they know not what they do.
Yesterday was a wonderful Sunday! I have the privilege to get to attend two services over the weekend. A church in Texas and a church in Colorado. Technology is wonderful! The church in Colorado is teaching 1 Corinthians. Yesterday’s message was over part of 1 Corinthians 6. You can see…

the voice.
Yesterday I was joyful to share that Jesus, the Good Shepherd, knows our name. We as sheep, know him by His voice. Anything else that speaks to us through the spirit, is a stranger and we should run and scatter from that voice. As Christians, we need to get very…

transformation of weaknesses
Yesterday I had the opportunity to sit with my oldest daughter. We were waiting on her fiance’s family to all arrive. They are taking a two week vacation to Florida. I was driving part of them in her finance’s car to the airport and returning his car to their home…

freedom with small print
Have you ever really read the fine print on a prescription. Makes you wonder, with all those possible side effects, why am I taking this to begin with. I believe a lot of truth from God’s Word comes with small print we like to gloss over. One of these truths…

the most insidious net
Can I ask you an honest question? If your entire life story, ALL of it, your secrets and all, was played out on a big screen for the entire world to see, how would that make you feel? What was your response just now? I believe it was either a…

the net.
When we think of a net, twenty years ago, we would have been thinking about a hair net or maybe a fishing net. In today’s world, we almost automatically think of the world wide web, or as we call it, the net. The internet. I came across an interesting verse…
