On March 8, 1782, a group of Western settlers killed nearly 100 unarmed and peaceful Indians who had converted to Christianity under the tutelage of missionaries from the Church of the United Brethren.

Since that maelstrom of violence struck the small Indian village of Gnadenhutten, history has treated the episode as a simple morality tale.

In General Peter Muhlenberg: A Virginia Officer of the Continental Line, historian Michael Cecere cuts away the romanticism surrounding this fascinating character to present him as a highly capable and dedicated officer who served for seven long years in America’s War for Independence; a man of faith who held the high ideals of that office in his conduct with fellow officers and regular soldiers alike.

And so he gathered together a people for himself, and fostered them with many liberal distributions of his bounty, and, after so often finding them most ungrateful, ever exhorted them to repentance and sent out the voices of the universal company of the prophets to prophesy. By and by, promising freely the grace which in the last times he was intending to pour as a flood of light on the universal world through his Spirit, he bade the baptism of repentance lead the way.

Our souls cry out for nourishment, but many times we look to the world for a satisfying answer. God is always speaking, even in the most unsuspecting ways, and desires to feed our souls with the never stale food of his word. D. T. Niles said, "Christianity is one beggar telling another beggar where he found bread." So from one beggar to another, here is some bread for the day!

For a group of scientists, their Christian faith is put to the ultimate test: going back in time to find the true meaning of faith in Christ. For Dr. Graham Parker, his journey takes him back to the crucifixion. For his assistant Raj, his journey is the beginning of time itself. All Christians have come to a crossroads in their faith. Though this is a science fiction-based story, the lesson in faith is still the same. We must look no further than our own hearts according to God’s word.
