    We treat God’s Word as an ’all you can eat’ buffet. We take some of it in -- but we ignore the rest.

    When I was in college, there was a restaurant that we loved to go to. It was an all you could eat type of place, which explains why I look the way I look today. We would go and stand in line in the buffet and pick all those things we wanted to eat -- shrimp, crab, clams, hushpuppies, French ...read more
