As caregivers, we want our children to know that we love them even amidst their wrong choices, big emotions, and our own mistakes. As believers, we want all children to know the true nature of God, His never-failing grace, and that we will never lose Christ's gift of salvation, no matter what.In the book, "Always, Always, Always," children can explore these essential life lessons and core values, identify their emotions, and know without a doubt that they are loved. Just like a prayer that I say to my own 3 children every night, my hope is that this message is heard by every child: "Jesus loves you; Always, Always, Always."

The main theme of this 90 day devotional on the book of Exodus is worship. To worship is to honor with love and submission. Worship is a matter of the heart expressed through a lifestyle of praising him. Worship is (but is more than) singing, clapping, and raising hands. Worship is a lifelong commitment to follow our Lord. Worship is for everyday life.This devotional puts an emphasis on worship in giving the reader ideas for different ways to worship. For example, the first devotional is on immigrants/ illegal aliens. Reading this may spur you as an activist to seek justice for those who are unwanted, providing for them with hospitality. As a person of prayer you may intercede for the immigrants that you know personally.The format of this devotional is set so that you, your family, or small group can read a portion of Exodus and/or a related scripture followed by a suggested worship format. The worship may be a prayer, music, an activity, or a piece of art to view. It may be a concept to study or a phrase to contemplate. Try out the different formats, listen to the Lord, and learn new ways to worship.

"Live to Live" is refreshing in its message of hope yet it is an urgent appeal to humanity to choose Eternal Life, in the Light, rather than in darkness. It is a call for a change of heart for those living a life of vanity to turn to God and, if they are backsliders, to return to him and, if Christians, to passionately pursue Him.Reviewers on the Poet Lilouitee Joyce BacchusJoyce's poems are very powerful, anointed, captivating, encouraging and thoughtful. They stir up feelings of repentance, reprimand, and love all in a subtle manner. These poems compel you to examine your life to make sure you are in right standing with your maker. They take you on a silent journey in which you are anxious to see what is at the end, and the end always leads to His presence.Marie France THOMIAS, BankerJoyce's style of writing is quite unique. Her poems are honestly and naturally written from her very own perspective, understanding and insight of the subject she deals with. Her approach is not to make lines rhyme, but to relate the inspired messages she receives, in a simple, understanding, and powerful way.Pastor Jerome THOMAS, Christian Assembly MinistriesJoyce's first published work is a blessing. It is refreshing and compelling, inspirational, and spiritual. It conjures up in its many verses, the Divine love story which finds expression in God's continual invitation to man to accept his redemptive plan "To Live (spiritually) to Live (experientially)" the fulness of life through divine encounter and direction.

This is an eight-week precept Bible study on the Apostle Paul's letter to the believers in Philippi. The Philippian church was started during Paul's second missionary journey when he led a women named Lydia and a Philippian jailer to the Lord. Fast forward ten years and we find Paul on house arrest in Rome for a crime he did not commit. Paul wrote Philippians to thank them for their financial support and encouragement. He also used this letter to address an issue that was threatening to divide the church.Philippians has been described as Paul's joy letter because it emphasizes the joy of living the Christian life. What makes this letter so remarkable is that Paul was joyful and found contentment while wrongfully imprisoned in Rome. How is this possible? Listen to Paul's answer: "I have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am. I know how to get along with little, and I also know how to live in prosperity; in any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of being filled and going hungry, both of having abundance and suffering need" (Philippians 4:11-12).What was Paul's secret for being content and living a joyful life no matter his circumstances? His secret was simple, it was grounded in his faith in Jesus. That's what this study is about. Join me as we follow Paul and experience the special relationship he had with the Philippians and his deep desire to know Christ above all else.
