How I Treat My Friends

I read through the Bible every year, and I believe I’ve done the following about three times out of the ten or twelve at this point. In the middle of Leviticus, when most people are completely checked out, there’s this gem: “Now if a man loses the hair of his head, he is bald; heContinue reading “How I Treat My Friends”

The Blessings of the Internet

It used to be that, if you wanted to fit in and have a conversation with a normal person, that you needed to know things about the world. You would have needed to have read the most recent books, watched the most recent movies, and kept up with the most recent sports events, etc. WithoutContinue reading “The Blessings of the Internet”

Get the Big Picture

I spent so much of my time when I was a young Christian going deep into the specifics of the Bible passages I was studying. After all, that’s what I saw my pastors doing every week from the pulpit. I was likely inept and diving into certain things in an unhealthy way. I’m sure youContinue reading “Get the Big Picture”

The Truest Verse in the Bible

A quick caveat: the whole Bible is breathed out by God and therefore true. I mean something different, I hope you see that. Do you spend energy to hear the other side of someone’s story? You should. I often find that one person, through no fault of their own, will tell a very different storyContinue reading “The Truest Verse in the Bible”

Bravery Begins at the Dinner Table

I made up this slogan sometime last year to motivate my son to eat the food on his plate (his sisters don’t have this problem). It’s shown a little success (not as much as other methods), but I still think the phrase is fantastic and I repeat it often. James chapter three talks about theContinue reading “Bravery Begins at the Dinner Table”

A Man Skilled in His Work

“Do you see a man skilled in his work?He will stand before kings;He will not stand before obscure men.” Proverbs 22:29 I got frustrated with myself this week. Consider this post as bread, fresh from the oven. I learn things in real time, too. I’ve been infatuated with the idea of being a pastor sinceContinue reading “A Man Skilled in His Work”

On the Sabbath

I don’t want to get into the nitty gritty on what’s allowed or not allowed on the Sabbath. I do believe there IS a sabbath however, and that’s what I’d like to type about this week. I became convinced of the existence of the Sabbath about a decade ago. At the time, I was treatingContinue reading “On the Sabbath”

Live Like It’s True

I spent 18 years as a non-Christian. My formative years were spent in darkness, though I did have much light. I was taught to work hard, to treat others with respect, and to do many things myself. I am very grateful for the upbringing I had under my parents. They weren’t perfect, and they stillContinue reading “Live Like It’s True”

Some Things Should be Hard

Like Math. There are a lot of things in life that are really hard for me (and you, I’m sure). We all want to avoid things that make our lives difficult. That’s the nature of the fall. Adam and Eve ran and hid themselves from the Omniscient. It wasn’t going to work. Adam heard this:Continue reading “Some Things Should be Hard”

The Charlie Kirk Memorial

I don’t plan to do many current events, but I did have a thought that I perceived to be helpful in the analysis of the Charlie Kirk Memorial. It comes from a very old author, highly regarded. He’s quoted below: “Now I want you to know, brothers, that my circumstances have turned out for theContinue reading “The Charlie Kirk Memorial”
