(When Jesus declared the paralyzed man had been forgiven of his sins as well as healed) some of the experts in the Law sitting there were shocked and grumbled amongst themselves, "How dare this man say such things! What blasphemy! Only God can forgive sin!" Jesus knew at once what they were saying and said to them, "Why are you rejecting what God is doing here? Which is easier - to say to a paralyzed man, 'Your sins are forgiven' - or to tell that man to get up, take up your...

When Jesus answered that He would go to the house, the centurion responded that he was unworthy for Jesus to enter his home and that all Jesus had to do was say the word and the servant would be healed. Reading the rest of this account reveals several wonderful gems for living the Christian life in Christ. We struggle with facing hardships and often become distraught over...

Th...
The Havre Blue Ponies were excited for their long-awaited return to the Class A state tournament. Unfortunately, for HHS, things didn’t quite go as planned.

At the start of the Class A football playoffs, the possibility of Havre hosting the state championship game always existed. Now though, the Blue Ponies are just one win away from doing something they haven’t done in 11 years.

Making things more difficult is the fact that Havre has to do it o...
The Montana State University-Northern Lights are an extremely young football team. And in a rebuilding year, having only four seniors on the entire roster makes the Lights even younger and more inexperienced.
