A Matter Of Faith
I recently asked my Facebook friends “Is the devil real – yes or no?”. Overwhelmingly their response was yes. Okay. Does that mean the devil IS real? No. Public opinion doesn’t make a thing true or false. If YOU asked YOUR Facebook friends the same question, yours might respond in a different way. Back to…

Hiding Behind God
Every so often I read or hear a statement that really trips my trigger. And I just bet you do, as well. I recall hearing someone recently say, “Christians are always hiding behind their God.” Isn’t it amazing? Like, is there anything wrong with that? Everyone uses someone or something to hide behind. It may…

The Closet
It seems like the world is all geared up for house cleaning. Do you know what I mean? When I was a teenager, my little brother, who is nine years younger, had a messy closet. From time to time I had the chore of “helping” him clean it out. You wouldn’t believe the things we’d…

A Timely Word
“For it is time for judgment to begin at the household of God; and if it begins with us, what will be the outcome for those who do not obey the gospel of God?” (1 Peter 4:17 ESV) You may say, “Peter wrote that letter a long time ago. It doesn’t pertain to this day…

If you’d asked them a year earlier, “Do you ever see yourself doing thus and so?”, like stealing, raping, cheating on their spouse, or even murdering, they would’ve undoubtedly answered, “No way!” But today they’ll do it. Brand new sexual addictions…

What’s Wrong With This Country?
“Long may our land be bright, with freedom’s holy light, protect us by thy might, great God our King.” This is a word for people who want to blame all of our country’s woes on everyone but themselves. I will say up front I don’t think every person in each of the groups I’ve listed…

The Lot Affect
With all of the chitchat going on about gay rights and such, I thought it would be nice if we could have a little discussion about a guy who lived years ago, surrounded by an extremely wicked culture. I’m referring to Lot; Abraham’s nephew. Through the years Lot has taken a lot of abuse…

Mister Big
In my sixty years of living on this blue orb we call Earth, I’ve met just a few people I’d describe as big. I mean BIG. Of course, there are different ways of measuring people. When I was in grade school I met a man known as the Wilson Giant. He was skinny and 8′…
