What a let down

Jesus disappointed people. Does that surprise you? I’m not talking about the obvious, as in the religious leaders, Pharisees, Saducees, Zealots, etc. I’m talking about His own followers. To me that’s just mind bending. No one has ever done more for others, been more servant minded and shown more love and mercy than Jesus Christ. […]

Stand up for Jesus

There was an old hymn we used to sing (when I was a child) at church with these words. Well, actually, it went, “Stand up, stand up for Jesus, ye soldiers of the cross.” Not sure that would connect with people today but it will always be special for me. You see, we live in […]

Update

Have you seen the progress on our new building?! This thing is going up at light speed! And not a moment too soon. The increase in crowds has gone on ever since Easter and shows no signs of letting up. The building might help motivate but I don’t think that’s it. I think it’s life […]

A Fatal Dissconnect – Part 1

I’m in Matthew right now in my quiet time. Even the genealogies of the Bible are worth reading, so I hope you don’t breeze right past these things. For instance, isn’t it baffling how such wicked kings in the Bible could grow up with such godly examples for fathers and still blow it?! Or visa-versa? […]
