Regurgitationalistics

Contributed by G W Bill Elliott Jr on Nov 27, 2019

Have you noticed that we tend to get all caught up communicating and sharing thoughts, ideas, “news and information” and that we easily fall into the trap of just being talking-heads… mostly... just regurgitating thoughts and ideas, but not actually contributing.

Man has never invented a single thing (as of this writing)… ever never… nothing new… never… not one new element has been introduced into life. All we’ve done is ‘assemble’ things to be something else, and we call it ‘inventing’. Semantics, I know… but our thoughts and the many things we voice ...read more

Does Prayer And Faith Complement Each Other? Series

Contributed by Billy Paul on May 12, 2020

Just praying all the time without fleshing out the answers received through prayers would tantamount to being faithless. At the same time, acting without an under girding of trust in God – which is prayer – is also tantamount to being faithless.

Three theologians sat discussing the best positions for prayer while a telephone repairman worked nearby. “Kneeling is definitely best,” claimed one. “No,” another contended, “I get the best results standing with my hands outstretched to Heaven.” “You're both wrong,” the third insisted, “the ...read more

You Are A Theologian!

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jun 16, 2020

We often think of theologians as those with high-sounding degrees but in reality we are all theologians in a very general sense. Two questions arise; are we Biblical theologians and are we GOOD Biblical theologians???

You Are A Theologian! Today we will be reading from Deuteronomy 17:14-20 Who are the theologians of this church? Before you answer that, what is a theologian and what is theology? And to answer that requires a two step process. The English word “theologian” comes from two Greek words with an ...read more
