John 4: 7-21

For as surely as our heartfelt prayers and praises are sweet smelling aromas to our God, our words and actions can be sweet beau...

During free time, you can play on the beach, swim in the ocean or the pool, you can play sand soccer or gaga ball, and lots of other fun things! Unfortunately, I broke...

Since we all were at home for the most part during the shelter in place, I found some new podcasts to enjoy, as I'm sure many of you did as well. World Radio's "Listening In" was one such podcast. Many of you will remember several years ago when World Magazine's editor-in-chief, Marvin Olasky, was in Greenwood and spoke at Westminster one Wednesday night...

But alas, the fun and sun is short lived and sooner than desired, the one or two week v...

Even though "Summer" doesn't technically begin until June 20th, it is universally thought to begin as soon as the school year ends. And by that account, summer is in full swing in the Delta! And Westminster is ready to take advantage of the warmer months and lazier days. Here are some exciting events that have been planned for our Youth, Rooted Kids, and Families over ...

Every church is either independent and answe...

"Michelle, are you mad at death, or are you mad at God?"
That simple, loaded question stopped my spiraling and rendered me shocked and speechless. That question, asked gently with genuine concern, has dominated my thoughts for three weeks now.

There are many good devotionals available to read. One that Brady and I really enjoy is J.C. Ryle's "Daily Readings From all Four Gospels: For Morning and Evening" compiled by Robert Sheehan.
