     | 4,374 views

    Although much of our time is spent on small points of ministry, we must never forget some of the big principles of church life.

     | 7,136 views

    Being human is generally a good thing. The temptation in our day is to manipulate or engineer human nature and deny its realities. But a church is about real people, redeemed by Jesus, but fully human — even more human — because of that redemption.

I asked, after folding items the woman wished to purchase. As she fumbled for her wallet, I noticed a remote control for a ...read more

    The most macho of men in the world are those with whom a woman can know she is safe, respected, and treasured to be protected from anything that could spoil her. Every sister needs that kind of brother.

    Hey, Bro! Text: 1 Timothy 5:2 The Word of God in 1 Timothy 5:2 is God’s roadmap for relationships between young men and women. He says, "Treat the younger women as sisters, with absolute purity." That’s not how our culture tells young men to treat young women. It’s more like "treat the young women ...read more
