By Douglas Knox “We’re going to storm the gates of Heaven until God brings healing. He’s going to give us our miracle.” The faith is sincere. The expectation is real. And sometimes God honors our prayers for healing. Sometimes, but not always. Instead of healing, God may choose to put us through grief. When loved ones die, even good Christians struggle to fathom the unfathomable. We count the months by the minute, waiting for the...
Read MoreBy Bill Banks Many today have been taught that the only way to receive healing is to have personal faith for your specific healing. We must, it is implied, somehow “work up” or develop enough personal faith in order to be healed, and then we will experience God’s move on our body. The implication is that our personal faith is the determining factor, and it will in some manner acquire our healing. There is good news, however,...

It seemed as though God chose her to be that special, spirit-filled woman for the world to love, to those that knew her. I remember being burned; my grandmother called me over to her, and she began to mumble some words to herself. A few minutes later,...
Read MoreBy Stephen Arterburn & Jack Felton Most of us began our journey into faith with trusting hearts. Yet incidents of abuse, media accounts of perverted religion, personal disappointments, loss, betrayal and even unrealistic expectations of God can cause us to develop a warped or damaged view of faith. Too often, what began as an authentic relationship with God deteriorates into a defective faith with an incomplete or poisoned view...
Read MoreBy Francis Chan POWERFUL When is the last time someone used that word to describe you? It doesn’t make sense that Almighty God would have children characterized by fear and insecurity. He put His Spirit in us so we could be known for our power (Acts 1:8; 2 Timothy 1:7). Sadly, most believers and churches are known for talent or intellect rather than supernatural power. What’s worse is that we’re okay with it....

Read MoreBy Jack Graham Leading Baptist Pastor Teaches the Truth about Angels Popular myths about angels are all around us. Do people become angels when they die? Are they always hovering nearby, on guard to protect us from danger? Can we talk to them?

Read MoreBy David Albert Jones The Book of Genesis depicts them as doing strange things–mating with the daughters of men to spawn giants, for example, and wrestling with Jacob for no apparent reason. In It’s a Wonderful Life, Frank Capra spun a tale of one as a bumbling helper of humans; in Wings of Desire, Wim Wenders told of one who wished to be human. They are angels, of course, and they have fascinated us since recorded history...
