Just because we are in somewhat “ordinary” situations does not mean God has not revealed himself. Pay attention to where and how God is revealing himself, even in the unexpected places.

Therefore, since we have such a hope, we are very bold.” We are on week 5 of a 12 week time of prayer and study for revival and awakening. ThisContinue reading “Journey to Revival Week 5”
It’s About Kingdom Building
Click here to read Acts 23. Paul is in a heap of trouble here. It seems the message of the gospel has touched a raw nerve with everyone he comes in contact with. Everyone, that is, except the Roman centurions watching set to watch over the apostle in chains. In one of his letters toContinue reading “It’s About Kingdom Building”
I Believe in the Relator God
Ancient Creed, Living Faith Blog Series Part 1 I invite you to take time to read the scriptures today. “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” (Genesis 1:1) The Parable of the Lost Son (Luke 15:11-32) Jesus continued: “There was a man who had two sons. The younger one said to his father, ‘Father, give me myContinue reading “I Believe in the Relator God”
Life Lived for Christ
Max Lucado says, “think what you think about.” One of the things I appreciate about this is that is forces us to think about why we do the things that we do. Our life is supposed to show our love of God and love of people. Jesus said in John 13, “everyone will know youContinue reading “Life Lived for Christ”
Peace of God
The hustle and bustle of the Christmas season will bring even the best of us to out wits end. We hear the story of Christ being born; yet we go about our busy lives as if nothing has changed. There are so many things to worry about. The media doesn’t help. God is with usContinue reading “Peace of God”
God’s Invading
Last week, a New York newspaper ran a headline that said, “God is not fixing this,” in response to the shootings that happened in San Bernardino, CA. The article was saying that something has to be done and people can’t “hide” behind meaningless phrases – more specifically, “my thoughts and prayers with with…” When weContinue reading “God’s Invading”
Wilderness & Crooked Paths
Advent is a season we prepare our hearts and lives for the coming of the Christ child and anticipate His return. As we look into the process of preparing our lives, we can see how crooked and off the path we have gotten at times. It seems to be human nature to look after onlyContinue reading “Wilderness & Crooked Paths”
Proclaiming God’s Forgiviness
We have several topics of conversation during the Christmas holidays. We’ll talk of love, family, weather (good or rough), relationships, parties, gifts, etc. Our conversations are around the goodness of the season. Yet, this is one of the most stressful times of the year. During this season, it seems we are more likely to beContinue reading “Proclaiming God’s Forgiviness”
John the Baptist
John the Baptist is one of my favorite biblical characters because he definitely stands out and people take notice of him. He is memorable, not only of his message, but of his clothing and food choices. Though the Gospel of Luke does not mention him wearing camel’s hair and eating locusts and wild honey, MatthewContinue reading “John the Baptist”
