The Theology Of Praise
Contributed on Jun 20, 2020
How saturated is your life with praise?
Praise is the atmosphere of heaven, and we can enjoy that here on earth, as a Christian. The authentic and radical Christian has the advantage in this. The world and its events do not control our praise. Our praise flows from within and is a reflection of God within us. Our praise here is a ...read more

The Comfort God Gives To His People
Contributed on Jan 15, 2018
Nothing we experience can ever compromise the comfort God has for us.
Looking back over the past year there are many things we can be thankful. Often times we only remember the bad things and forget that God got us through those times by his grace. We can’t change the past, but we can be thankful for how God brought us through on the victorious way. As we ...read more

The Power Of Faith
Contributed on Jan 15, 2018
When I begin to understand the power of faith, I begin to appreciate what the Christian life is really all about.
Some people like to refer to themselves as a man or woman of faith. Yet, if you query them along that subject you discover they have no idea what a man or woman of faith is. Faith has become just a word we use when thinking of somebody who is religious. Their faith is rooted in their ...read more

The Dimensions Of The Lord’s Table
Contributed on Jun 24, 2017
To understand the dimensions of the Lord’s Table is to fully grasp the character and nature of our Christian experience.
1 Corinthians 10:14-33, 1 Corinthians 11:17-34 The Lord’s Table is a continuing memorial of the death, burial and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. It is the one thing Christians have celebrated from the very beginning. Jesus said to the early Christians concerning this, “This do ...read more

The Connection Between The Lord’s Supper And The Upper Room
Contributed on Jun 17, 2017
No matter how long you have been a Christian there are still more wondrous things to be discovered about the Christian life. And it is the challenge of my life each day to seek more and more of what it means to be a Christian.
Matthew 26:17-35; John 20:19-31 F. W. Boreham has a very interesting essay on the subject, “Seek and ye shall Find.” He takes a different twist on the Scripture and I was fascinated by it. He tells the story of when he was young and lost a little toy. He acquired this toy by exchanging ...read more

Why Are Flies So Attracted To My Nose?
Contributed on Dec 6, 2025
Throughout my life, I have dealt with many "pesky" things that provoke the dickens out of me. I sure do miss those "dickens.” When I think I've got one pesky thing under control, another comes along. I've had so many "pesky" things, but I'm still not a master ...read more

Fall Fell Way Too Soon This Year
Contributed on Nov 22, 2025
This summer was the best I have had in a long time. I enjoy summer because the weather is always warm, sometimes even hot. I was so focused on enjoying my summer that I did not realize Fall had arrived. The Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage came into my office the other day and said, “Do you ...read more

Truth Is As The Truther Says
Contributed on Nov 8, 2025
One thing I have learned in life is that for many people, truth is a relative thing. The truth is what they say it is, and you can't convince them otherwise. I wrestle with telling the truth all the time. If you tell the truth, you do not have to remember what happened. But when you lie, you ...read more

It’s My Pain I’ll Use It If I Want To
Contributed on Nov 1, 2025
When I think I've turned a page to a new chapter in my life, I realize there is nothing new in life. I'm referring to pain. I cannot remember a time in my life when I didn't have some pain. In the years of my naivety, I never imagined that when I got older, I would experience more ...read more

Where Oh Where Is My Hair
Contributed on Oct 25, 2025
It is true that I don't pay attention to many things in life. I guess I'm just too busy to notice everything. The Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage always asks me why I'm not paying attention. To keep engaged in that argument, I say, "I'm too poor to pay attention. Could I ...read more
