    We all face major life decisions, and making those decisions are never easy. So how do we go about making them?

    2nd Week of Lent Genesis 15:1-18 It seems that the older I get the more life decisions I am faced with making. When I was younger my life decisions included what was I going to be when I grew up? Or, what college would I attend in order to pursue my chosen career path. At that time those decisions ...read more

    Galatians 3:23-29 (NLT) 23 Before the way of faith in Christ was available to us, we were placed under guard by the law. We were kept in protective custody, so to speak, until the way of faith was revealed. 24 Let me put it another way. The law was our guardian until Christ came; it protected us ...read more

    There is an unbroken connection between the law of the Old Testament and the law of the New. That connection is the will of God to make us happy.

    Monday of 1st week of Lent There is an unbroken connection between the law of the Old Testament and the law of the New. That connection is the will of God to make us happy.

    Allow me to start with a well-known and (may be poor) joke about marriage. You all know about the three rings of marriage right, It starts with the engagement ring, it gets solemnized with the wedding ring and then continues with… suffering. Right? Leslie and I of course have the privilege of ...read more

    The Lord said through Jeremiah that the heart is deceitful above all things and Jesus said blessed are the pure in heart? Can both be true. Can the Lord change one into the other?

    A few sweet words and a little bit of kindness can coax the hottest iron out of a fire. So it is with gratitude. Let’s examine this truth together in Lukes story of the ten lepers!

    Introduction I read recently of the story of the man who was betrayed by one he thought was his best friend. He went to him and asked, "How could you do this to me? Who picked you up out of the gutter? Who gave you your first job? Who lent you money and bailed you out of jail!" His reply was, ...read more

    The truly repentant one knows where the problem is. It’s in his own mind, which he bows down to the Almighty, and in his heart, which he beats as he prays.

    Saturday of the 3rd Week in Lent 2023 When we read the Gospel passage that looks into the minds and hearts of the Pharisee and the tax collector, we see two entirely different ideas of sin and repentance.
