    God’s First Name Names are often meant to be descriptive or hopeful I really enjoyed the movie “Holes”. All the boys who were required to dig holes – 5 feet deep and 4 feet in diameter every day – were given some pretty interesting nicknames. Armpit, Barfbag, Zero, Caveman are just a few ...read more

    ADVOCACY AND FELLOWSHIP. 1 John 1:1-10; 1 John 2:1-2:2. The opening of the First Epistle of John is not unlike the famous Prologue of his Gospel (John 1:1-14). It too takes us back to “the beginning”, and introduces us to “the Word” - and it soon becomes clear that the Word is none other than ...read more
