    If God calls the weak, base and foolish, why do we bow at the altars of education and celebrities?

    We live in an age of the celebrity. What celebrities say influences the minds of a vast majority of people. The celebrity may not have any real wisdom about what they are speaking to, but many will follow their ideas as if they were geniuses or gods/goddesses That makes me think of King ...read more

    No one is worthy of the Love of God. He made us worthy when he put his son on the cross, when he put our sins and their penalties upon Jesus, and when he took the righteousness of Christ and put it on us.

    In life there are so many different forces pulling on us. We are pulled one way by fear, and another by self-righteousness. But thank God that the Cross is always at the center, and nothing is more powerful than the pull of God’s mercy and grace.

    Dumb Dogs Series

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on May 14, 2013
     | 8,111 views

    Jesus is not impressed with the outward trappings of self-righteousness. He is impressed with a heart full of simple faith, which we find most often in the hearts of those we least expect. So like Jesus feed the "dogs" and touch the "dumb."

    Dumb Dogs (Mark 7:24-37) I like this thought posted by Mike Atkinson in his daily email humor list some time ago.
