There are just certain things needed to make a day a good day. Like the correct ingredients in baking a cake or cookies or a roast—the correct ingredients and the ...read more

    I’m a fool for Christ! Who’s fool are you?

    I feel sometimes that we in the church get too serious. I know that most of the time it’s a serious matter-a matter of life and death literally. But its ok to smile in church! Its ok to laugh in church! Its ok to tell jokes in church! Years ago the popular pass-time was telling jokes. This ...read more

    What seems to be foolish to us, God counts as wisdom.

    1 Corinthians 1:21-29 (KJV) “For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumbling ...read more
