Matthew Henry’s comment reminds me of something I always heard when I was growing up which was “If you lie down with dogs, then ...read more

    This message examines the meeting between Jesus and Nicodemus.

    What does it mean to be a disciple? Wait a second; let me be a little bolder with my question. Are you a follower of Jesus?

    Dealing with doubt when overcome by circumstance, a "crisis of faith." Reflective Christianity involves questioning what you believe while continuing to believe what you are questioning.

    “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief.” Most of us have said this at one time or another; We’ve hit a “crisis of faith” in which we waver in our self-confidence and in God’s ability to come to our aid. I went to college with Ed Dobson, an evangelical leader who is ...read more
