    Like Elijah, sometimes we feel utterly defeated (as I did by the shootings in Charleston and Chattanooga) but God remains with us through these times.

    When I left on Sabbatical, I had Charleston on my mind. As I drove to North Carolina, it was on my mind. I tried to avoid newspapers and newscasts, but it was still on my mind. Through much of the Wild Goose Festival, we talked openly about violence and “isms.” I wasn’t home ...read more

    If there is not a balance within the Christian life, we can become off kilter, like a washing machine with the clothes off balance, it makes a lot of noise, but it’s not cleaning your clothes properly.

    Something that we all have in common is that we all have to fight the battle of discouragement.

    Most of us will admit that we have lost that battle at times. However, some are more easily discouraged than others. 1. Some get discouraged with their jobs and quit them, only to later regret it. 2. Some get discouraged with their churches and quit them, only to later regret it. 3. Some get ...read more

    Our God Is A Consuming Fire

     | 8,596 views

    When I read this in the bible I got excited that we have a God that loves us and His love for us will consume with His fire anything in us that will not let us live a godly life.

    We can never imagine that our God can be a consuming fire. But the book of Hebrews records this in chapter 12 verse 29 that Our God is indeed a Consuming Fire Hebrews 12:29 Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably ...read more

     | 3,380 views

    Elijah was a mighty man of God. He stood like a stone wall against idolatry, and he was not afraid to speak truth to power or tell the people what they needed to hear.

    February 11, 2023 The bible tells us Elijah was from the town of Tishbe, but we don’t anything about his background or who his parents were. His name means, “Yahweh is my God,” and he certainly lived up to his name, standing in sharp contrast against the idolatry of the day. His primary ...read more
