A Great Mystery: Christians Who Don’t Forgive

April 5, 2021

I’ve been a born-again child of God for almost 28 years. I was saved when I was fifteen years old and since, then, I’ve made a lot of mistakes. Therefore, in the intervening years, I’ve also had to make a lot of apologies to both fellow-Christians and non-Christians alike. Interestingly, I have had a 100% …

This Week’s Ironing Sermon: Sufficient Grace

Valerie Basham

2 comments

July 12, 2019

I have been working to become more organized in my daily tasks. Rather than ironing shirts as they are needed, I’m trying to look at the week ahead and do my ironing all at once. This means I can easily spend an hour ironing. This is boring. When I was a little girl, my mother …

October 4, 2014

I fear I’m beginning to sound like a broken record, but I have to say it yet again about another book: It was so good! The Personal Spiritual Life convicted me and helped me in many ways. Dr. Peter Masters, pastor of the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London, England, helps us navigate our way through a …

Does Prayer Work?

Valerie Basham

14 comments

September 24, 2014

My prayer life stinks. Really. I don’t pray as often as I should, and I certainly don’t always pray for the right things when I do pray. I’ve mentioned Dr. R.C. Sproul before on the blog. I enjoy his writings. He is very descriptive and has a way of putting things so that my teeny …

My Appointment

Valerie Basham

1 comment

April 4, 2013

Every morning, I get up, stumble my way to the coffee pot and wait the four minutes for it to fill up. Then, I get my coffee into the cup and stumble to my quiet time spot, my school room. I lock the door, get out my notebook and start reading. Some days, it’s like …
