    The Gift Of Amnesia. James 1:22-25AMP Amnesia could be a gift to those who would like to forget the last 5 or 10 years, maybe even the last day or two. Only bad thing about that is, you might just do it all again. Lol. For every believer, Amnesia isn’t a gift at ...read more

     | 7,236 views

    Through Ezekiel the Prophet, God provides a certain destiny and purpose of the modern Christian church and most of us will probably be surprised to hear it.

     | 6,530 views

    Churches and preachers may have told you in the past that if you don’t put God first you might be in sin. I want to tell you that nowhere in the Bible it says that if you don’t put God first you are committing a sin…oh what a relief! The bad news is that

    Matthew 6:33 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. How are your priorities organized? Are you seeking love first? Money first? Kids first? Hobbies first? Churches and preachers may have told you in the past that if you don’t ...read more

    Colossians 1:15-28. "Reconciled" INTRODUCTION I did quite a bit of traveling this past week, in parts of this country with which I was unfamiliar. Thankfully, I knew where I needed to go, and I had my trusty GPS "Gidget" to show me the way. I can't imagine what a mess I would have been in ...read more

    Pure Worship

    Sometimes we want to put our worship of God in a box that we only break out on Sunday mornings. Worship, however, is much bigger than that.

    I grew up in what I would consider, lower middle class. In the schools I went to as a kid there were really 3 levels of kids when it came to income. You had the rich kids. These kids had a Playstation AND N64, which were big when I was kid. They had huge houses and a TV in every room. Then you had ...read more

    Ordinary Proper 19: We face an uphill battle as we consider the challenge of getting our tongue - our speech - under control. But that is precisely what St. James exhorts us to do!

    Words matter - they matter a lot. In order to uncover the processes that destroy unions, marital researchers studied couples over the course of years, and even decades, and retraced the star-crossed steps of those who had split up back to their wedding day. What they discovered is unsettling. None ...read more

    Modern ‘Profits’ are always quick to point out they 'prophesied' a current event before it happened

    I previously gave a message entitled “Does God Give Ministry Mulligans When Prophecy is Wrong?” As a non-cessationist, I am saddened, but not surprised, to say that there continue to be genuine Bible academics who are making myopic and poor apologetic attempts to rationalize and justify the ...read more

    We spend 2.5 days a year looking for lost items like the TV remote. The prophet Isaiah helps us see what important daily quest we should undertake.

    According to a 2017 survey by Pixie, a company that furnishes technology to locate lost items, Americans spend the equivalent of 2.5 days a year looking for misplaced items.
