I’m Just Asking
Do you mind if I ask some questions? Reading my Bible this morning, my thoughts seemed to lock in on Barnabas, the Infant Body of Christ, the significance and value of relationships in the Body, and how all that affects our present day Body. How do we compare with our “Baby Pictures”? So, if you…

The Network
Network. What does the word “network” mean to you? Anything? Everything? Nothing? It’s really developed into a big thing over the last dozen years or so. The word has a variety of definitions with a common theme “tying” them all together. The common theme is “connecting”. Connecting various parts, people, purposes, and whatever to form…

The Church – God’s Ark For The World
In Noah’s day, mankind had repeatedly violated and shunned God’s plan for man. The Lord decided there had to be a change; He could no longer allow such wickedness to continue in the earth. If there was to be the fulfilling of Genesis 3:15, God would have to intervene to protect the future promise. He…

“Drop Kick Me Jesus…”
“Drop kick me Jesus…” A cute little song by Bobby Bare. God NEVER intended for His people to barely make it through this life and into the next, without a testimony of His power and victory evident in their life. “For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His…

The Master Plan… my short story
It was a dark and dreary night, which seemed to last a lifetime. In fact, it was lasting a lifetime. The first 20 years of my life. Darkness and chaos describe my early years. Oh, sure, there were glimpses of light and order, hope and joy, now and then. But dreariness described my life as…
