Contributed by Thomas Clawser on Dec 17, 2017

And you begin to grasp what it was you missed, like Moses in the cleft of the rock, watching God's [back] fade in the distance. So stay. Sit. Linger. Tarry. Ponder. Wait. Behold. Wonder.

Contributed by Thomas Clawser on Jan 28, 2017

My course of study (Master of Divinity) included five semesters in systematic theology, among the most ...read more

What Does God Want With Me? Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 9, 2014

One of these fall mornings when the temperature drops, you're going to walk outside and when you breathe, you'll see a vapor cloud. Watch how fast it disappears: That's the length of your life according to the Bible.

INTRODUCTION A few weeks ago, I was channel surfing on my satellite radio, and I heard a pop song that kept repeating, “What do you want from me?” I tend to baptize, or biblicize everything I hear, so that phrase made me wonder if people ever stop and ask God, “God, what do you ...read more
