  • What is Family Worship?

    What is Family Worship?

    When you hear, “Family Worship,” you probably think of a set time you might gather your family together to sing a song, hear a Bible lesson, and basically have a mini church service. That can be intimidating–especially if you don’t have much musical ability or have never “preached.” Well, I have some good news for…

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 12:1-13

    God instructs the Israelites to eat a passover lamb and spread its blood on their doorposts as a sign of redemption, a sign to the people. We know that God is going to smite the Egyptian firstborn (except for Pharaoh himself) about midnight of the night Moses left his presence for the final time (Genesis…

    Foul Mouths and Jesus’s Message

    “Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me,” is a lie. Words have, many times, done more damage than sticks and stones. There are some major sins that have to do with our words. As we have walked through the story in 1 Samuel the last couple of weeks, we…

    The Bible Series, Episode 1 Interaction

    Rewards and Sacrifice

    When I was little, it was such a sacrifice for me to clean my room. I was so busy all of the time. I had school. I had to play video games. I had to practice machine pitch in the evenings. My mom made me go to church. I had to eat dinner. There was…

  • What our world actually needs

    What our world actually needs

    In this world, we will give our lives to something. We will give our lives to education, to work, to family, to accomplishing our hopes and dreams. We might give our lives to our hobbies, to comfort, to money, to religion, to ideals or movements. We discovered previously that Christ actually desires that we be…

  • Why should I not date?

              I want to take a moment and observe dating culture in the western world. Especially among younger people, worth is perceived in the context of relationships. People see themselves as having more worth when they are connected to either the right people or to more people. Dating the “right person” or dating anyone at…

  • Spiritual Evil-Physical World

                We are all curious about the realm of spirituality. So curious, in fact, that one of our greatest forms of entertainment is highly dedicated to producing ghostly video images that cause us to jump each time the camera angle changes. Regardless of what we think about what is popularly referred to as the spiritual…
