God’s Perfect Love and Unchanging Holiness

FLOYD ROGERS

God’s nature is, above all, loving. Love is not something God does occasionally — it is a constant part of who He is. The Bible describes God as light, with no trace of darkness in Him. This means there is no evil, sin, or imperfection within God’s character. Everything about Him is pure, holy, and right.

Because God is completely holy and perfect, it is impossible for Him to act unjustly or harmfully toward any of His children. His holiness ensures that all His actions are good, and His love guarantees care and fairness. No situation would ever cause God to mistreat those who belong to Him.

This is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all.

1 John 1:5

Embracing God’s Unchanging Love

FLOYD ROGERS

There’s a simple affirmation I often share with God and myself, sometimes more than once a day, and usually before my feet touch the floor in the morning. I quietly thank God for letting me walk in the light of His love. This has nothing to do with whether the sun is shining outside. It’s about something deeper — the steady, unchanging love of God.

I can be sure of this because Christ lives in me, and I am in Him. God has promised to be my heavenly Father, and His love never shifts or fades. No matter what happens, whether I’m awake, walking through my day, or resting at night, I remain surrounded by the warmth of His love. This truth is firm and unchanging.

What matters is that we remember our identity in Him.

nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 8:39

Trusting God’s Timing

FLOYD ROGERS

Sometimes, it feels like God is silent. When we don’t see visible signs of change, we might think nothing is happening. However, the truth is that God is always there, even when we cannot see what he is doing. The problem often comes when His timing does not match what we think it should be. We expect answers when we want them, and when that doesn’t happen, we might believe God isn’t listening or acting.

But Scripture reminds us that God moves on behalf of those who wait for Him. Isaiah 64:4 says, God acts for those who wait for Him. This means He is constantly at work, arranging things according to His perfect plan, not our hurried expectations. The important choice we have is whether we will trust Him enough to follow His schedule instead of demanding our own.

Hope and strength come from staying close to God’s Word, listening for His guidance, and trusting that He is working for our good, even in the unseen moments.

Understanding Jesus’ Spiritual Presence in Our Lives

FLOYD ROGERS

If someone asked you today where Jesus Christ is, according to the Bible, what would you say? Scripture teaches that Jesus is in heaven, seated at the right hand of God the Father. That is His position now. But where does that leave those who believe in Him? Physically, we remain on earth, living our daily lives. However, there’s a deeper spiritual truth to remember.

The Bible makes it clear that for those who follow Christ, He lives within them, and they are also in Him. This means that wherever Jesus is, believers are united with Him in spirit. Though we walk on earth, our spiritual position is in heaven alongside Christ. Ephesians 2:6 supports this by saying, “And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus.”

Our identity is not limited to what we see around us. Spiritually, we share in Christ’s heavenly place, and His presence is with us wherever we go.

The Kingsmen Quartet: Navigating Change with Faith and Gratitude

JEFF TURNER

For nearly seven decades, The Kingsmen Quartet has been a staple in Southern gospel. As the group approaches its 70th anniversary, they find themselves in a season marked by both sorrow and celebration.

The past few weeks have brought significant moments. In a heartfelt message to fans, the group shared, “Some significant prayer needs and praise reports have been transpiring within our music ministry over the last few weeks, and the time has come to provide an update to our many fans and friends.” The Kingsmen delayed sharing their news out of respect for the recent passings of two beloved friends and alumni, Charles Abee and Squire Parsons.

Amid these losses, the group announced the departure of their tenor vocalist, Thomas Nalley. “It is bittersweet that the Kingsmen announce the departure of our friend and tenor vocalist, Thomas Nalley,” the post reads. Nalley, who joined the quartet nearly three years ago, quickly became a fan favorite and the voice behind such impactful songs as “Unstoppable God” and “Praying for the Prodigal.” His final concert with The Kingsmen took place on April 27.

The group expressed deep gratitude for Nalley’s contributions: “We sincerely thank him for his work, dedication, music, and genuine heart for ministry.” Nalley now turns his focus to his thriving business, Highnote Customs, which offers shirts, hats, 3D printing, and woodwork. “We pray with great expectation for the continued success of this multi-talented gentleman and friend,” the group added.

Even as they grieve and transition, The Kingsmen have reasons to rejoice. The group shared uplifting news about their office secretary, Wendi Gregg: “We are overjoyed to report that the recent major cancer surgery of our office secretary Wendi Gregg was a success. Praise God!” This praise report is a bright spot, reminding fans of the power of prayer and the resilience of the Kingsmen community.

Change is nothing new for The Kingsmen, whose lineup has evolved many times since their founding in 1956. As they search for their next tenor vocalist, the group remains anchored in faith: “As we approach our 70th anniversary and this time of transition with both prayer and anticipation, we are once again reminded of how God has never failed us. He has always been faithful.”

The Kingsmen are grateful for the friends and familiar faces who have stepped in to help during this period. “We greatly appreciate several friends and familiar faces who have been and will be filling in for us while we prayerfully seek our next tenor vocalist,” they wrote, assuring fans that “God already has the right man to help us continue our concert ministry forward to the next generation.”
