Today's daily verse or my verse of choosing  'Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. ' Philippians 2:1-4https://www.bible.com/bible/111/PHP.2.1-4

I've decided to make a forum post about the songs of the week sidebar page. I will now post it weekly in forums for people who may not pay attention to the sidebar and also look at forums. Feel free to comment on suggestions and whether or not I should continue doing this. Though this isn't the first song of the week ever, this is officially the first of hopefully many in the forums. Wherever I Go - Dan Bremnes "Wherever I Go" by Dan Bremnes came out in 2018 and reached #12 on Christian radio charts and #19 on the Hot Christian Songs chart. The music video stood out for being filmed in seven countries over just eight days, showing a mix of stunning locations and travel shots. The song became one of his most recognized hits and helped lead into his 2019 album, also called Wherever I Go.

It also crossed over to mainstream success, charting on the Billboard Hot 100 and winning a Grammy for Best Contemporary Christian Music Performance. It’s one of her biggest songs and made her a well-known name beyond just Christian music.  Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_49NQI3XTQ For the question of the day today, if you could instantly become really good at one thing, what skill would you choose?

The song emphasizes the power of grace and the truth that we are made flawless through Christ, regardless of our past. Its music video features individuals holding signs revealing their struggles, then flipping them to show new labels like “Forgiven” and “Loved.” It’s a moving reminder of the hope found in faith.

Thank you to @IrregularSam for permission to post this. All credit goes to him. The validity of Christianity stands or falls on whether Christ did or did not return from the physical dead after several days. Meanwhile .... give a moment of imagination to what the whole world would be like, compared to that which it is today, if it embraced and persistently practiced the teachings of Jesus. “A thorough knowledge of the Bible is worth more than a college education.” ~ Theodore Roosevelt, 26th President of USA (1858-1919) - [New Testament at 5 minutes a day, 5 days a week, completion in 52 weeks: www.TheBible.bz ] The Bible needs to be read cover to cover while one still can.
