    Life Talk Devotion 02/22/2024 Right at the beginning of the Old Testament book of Exodus, we get introduced to a guy named Moses.  Although the introduction to Moses is interesting, the introduction of Moses to God in chapter 3 is stunning. You know the story, how a burning bush catches Moses’ attention, and his life is forever changed:…

    Life Talk Devotion 12/23/2023  The first Christmas was dramatically announced by a chorus of heavenly hosts praising God and saying:“Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!” (Luke 2:14). The message of great joy heralded the birth of the Savior, who is Christ the King. However, it was not a grand proclamation to the…

  • An Unwavering Truth

    Life Talk Devotion 11/23/2023 The media has been bombarding us with not so subtle alarmist cries that life as we know it needs to be reset or drastically altered. Whether its climate change, socio-economic instabilities or geo-political saber rattling, a united heralding confronts us daily with the urgent call to usher in a new order…

  • Throne of Grace

    Life Talk Devotion 11/20/2023 In May of this year, the world was mesmerized by the pomp and pageantry of the coronation of Prince Charles as the new King of England.
