This world lays in the clutches of sin today...we are fat, bloated, and have forgotten how to weep for the sinfulness that lays all around us and I lay the blame at the feet of God's chosen messengers...the ministers.
We tell them what they want to hear...that God will forgive them if they

Living in sin is like having a running car in a closed garage: the more we live in sin, the more Carbon Monoxide will inevitably come out. It is a byproduct of our exhaust as sinful people. The visible smoke will also build up over time, and it is harder to see that we need

"When we sin, we are judged because in that moment of choosing sin we are actually electing the absence of God in our lives at that point. You see, [sin and salvation are] always relational. Sin separates us from God--that’s the point--sin is our embrace of the absence of God in our

DEAREST JESUS, HOLY CHILD
Ah, dearest Jesus, holy Child,
Make thee a bed, soft, undefiled,
Within my heart, that it may be
