The Sword and the Trowel By Paris Reidhead* Our theme this morning, The Sword and the Trowel. I shall begin reading with the 12th verse, and conclude with the 18th verse, in order to give background for the text. Nehemiah 4:12 - 18: 12And it came to pass, that when the Jews which dwelt by them came,... Read More

"When the Son of man cometh, shall he find the faith on the earth?" (Luke 18:8). Place that passage alongside of those read in our previous meditation (1 Tim. 6:12; 2 Tim. 4:7; Jude 3; Rev. 2:13); we will not repeat them in full just now.

I'm often asked about the most beautiful places I've seen on earth. I have a long list of those, but at the top would be Antarctica and then Greenland in the Arctic. The beauty is stunning and beyond words to express. I have been down to Antarctica at different places twice carrying the cross. What ... Read More

can remember time after time as I carried the cross along the roads of the world, that a pastor would come out and talk with me and invite me to carry the cross to his church up the road and preach. He would drive back and spread the word in the village, town, or city. The people were eager to hear ... Read More

"He spoke a parable unto them…that men ought always to pray, and not to faint" (Luke 18:1). No temptation in the life of intercession is more common than this of failure to persevere.
