People are forgetful. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’ve known some people who were not forgetful. They had a great memory. One such person was Charles Coke. He could remember details from long ago. He would remember names and numbers. Still, when it comes to remembering God, human beings are generally very forgetful. Judges 8:34 … Read More »

We have been reading most of this year from the books which Moses wrote. We did read Job because he was probably a contemporary of Abraham and lived long before Moses.

PVBC family, Most of you will read this after Sunday, July 26th. By then, we will have been back to “in-person worship” for twelve weeks. Yet, many of you have not been back. I am sure some feel left out in spite of many efforts to keep all connected. Our staff, some of our deacons… Read More »
