Is there room for a Hallelujah? By Mark O’Farrell At a time such as this in our confused, chaotic, and misguided culture, is there room for a Hallelujah? I maintain there is! Why … you may ask. The answer is settled in the reality that as believers, God’s people, we know the End and we know the New Beginning that is forthcoming! It is clearly seen throughout Scripture, but Revelation 19 captures the core or essence of confidence and courage in…
By Peggy Bragg My personal relationship and life’s journey with Jesus began in an old open-air chapel with a sawdust floor. Trinity College students, Percy & Hazel Cannon, ran a Christian camp in North Florida on the Suwannee River called Camp O’ the Suwanee. Having been in Dad’s classes, they wanted to do something to show their thanks for him and his teaching. They decided to give two free weeks in their camp to all four of the Bragg children;…
You Missed It! By Mark O’Farrell, College President Over the years, I am fairly certain someone has come up to you with these words: ‘You Missed It!’ It might have been something you forgot to see. Or, you might have been preoccupied and did not experience or realize what happened. Or, you did not think it was important so you did not plan to be present or look into the event. Usually, for me, it was a friend, colleague, or…
“Already Not Yet” By Dr. Eric J. Bargerhuff The Christian’s dilemma could be best characterized by the “already not yet” reality of the Christian life. As those who have trusted in Christ for our salvation, we stand before God in a positional state of “grace” (Romans 5:1-2). What this means is that we are no longer condemned, exonerated from wrath, covered by the blood of Jesus, promised an inheritance, and so forth. That’s the “already” aspect of being saved. “Not…
BY MARK O’FARRELL: Uncertainties, Unknowns, and the Unwanted have saturated our present environment. Challenges and Concerns arrive daily. And as believers, we know 2 Timothy 1:7: For God has not given us a Spirit of fear, but of power and of love, and of a sound mind. But anxiousness and anxiety appear quickly on the surface as we hear the next status report of COVID-19. And then … the other news comes into crowd our awareness such as issues with law…
Lasting Impact At Home By Charlie Martin, Trinity Alumni Trinity College of Florida made a great impact on my life and my pastoral ministry at Indian Rocks Baptist Church. My story begins when I was a 16-year-old boy at my home church in El Dorado, Arkansas. A Trinity Student visited our church and brought a catalog with Billy Graham’s picture on the front cover. My Sunday school teacher knew that I had been praying for God’s will and where I…
We Have to Do Something! BY MARK O’FARRELL As I reflect over the years, I can remember clearly times when I had to “do something.” Regarding two house fires, one next to my house and another involving my pastor’s wife, I had to get people out. I could not stand by and not “do something!” A giant 18-wheeler literally went off the road right in front of my car on the interstate and crashed into the woods. I had to…
BY DR. STU PARSONS: I sometimes tell my classes about some of the theological implications of the Lord’s Supper. These are actually very much a blessing to me on a weekly basis, since I am blessed to be a member of a church that celebrates the Supper weekly. As I wait in line to eat and drink the elements, I pray to our Father, thanking Him for His grace poured out for us 2000 years ago when He gave His…
BY FRANK GIL: We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain, where Jesus has gone as a forerunner on our behalf, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek. (Hebrews 6:19-20 ESV) Have you ever been in a place where you felt like you were sinking and you were helpless in finding a way out? Literally, one time I was on a canoe with…
BY KEVIN DUNN: I love sharing Jesus with people who don’t know him (though I don’t do it as much as I wish I did). But if I’m honest, I partly love it for selfish reasons. Paul says in his letter to Philemon, “I pray that the sharing of your faith may become effective for the full knowledge of every good thing that is in us for the sake of Christ” (Philemon 1:6). In other words, Paul is praying that…
