In these strange and difficult times, we all need a reminder of where our hope is found…come to the Well…

By Shirley “Kay” Fruchey

“…for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty.

By Shirley Fruchey

“… Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think about such things.”—Philippians 4:8

Gems From The Well: Have Yourself A “Mary” Little Christmas (Vol 4)

Shirley Fruchey, “Gems From The Well”

In these strange and difficult times, we all need a reminder of where our hope is found…come to the Well…

By Shirley Fruchey

Luke 10:42, “But only one thing is needed. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken from her.”

I’m one of those people who go into the grocery store for one thing and end up with my arms overflowing with items because I needed “one thing more.” Very quickly, items are all stacked precariously on my person, with things in danger of dropping here and there on my way to the check-out line. And, I just keep adding to the heap!  Continue reading →

James 1:2-3; Hebrews 10: 35-36 & 1 Peter 5: 8-9

“The Trouble with Spiritual Yoga Pants in a Pandemic!”

Many years ago, I wrote a piece for Women’s Ministries called “The Trouble with Yoga Pants.” I was much younger, had small children, and was a stay at home mommy. I was full of exciting ideas about my home, family, and my Christian walk.

Can I Trust the New Testament?

By Dr. Rick Cornish
(”5 Minute Apologist”—2005)

The New Testament is a collection of twenty-seven documents written by Christ’s apostles and their friends 2,000 years ago. Their original writings, called autographs, no longer exist. Today we read copies of copies translated from Greek into English or other modern languages. But copyists make errors. How can we know that today’s versions accurately record what the authors wrote so long ago? When we read the New Testament, is it what God intended us to have. Continue reading →
