10. Can Man Be Righteous Before God

by John Fulton

Can man be righteous before God? From so many pulpits across the globe the answer to that is a clear and resounding NO! One sin, it is said, permanently separates you from God. But is this really the image Scripture leaves us? Is this really what God has to say about us? Does he truly loath our existence to such an extent? Can no man walk with him and be considered righteous?…

9. What Does It Mean to Connect With God

by Jenny Fulton

What does it mean to connect, to have a connection with God—this great person we can’t see?

8. What is the Great Tribulation?

By John Fulton

What is the Great Tribulation mentioned here? If you’re a Protestant from America after the Civil War, the answer is simple. The Great tribulation is the hellish, godless world that follows the removal of Christ’s followers. But is this really the Great Tribulation, or is the Great Tribulation something else? Does this narrative fit the context of chapters six and seven of Revelation or the book up to that point? Or is there a different answer? And if a different answer, can that answer bring hope to Christians today?…

7. The Sin of the Church

by John Fulton

The main theme of nearly every Christmas show or movie seems to be that Christmas is in crisis and in need of saving.  And what is the crisis? Children may not get toys and gifts, and if they don’t get a present, particularly one they really want, Christmas is ruined and over. During one Christmas season, in the midst of watching Christmas shows with my girls all about Santa and not getting gifts, I found myself wanting to take my daughters to a show that would be about the Christ who was once at the heart of Christ’s Mass. When I saw an ad for a show titled “Christ the King” being put on by a local church, I thought I had found it…

6. Homeschooling vs. Traditional Schooling

by Jenny Fulton

Growing up, I attended a public school, then went to a private Christian University. I’ve taught in public, private, grant, charter, and university model schools. I’ve worked as a homeschool tutor and homeschooled my kids for a couple years. They currently attend a private Christian school. Involvement in these educational settings has given me a great amount of respect for each while simultaneously alerting me to some of the misconceptions…

5. Managing Conflict with the Armor of God

by Jenny Fulton

Unless we’re hermits, we see and communicate with other people nearly every day of our lives. Some of our relationships are strong and healthy, while others are filled with frequent unhealthy interactions. But every human connection, even our best ones, carries the potential for conflict. While most of us would prefer to avoid unpleasant confrontations, we can manage conflicts in a healthy way with the Armor of God…

4. The God Who Didn’t Need to Die but Did Anyway

by John Fulton

God stood before the crowd. An invisible God had made himself visible by begetting a Son through a virgin. That Son was the exact likeness of the Father, a complete representation of his character whom God had sent as an envoy to explain and show the people in bodily form who he was, what he was about, and what he wanted…

3. Easter or Resurrection Sunday? Does it Matter?

By John Fulton

I have felt the contempt and seen the looks on faces when I’ve said “Happy Easter” to Resurrection Sunday protestants and heard the lectures on how I’m celebrating a pagan God. I even embraced saying Resurrection Sunday for a time and experienced just the opposite in reverse.  Both sides holding the other in contempt. So, is it Easter, is it Resurrection Sunday? Does it matter?…

2. The Dunkard Brethren Church and Beyond

by Jenny Fulton

I grew up in the Dunkard Brethren (DB) Church. No, not Drunkard. Dunkard. It comes from the German word tunker which means ‘to immerse.’ The Dunkard Brethren baptize new members by dunking them forward three times in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Since I released a Bible Study and I mention this denomination in the first chapter, I thought I’d give a more thorough explanation of the Dunkard Brethren Church, share a little about my experiences growing up in it, and summarize my exposure to other churches since I left home…

1. Victory in Christ Over Spiritual Enemies

by Jenny Fulton

Our world consists of so much more than what is visible. We put our faith in God, whom we can’t see. Passages in the Old and New Testaments reveal angelic beings operating on God’s behalf in various capacities. From Genesis to Revelation, we see evidence that while God and His angels are actively working for our good, there are also adverse spiritual forces fervently seeking our destruction…
