Life, Our Most Treasured Possession
Reflecting on John 1:3-5 John doesn’t claim any certain method. He doesn’t give us a timeline of origins. He simply claims that all things came into being through Him, the Word, and apart from Him nothing that exists came into being. Consider, again, the Genesis 1 account. In the beginning God created the heavens and…

Thanksgiving Pt. 1
14 We urge you, brethren, admonish the unruly, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with everyone. 15 See that no one repays another with evil for evil, but always seek after that which is good for one another and for all people (1…

On Evaluating a Sermon
I know. It sounds really unspiritual to say we would ever evaluate someone’s sermon. If we are to follow Jesus, we need to know if what we hear from people is, in fact, from Him. It is not bad to think well about what we hear from the pulpit. There is good preaching. There is…

Church Revitalization is not a Bad Word
Whether in church or personal life, we all need seasons of revitalization. Our temptation, though, is to pretend nothing is wrong and conduct business as usual because, if things change, we may look like we failed in our endeavors. I have a reminder for you: The results were never ours to boast about in life…

Personal Revival in Psalm 119: Thinking About What It Means to Feel Alive Again
The worship of our lives is seeking after God’s ways rather than our own. We learn that God’s ways are better because our ways typically cause great hardship and tribulation. God forgives us for living by our own ways and bringing such destruction on ourselves and his earth. He shows his lovingkindness to thousands of…

Developing True and Good Relationships: Wisdom from Proverbs 27
Today, I begin a new series about different types of relationships as they are described in the Bible. Truthfully, the entire Bible is about relationships. I have chosen to look at Proverbs 27 to see what wisdom Solomon has for us concerning the relationships we have. Everyone we know was at one time a stranger…

Seeing the Kingdom of Heaven
Have you ever seen God? Some of you will answer by telling me how you see God working or how you see God in nature or people. Those things are not God Himself. I will venture to guess that you have never seen God. Yet, we believe He is. A vast majority of people on…

It’s Been A While, But I’m Finally in a Healthy Frame of Mind
Hurt is hard. I realized in the last month that it has been more than a year since I have done any serious writing. I had given up on ministry and started my own business because, frankly, I was done being hurt. At the beginning of 2023, a friend of mine (a couple, actually) told…

Ordination- Exodus 29:1-9
Aaron and his sons are ordained for their priestly ministry. The phrase translated as ordain, here (ומלאת יד–אהרן ייד–בניו), literally means to fill the hand of Aaron and his sons. The earliest mention of a type of ordination by the people of anyone to any kind of ministry in Scripture literally means that through ordination,…

The Law Given for Our Good- Exodus 20:22-26
God acknowledges that the people were able to see His manifestations and know that God is the one giving the commands. Moses is not manipulating them. God repeats His command for the people not to make idols and worship them. He even gives some interesting instruction concerning an altar for sacrifices. It is not to…
