A Squirrel in the road:
This week as I was thinking about roads and signposts and choices,
I was on our road right out here and as I turned the corner, I saw a squirrel

There was a time when my folks visited me and saw a bizarre arrangement in my living room. I had a nice sofa, but I couldn’t afford end tables. So, I’d taken cardboard boxes and covered them with blankets to hold lamps and magazines. It was clever, but it didn’t look nice. Frankly, it looked pretty

The Visitation of God
Revival is the visitation of God, which brings to life Christians who have been sleeping and restores a deep sense of God’s near presence and holiness. Thence springs a vivid sense of sin and a profound exercise of heart in repentance, praise, and love, with an

Charles Spurgeon, The Prince of Preachers, said: “It is the preacher’s principle business… to cry, “Behold the lamb of God.” For this reason was John (the Baptist) born and came into the world… his chief errand was to herald the Messiah, the Son of God. What we have said of
