Several times during the last few weeks I have heard people make the statement, “The Lord is coming back soon!” The emphasis was always on the “soon”.
It makes me wonder, What are we doing about it? I mean, shouldn’t we be winessing even more? Shouldn’t witnessing to the lost be as normal as going [...]

Is This All There Is?

I did not stop living my life in the light of the resurrection after Easter had passed.
I try to challenge my thinking, my theology, and my lifestyle every day. And, in doing that, I am forced to ask myself tough questions in my desire to be introspective and ultimately better at what I have been [...]

“What If”
What If… This is the time of New Beginnings for me? New beginnings for me, my loved ones, my family and neighbors?
What If I make Jesus Christ my Lord? LORD OF ALL!
What If, This is the day that I really dedicate my life to Jesus?
What If, I stop looking [...]
“Truth Detectors”

You know … lying is such a common, accepted part of our culture.
I read some statistics recently. A USA Today poll showed that only 56% of American parents teach honesty to their children! Not long ago a noted physician appeared on a network news-and-talk show and proclaimed, “Lying is an important part of social [...]
What does it mean to knock?
Posted in Uncategorized on April 17, 2009 | 1 Comment »
We ask because we understand God has unlimited resources;
We seek because we know His abiding presence will help us find;
And we knock because we’re certain He’s home, just on the other side of the door.
What does it mean to knock?
Knocking is a noise-making experience. It alerts someone that you want attention.
Awhile [...]
365 Days Ago

It was one year ago today that the doctor at the Veteran’s Hospital Urgent Care unit announced that I had lung cancer. Needless to say, that news came as a real shocker to me , and then to my wife and family. I told the church on the following Sunday and it goes without saying that they were [...]

I am totally amazed an delighted by the incredible response that we had for our Easter egg hunt today. There were a number of dedicated volunteers who came to help us hide eggs and the supervise the children while they went on the hunt. More than fifteen hundred eggs were hidden and then found when the [...]
I Saw God Working Today

I love it when I see God working!
Once again I have seen a miracle. The same doctor (a very good cardiologist with a great reputation) who told us a few days ago that there was damage to the wall of the heart caused by the heart attack told me today that there is no damage, [...]
Attack!

Strange how things seem to sneak up on you sometimes. I am moving along trying to dot all the i’s and cross all the t’s keeping up with an already crazy schedule and then, just that quick, Sandy has a heart attack.
What? It’s another one of those things that I didn’t expect because those kinds [...]
I’m Standing on the Rock

Jesus said that if we want to follow him we must deny ourselves, and take up our cross daily, and follow him.
If we are going to be the church that stands in the gap, then it is not going to happen in one day,
one revival, one month, or even one year.
I am going [...]
