A Vacation from God

One of my favorite authors is Jon Acuff—He makes things memorable by making them flat out hilarious! Yesterday he wrote a blog post about a subject that’s frustrated me for years… Why do so many Christians take Church off during the Summer. Read it. You’’ll laugh, but don’t laugh too hard.

Covering so much material in our final lesson yesterday was tough—therefore, I want to take this week to add a few things that time wouldn’t allow me […]

Sunday Evening Mind Dump

We ended our nearly 2 year long journey through the gospel of John today. I love this gospel—to me it is the most personal of the four and most vividly displays Christ’s love and grace toward man. My own love and relationship with Jesus has deepened due to the study of this great book. Sorry […]
