He crossed His hands

Recollection by: Gabriela Yareliz- Based on Steve Riley’s sermon at the Florida Conference Campmeeting. Riley is the Senior Pastor of Stanmore Avenue Church in Port of Spain, Trinidad.

Belief &Truth

By: Gabriela Yareliz The words of this song are so meaningful. In times of uncertainty, it pays to think of those who faced big decisions and trials before you and how God delivered them in the past.

When God speaks

By: Gabriela Yareliz Lately, I am not quite sure what has been wrong with me. Things are going well, don’t get me wrong, and God is always good.

Steadfast

By: Gabriela Yareliz I read Samuel Pipim’s resignation letter. I know this is old news. I cried.  For those who don’t know who he is, really all you have to know is that he is a leader. He has spoken on some of the most controversial Bible topics, and he started campus ministries. I criedContinue reading “Steadfast”
