When Mercy Grew on Trees
Family trees can be interesting, and revealing. And because of His mixed up, messed up family tree, and the tree that it ultimately led Him to, there is hope aplenty for yours.

The End of Perfection?
A new view of the Sermon on the Mount from the pinnacle of a beatitude.

Solid Gold!
Critical thinking is a necessary survival skill today. So how does one prevent the skill of critiquing from crossing over into the sin of criticizing? And why did this matter so much to Jesus?A new view of the Sermon on the Mount from the pinnacle of a beatitude.

The Two Word Prayer
It's heard mostly on the lips of the desperate and despairing. Too bad. Because while it's only sinners who plead for mercy, it's only for sinners that mercy pleads. A two word prayer that mercy can't resist. A new view of the Sermon on the Mount from the pinnacle of a beatitude.

How to Put a Smile on God's Face
Two powerful stories from the life of Jesus, and a personal testimony, produce a one-line message guaranteed to put a smile on God's face. It's heard mostly on the lips of the desperate and despairing. Too bad. Because while it's only sinners who plead for mercy, it's only for sinners that mercy pleads. A two word prayer that mercy can't resist.

When the Debt Ratio Is 600,000:1
It's hard to imagine such a debt - 600,000 times greater than you could earn in your lifetime. But there's good news for such a debtor as you or me. And it could take us into some surprising places.
03/31/2007
Something More Important Than Truth
Could there be anything more important than truth? If Jesus has the last word the answer must be Yes!
04/07/2007
A Severe Mercy
What does death taste like? Hemingway ventured a guess. In the language of the great story, the Bible describes it in vivid detail. There's no mistaking it now. It's a taste of severe mercy.
04/28/2007
Mercy Comes, Mercy Goes
Ever heard of geometric progression? How about the Great Commission? Could it be that geometric progression hold's the key to the fulfillment of the Great Commission? It's mercy on the run again. This time with a surprising twist.

Women’s Ministries (NAD)

This upcoming Sabbath is Women’s Ministries Emphasis Day—a special Sabbath to celebrate the meaningful contributions women make in their homes, churches, and communities. Every day, women step up to minister in ways that truly matter, following the words of Jesus in John 13:34 to “Love one another as I have loved you.”

They minister across generations with compassion and purpose—praying, mentoring, discipling, and comforting those walking through life’s hardest seasons. Whether organizing health fairs, abuse prevention workshops, or teen mentorship programs, women create opportunities for healing and growth, as well as hosting gatherings that foster joy, laughter, and fellowship. Women deliver meals, provide household goods for struggling families, and support cancer patients.

They lead evangelistic efforts, facilitate Bible studies, and help other women grow spiritually. In both quiet moments and public spaces, women are the hands and feet of Jesus—living out His love in practical, powerful ways.

Women’s Ministries empowers women to grow as leaders by offering training, resources, and spiritual development to help them serve more effectively. 

Recognizing that education is a key part of leadership, Women’s Ministries supports collegiate women attending Adventist universities through the Women’s Ministries Scholarship Fund. 

When you give to Women’s Ministries, you’re investing in lives transformed by women committed to loving like Jesus. Join us in empowering women to serve, grow, and lead in the name of Christ.
