With the 50th anniversary of the Six-Day War approaching, Christian Broadcasting Network and Fathom Events bring to theaters the docudrama “In Our Hands: The Battle for Jerusalem” for a one-night theatrical screening nationwide Tuesday, May 23. It is the compelling story of heroism and victory by a small group of Israeli paratroopers who—at a heavy cost of lives—managed to take back Jerusalem’s Temple Mount, then to radio their commander the message that this strategic and symbolic piece of real estate was “in our hands.” “Most accounts of the Six-Day War are straight documentaries, and The Battle of Ammunition Hill is […]

National Women's Health Week

  May 14-20 celebrates National Women’s Health Week, a health initiative sponsored by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. This campaign correlates with Mother’s Day to remind us that women often put their own health on the back burner while multi-tasking and caring for those around them. Indeed, today’s woman is often working, raising a family, caring for aging parents, juggling household chores, church or social responsibilities, and eating on the run. Nutritional deficiencies, lack of exercise and the effect of stress on hormones can quickly lead to chronic health problems. When drugs are medically prescribed, side effects […]

An ancient story is told of two friends who were taking a trip through the desert. In the course of many discussions, an unusually sharp disagreement arose over a mutually sensitive issue. In a moment of impulsive rage, the one friend slapped the other in the face. Responding with great restraint and sadness, the man stooped down and wrote in the sand, “Today my good friend slapped me in the face.” and they walked on in strained silence. Much later arriving at a shaded, cool oasis they decided to take a refreshing bath. After a little bit the one slapped […]

“Champion” Focuses on Forgiveness

You may have found yourself at a movie theater to support a Christian film in the past, surrounded by members of your church, where the movie was corny, cheesy or unrealistic, the gospel was forced into scenes unnaturally, and you were glad you didn’t invite an unsaved friend. “Champion” is not that movie. It seems the industry is starting to get the idea behind making Christian films: outreach. This is not a movie made exclusively for Christians with cameos by famous Christian bands; “Champion” is a movie with actual potential to reach the unsaved. The gospel is presented very clearly […]

It was Mother’s Day 2013 when I stood before an altar in an empty church and accepted Christ into my life. I realized back then in that moment that Jesus picked that day for a specific reason. My doubt, my pain, my reason for living was all tied up in my role as a mother; it was why I was created. I didn’t understand the full significance of God’s reasons and timing in that moment, but I have since learned so much from him about why it had to happen that way.   Doubt You see, we as mothers continually […]

Do you ever feel overwhelmed with problems? Do you feel you are drowning in a sea of unresolvable and complex relationships and circumstances? Try “Spirit Filled Logic” to face these problems as you seek to find peace of mind and heart. First step is to ask God to help you properly define the problems you are facing. Separate your problems into different boxes; don’t lump them all together. Ask the Holy Spirit to give you discernment about how problems are different and yet how they relate. For instance, separate problems in your marriage relationship from problems you have parenting your […]

The Believer’s Battle Cry

“All those gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the Lord saves; for the battle is the Lord’s, and he will give all of you into our hands” (1 Samuel 17:47, NIV). 1 Samuel 17 recounts the God-glorifying story of David and Goliath. The Philistine giant Goliath was far bigger, much stronger, and vastly more skilled in battle than was David, the youngest of eight sons of Jesse . . . the shepherd boy. Goliath had every conceivable advantage known to man . . . except one, and that one advantage that David had […]

I Am Woman; Where’s My Roar?

John Hawkins, Sr

The message today to women is you can both have and do it all. So why aren’t more women roaring rather than dealing with depression and anxiety? It is hard to roar when you are depressed or anxious. I can hear some man saying, “Oh. my wife roars plenty around our house.” There is a big difference between yelling out of hurt and frustration and roaring with confidence and joy. Rather than buy into the world’s empty promises, let’s look at how to get your roar back. This begins with self acceptance.   Is self-image biblical? The short answer is […]
