With increasing divorce rates, even among professing Christians, we determine the home is in trouble. Weak homes make for weak churches. Weak churches make for a weak nation. My objective is to remind you of the biblical precepts which make for strong marriages and strong homes. May we heed God's Word.
Years ago my pastor said, "Sometimes you have to put feet to your prayers." Perhaps what was needed was a balance. This involves the sovereignty of God and human responsibility. Today, I offer my view.
We come now to the final lesson of the book of Luke. Here we find Jesus teaching and then leaving to go to Heaven.
We know what it is like to anticipate the arrival of someone, whether it is a celebrity, a politician, or a loved one returning from a journey. Jesus ascended from this earth and went into Heaven but one of these days He will return. Let's concern ourselves with the fact that Jesus is coming again.

Of course, we are thinking about the resurrection of Jesus.
There are plenty of things of which to be afraid. But, is that how the child of God should respond? It is my intention to offer you words of encouragement today.
