Journal Entry
From the journal of Niki Schemanski Oh how the spirit is opening my eyes to the rejection and misunderstanding the Lord Jesus suffered while on Earth. It didn’t only come on the night of the cross; it came almost continually throughout his 3 years of His ministry. It came from his disciples, from the Pharisees,

The Greatest Day In History
“The greatest day in history, death is beaten, you have rescued me. Shout it out – Jesus is alive!” These are the opening lyrics from one of my latest favorite songs “Happy Day”, and they’re still resounding in my head after leading worship on Easter Sunday. Personally, Easter is my favorite holiday. On Good Friday
