Arthelene rippy biography of abraham

by Deborah Malone and Rita Prochazka

Evelyn we are so pleased you stopped by to chat with us. I know your interview is going to be encouraging to other &#;seasoned&#; women.

Questions by Rita:

Evelyn can you share some of your testimony?

I accepted Jesus as my savior as a teenager. I grew up in a Christian home always understanding that God had a plan and a purpose for my life.

What is your favorite Bible verse and why?

My favorite scripture is Luke And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her. I love this scripture and I try to live by those words. Whatever the Lord says, I want to be quick to say yes, not to linger not to ponder, but to say yes.

Briefly, what are some things you&#;ve learned in your walk with God in this season of your life?

In this season of my life as a widow, for five years, one thing that I have learned is that God is faithful. I can trust Him %. The Scripture speaks of God&#;s tender care for widows, and I have experienced that in my own life

How have you prepared or been prepared for your ministry?

The Lord called me to Women Ministries in , at the time I was a stay-at-home mom to very young children and my husband had recently started a church. I felt the Lor

Who Will You Deny? Yourself or The Lord? - by John Wesley

John Wesley lived in the 's, and was perhaps England's most famous evangelist and preacher. His writings, preaching, and life ministry have made a tremendous impact on the Church as a whole. This article was taken from "The Complete Works of John Wesley," published by Baker Book House. As our brother John urged, read this message with a prayerful, open heart.

"If anyone wishes to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me." - Luke

Denying ourselves and taking up our cross isn't a little side issue - it is absolutely necessary to becoming or continuing to be a disciple of Jesus. If we don't practice self-denial, we aren't His disciples. It's useless to try to follow the One who was crucified without taking up our own cross daily. Unless we deny ourselves, it will be impossible not to deny the Lord. But so many who have written about self-denial (some of them large volumes) don't seem to have an understanding of the subject. Either they couldn't explain it to others, or they didn't know how far to take it, or they didn't sense the absolute necessity of it. Others speak of it in such a dark, mystical way, that the average man can't understand what it's supposed to mean.
