    This world tries to honor, but it only seems to honor those who are great, those who gave to a great cause, or have done some great feat, but what about the rest?

It was beautiful and crowded. The thing that stood out to me was all the monuments. -They have monuments for honoring ...read more

    Paul is compelled to write these words to a church that needs to change. The challenge here today is doing an honest gut-check: do we live eternally for Christ – or for our own glory and recognition?

    No individual is meant to journey through this life alone. Solomon through the verse in Proverbs 27:17 stresses our need for one another by using swords sharpening one another as an example. Likewise Paul too advises through Hebrews 3:13 ;Hebrews 10:24-25

    The Blacksmith’s Work Imagine a blacksmith’s forge—the heat, the hammering, the sparks flying as two pieces of iron collide. The process is loud, intense, and sometimes uncomfortable, but the result is a razor-sharp edge. "Is not my word like fire, declares the LORD, and like a hammer ...read more

    It is not the high-powered executive, a celebrity or a prominent politician who receives honor in the eyes of God, but the Christian who lives for Christ and serves him.

In our fast-paced world, it is easy to continue doing what we have always done without pausing to consider if we need a change of direction. This is especially true in our spiritual lives, ...read more

    When we see God as weighty, we won’t want to take His name lightly.

    People get mixed up on my name all the time. Some people call me “Bill” and I’ve even been called “Brain,” though I’m not sure where that one comes from. When I’m called “Mr. Bill” people around my age think of his sidekick “Sluggo” and start laughing. I like to joke having three first names ...read more

    1) A house must be built by someone - Many people claim to be builders, few are craftsman. God makes it very clear that for our homes there is Only one true craftsman "the Lord”.
