Potty Mouth Christians
I almost hate to use “potty mouth” and “Christians” at the same time; and I wouldn’t if it wasn’t true. Unfortunately, it is true. Some Christians have potty mouths. Maybe I should say, some “so-called Christians” have potty mouths. Before you get mad and quit reading, I do not mean that anyone who has…

Is Our Faith Pleasing To God?
Something hit me last night, while I was listening to the eleventh chapter of Hebrews. Something I had read myself many times, yet had never thought about it like I did last night.

Church Babysitting?
There are tens of thousands of pastors in this great land we call America. Thousands of men and women who desire to feed the flock of God faithfully, and someday hear the Lord say, “Well done, good and faithful servant. Enter into the joy of the Lord.” Pastors, I praise God for your caring…

Prejudiced Thoughts
Every so often I get bummed by things the Lord shows me about my life. Today was one of those days. I’m sure others have seen imperfections in my life, but usually people can’t read my mind. So I can do the right things, you know, the acceptable things, and seemingly get by with thoughts…

How Can I Know My Future?
I’ve noticed some Facebook posts advertising a way to find out what’s going to happen in 2016. Other posts give you a special word for the coming year. I probably wasn’t supposed to, but I did that one twice. My first word was FUTURE. The second one was JOY. I’m not sure what I’m…
