Is there an enemy that Jesus cannot defeat? God "desires all people to be saved, and to come to the knowledge of the truth." But that will is thwarted in some, because of their pride. Self-righteousness isn't a disease that strikes only Pharisees; those of us who were good church boys and girls have to watch out for it, too. Jesus told a story about this. Jim's message is called, The Heart of a Prayer.

Many are asking about developments concerning the Mount Ararat Discovery: what appears a large frozen ancient wooden structure buried under volcanic rock and ice near the top of Mount Ararat in Eastern Turkey. What is most interesting is that the Bible mentions the mountains of Ararat (ancient Urartu) as the resting place of Noah’s Ark. Though not always known by its current name, being the tallest mountain in the Ancient Near East, Mount Ararat is the only mountain in ancient Urartu where the tops of the surrounding mountains would still be covered with water when viewed from the mountain where the Ark came to rest. The discovery of Otzi the Iceman in the Italian Alps back in the early nineties shows how the permanently frozen conditions on top of this mountain could have preserved wood for thousands of years.
