Inspiration for our times ~ Know Him by Name ~

The name of Jesus is controversial. He is a most controversial figure in the world today. Who is Jesus? Is He LORD? Is He the Son of God? Is He a prophet? Is he a good moral teacher? Is He a lunatic gone mad? . The most important search you’ll have in your life will be to find that answer. Luckily you can find it historically, logically, through literature, nature, and even through your emotions. It doesn’t matter how you search. You will find Jesus whether it be in this life or the next.

For me He is the Son of God, my Savior, my Friend my Redeemer!

Inspiration For Our Times ~ Stand on the shoulders of those who went before us ~

This week I have posted songs that show youth who have learn from others. Also songs that just make me happy. The speech is a father speaking to his son and telling him a few of the character traits that will have his son be happy in this life and the life to come. I truly believe that if we learn in our youth we have so much more the advantage to be content as adults. I hope you enjoy this week's selections and may God's spirit be with you throughout the week.

Listen to: T. Bowring Woodbury speak at Rick's College in 1969 His speech begins at 1:40 minutes
