ON MEDITATION
The Hebrew word translated "meditate" speaks of what a cow does after grazing all day. As she chews the cud over and over again, she extracts every nutrient. In other words, to meditate means to ponder a section of the Word day and night, extracting more from its inexhaustible supply

HAND IN HAND, NOT EYE TO EYE
There is a study by James Dobson that reveals that men use about 25,000 words a day, but women use 50,000. Now, ladies when you say, "My husband just won’t listen to me..." You’ve got to realize he doesn’t have the brain with the capacity to hold as much as you can

Being completely set apart for God’s use and being a holistic community means able to define who God is calling us to be both individually and corporately. We may need to say “no” to some good things in order to become what we need to be to reach who God wants us to reach. I believe these seven

When we studied this in our small group, we looked at the story of a man who was possessed by a bunch of demons. He was wild. He tortured. Casting Crowns has written a song telling this story. And I found a video that has dramatized the story and song. Let’s take a

The Jews have this concept, when they celebrate the Passover, they are not only remembering the deliverance of their ancestors from Egypt, they are celebrating their own deliverance from Egypt. It is a concept of historical solidarity. The bible presents this same view in baptism and in the

Get involved and be willing to learn. I think sometimes the greatest damage the Christians do to our collective witness is being unwilling to learn and listen to the perspectives of others. They think that they are to get involved but that ends up meaning that they are there not to help but make

YOU CAN'T STUDY ALL THE TIME
The best way I can explain what I mean is looking at my teacher training. As most of you know, I was at once time a student teacher. A lot of what we do is theory – child development, teaching methods, and so on. Even when you graduate you’re expected to keep up my

Here’s my calendar for July. (………) I mark up the days which have a special meaning for me or an event to watch out for. Last month I did have a calendar event – it was my birthday! That was a ‘red-letter day’, something which marks an important day. I won’t tell you how many years
