    If the Apostle Paul Were to Write A Christmas Letter…it would be all about YOU. And what Paul has to say about you depends on what he has to say about Christ.

    I have a confession to make. It’s been seven years since I’ve written a Christmas letter. I know, I know. I have no excuses. Everyone else is busy at this time of year and yet manages to get a Christmas letter written, edited, addressed, and posted to a million family and friends. If I were to ...read more

    The example of the Macedonian our Corinthian churches give us tremendous advice on the sensitive subject of tithing for NT believers today! Advice that is easy to understand requiring very little interpretation!

    So much is said about tithing and yet it is probably the most difficult subject for me to speak on. I think it would be actually easier if the church was wealthy. Why is this such a sensitive subject? Or maybe its me, but why is it so hard to preach on? What about to you? Think about it for a ...read more
