    Max Lucado once noted that sheep are dumb, defenseless and boring. Why would we want to be a sheep? The answer to that question says a lot about us and our relationship to God.

    OPEN: During Summer camp I remember hearing the following song: “I wanna be a sheep, baa baa I wanna be a sheep, baa baa I wanna be a sheep, baa baa I wanna be a sheep, baa baa” It went on to say “I don’t want to be a hypocrite… because they’re not hip with it” “I don’t want to be a Pharisee… ...read more

    “The secret of success is in the blocking and tackling. Focus on the blocking and tackling and everything else will come along.”

    It was something I should have learned in High School football. After all, I played tackle; it would have made my experience more meaningful if I knew it then. But I didn’t. It was a lot of years after high school; when I was in business and a mentor shared it with me. “The secret of success is in ...read more

    Knowledge of the Bible is essential for us to life fruitfully, and it is critical to pass on that knowledge to our children, for whom it can be made exciting.

    I’m glad they’ve brought "All in the Family" back on TV. I never did see what the fuss was, frankly, when it came out the first time. And now it still seems fresh and insightful and funny. To me, the best pieces of business in "All in the Family" are those scenes in which Edith starts out to ...read more

    Creation V Evolution Series

    A common question, frequently asked by people who have been indoctrinated with evolutionary concepts through school, higher education and the media is; ‘Should Christians believe in Evolution?’

    In many nations of the West, the Word of God was once widely respected and taken seriously. It’s still taken seriously in many nations in the southern hemisphere. But once the door of compromise was unlocked and Christian leaders conceded we shouldn’t take the Bible as written in Genesis, it ...read more

    This is week four of our stewardship month and this week we are looking at gospel accounts of people who gave to Christ.

    When people talk about their giving you will often hear them speak about giving to the church or giving to God and sometimes about their gift to Jesus. And those are all valid expressions. I do feel that we give to God through the church and that our giving is an expression of love and obedience ...read more
