I experienced an epiphany driving through Nebraska last weekend.  After a Friday night concert in Broken Bow, NE, the next morning we were facing a four hour drive back to Omaha.  The clouds were low and threatening rain but it held.  The gray skies, my tired body, hundreds of train cars loaded with coal, acres and acres of farmland, and a sign here and there of population less than 100 put me in a sort of melancholy mood.  Even though I travel with my husband and best friend, Rod, (more…)

Hebrews chapters 6-8 use the term “better” or “more excellent” at least six times in discussing how much better the New Covenant with Jesus Christ is than the Old Covenant of the Law.  With all of its sacrifices, bulls, goats, lambs, grain, turtle doves, the Law could never make someone new or born again.  Jesus Christ, the perfect and final sacrifice, is the BETTER way that God provided for those who believe in His name.

Well folks, it is STILL SNOWING in the City!  Last night I shoveled about 8 inches, and today you cannot even tell! We are canceling all of Manhattan Grace Tabernacle’s events tonight (Friday, 2/26/10). Damaris and I are going to miss the fellowship!  Hope to see everyone on Sunday!

Sunday we have the exciting Bible Hour at 10, our Celebration Service at 11, and then we’re all coming back for the new drama, “Ready or Not!” at 4.  Don’t miss any of it, and bring someone, too!!

Listening to my current favorite podcast from Dr. Jeffrey Laborg, his closing point really struck me.  I played it for Dámaris who thought it was terrific, too.  After emailing it to several more family and friends with similar reactions, it seemed only right to let you hear it, too.

Ministry Spotlight is a program hosted by our dear friend, John Rivera on WMCA here in NYC.  John invited Dámaris to be on the program and it aired recently in the NYC metro area.  They had a great time together discussing the beginnings of ministry, family, motives and what lies ahead.  We trust that (more…)

Today is Valentine’s Day.  It is a day when people express their appreciation for spouses or fiancés.  I even remember grade school where we had to bring in Valentine’s Day cards for everyone in our class.  ”Be Mine,” the little heart-shaped mint would say.  Lots of flowers, chocolates and teddy bears are given and received in the name  of LOVE.

But the Greatest Love Story has nothing to do with chocolates or flowers.  Listen in to Dámaris as she teaches about God’s love, faith, and our response to the Gift of God’s Son, Jesus Christ, at Manhattan Grace Tabernacle.
