’s son Isaac, can be driven to the wrong source for relief. When that happens, think again. God may have other plans...  Read More
