    Christians have been fighting the wrong battle with the wrong weapons and when they get a clue they do not empty their quiver

    This was written in 2017 and it would appear that I was correct. 2 Kings 13:14 Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness whereof he died. And Joash the king of Israel came down unto him, and wept over his face, and said, O my father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. ...read more

    Every thanksgiving there is an tradition of leaving an empty chair for an unexpected guessed. Jesus expects us to do that to the hungry, thirsty, to the prisoned one. We are to help the least, lonely, lost, leper, and the other.

    The story of Elisha and the widow with the pot of oil teaches us a lot about what Jesus did for us and what we are now called upon to do for the Kingdom of God. God wants to fill as many empty vessels as will come to him.

    The empty tomb is all the evidence we need to prove the central claim of Christianity: the resurrection of Jesus.

    There’s an old joke that people tell about cemeteries when they drive by: ‘How many people are dead in that one?’ the answer, of course, is “All of them.” It’s true, isn’t it? Tombs are for people who have died. The really important ones may be called sepulchres or mausoleums. Some of them are ...read more

A bright glowing light and bell goes off alerting me that I’d better stop ...read more

    Faith begins where human supply ends as God fills our emptiness with overflowing grace that turns survival into a testimony of life.

    Faith doesn’t always start with a shout. Sometimes it starts with an empty jar and a tired soul who whispers, “God, I don’t have much left.” That whisper was enough for one widow long ago—and it might be enough for you. There are moments when life drains us. You wake up one day and realize that ...read more
