Books I Have Been Reading

by PGBC

This may be the Library news but it’s from my “nest” at home right now.  As I sit here on the back porch soaking up the sun and beauty of the mountains, I am so very thankful for another successful surgery on my other knee and thankful for each of you and your prayers.  I […]

Give Thanks Always For Everything

by PGBC

Sometimes I will come across a passage that I have read numerous times and suddenly something lands on me that I had not really gotten my mind around before. Just recently I was studying in Ephesians and this verse just jumped all over me. It was one of those moments when a part of your […]

Are you growing in Christ?

by PGBC

Twenty-two years ago Janice and I embarked on a journey that we truly were not prepared for and had no idea where it would lead.  You see on the 3rd of May our baby girl will be 22 years old and I can hardly believe it.  I still remember the piercing cry that this tiny […]

Fear Of The Lord

by PGBC

Proverbs 19:23 states: “The fear of the Lord leads to life….” The theme of this year’s youth Disciple-Now weekend was “Fearless”, where the youth learned what it means to have life as children of an almighty God. Now my question for you is: do you fear the Lord? What does fearing the Lord even mean to you? Is […]

St. Patrick

by PGBC

This March 17th many people will celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, and pinch their neighbor who is not wearing green. But why do we celebrate? St. Patrick, born in AD 387 in Scotland, was famous for his missionary work in Ireland. During his work there, he allegedly established 300 churches, and led many to the Lord. […]

Sanctuary

by PGBC

The word SANCTUARY has been on my mind this week.  I want to talk about it.  What does it mean? a safe place:  a haven of rest:  a shelter in a storm:  a Holy place:   a place of refuge:  a gathering place. These make me think of God as my Sanctuary…….but, can we be a […]

You Are God’s workmanship

by PGBC

This is and will continue to be one of my favorite verses in scripture, but I confess I have a lot of favorite verses!  Do you realize that you are God’s workmanship?  The New Living Translation says we are His Masterpiece.  You are not an accident and even though you may not feel like you […]
