    Babylon is more than a ancient land mentioned in the Bible. Babylon is anywhere we as believers don't belong. It is being held captive by the devil.

In other words, we really don't belong here in Babylon. We are aliens here. We are refugees here. We are ...read more

    As part of a family of faith, Christians need to realize that we can be honest with God and with one another about just how difficult life can sometimes be.

    Pretending Everything is Okay / Psalm 137 Proper 22, Year C; Downsville Baptist Church; 7 October 2001 One of the biggest grievances that I presently hold against many churchgoers is the notion that it is important that we act like everything is just fine in our lives even when it is not. ...read more
