Your Substitute

Dear FBCO Family:

What do you think of when you think of the term substitute? I heard a story of a Prisoner of War, how after work one night a guard saw that a shovel was missing. (Click on the title to read more!)

“The Lord Our Banner”

Dear FBCO Friend:

The Bible reveals names for God. Not one name suffices for the greatness of God. Most of these names came as God revealed Himself sufficient in the midst of great tests. Exodus 17:15 says, “And Moses built an altar, and named it ‘The Lord is My Banner’” Yahweh Nissi. (Click the title to read more...)

“Good Friday”

Dear FBCO Friend:

On this pivotal day Jesus took my cross and paid for my sin. He did the same for you.  Good Friday is only “good” from the perspective of Easter Sunday - the day of resurrection. Without the resurrection, Good Friday would be the most horrible, despised day ever - the day hate killed perfect LOVE. Because of the resurrection, LOVE defeated death, deception and transforms lives and families one heart at a time! (Click the title to read more...)

Thursday: Day of Deception

Dear FBCO Friends:

I got a text message from a “friend” at 6:00am. It said, “Due to an unexplainable phenomena all roads going south into Tulsa are closed. The only way to get to Tulsa from Owasso is to go north to Bartlesville, then go to Hominy and follow a back road into Tulsa from Sand Springs.” I scrolled down farther and in the smallest font you ever saw it said, “April Fools!” (Click the title to read more...)
