Do You Know What You Should Know?
How much stock do you put in old expressions? Here’s one that’s often used: “What you don’t know can’t hurt you.” I suppose on rare occasions what you don’t know can’t affect you, but generally just the opposite is true. What you don’t know can hurt you, and probably will. The Lord, through the prophet…

How Long Must I Believe?
“I am so tired of waiting!” “If God is so good, and His promises never fail, why is it taking so long? How much longer must I believe?” Those are honest questions, don’t you think? I mean, really. I understand Rome wasn’t built in a day, but c’mon. Most people despise having to wait. They…

Does a lion roar in the forest?
Have you ever heard the roar of a lion? No, I’m not referring to Marlin Perkins’ old television show, “Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom”, which originally aired from 1963-1988. Have you heard the roar of a lion, up close and personal? I can’t recall hearing one, though the few times I’ve visited a zoo I’ve…

Do YOU Have A Healthy Smile?
I’ve heard it said, and maybe you have as well, that it takes more muscles to frown than to smile. Many people believe it, but there are some who emphatically don’t. Searching the Internet, I discovered quite an array of opinions. For example, there are those who believe the old adage, claiming it takes 43…

Tired, Worried, and On Edge
Sometimes I get tired, worried, on edge, maybe even a little scared. Yes, I’ll admit it. There are times I’m not the faith giant I like to let on that I am. It’s not that I’m trying to deceive anyone into thinking I’m something that I’m not; nor am I trying to kid myself into…

Church Of The Goofy Ideas
Have you ever stopped to think about God laughing? Here’s one instance: “but the Lord laughs at the wicked, for he sees that his day is coming.” (Psalm 37:13 ESV) I can imagine a few other things which may give God a chuckle. Like His church. Those leaders who are so caught up in titles…

What are YOU Drinking?
Is it barely possible that some of God’s people are guilty of idolatry? Yep, it is barely possible. Am I saying it’s somewhat possible that some of those called of God to be salt and light are drinking the cup of demons? Yep, it is somewhat possible. And is it remotely possible, I said remotely,…

The Spirit of Poverty
When people talk about poverty, they are usually referring to not having enough money to cover life’s necessities. If someone is living a life of poverty, they are living with barely enough to simply exist. Or maybe not enough. When I say we need to break the spirit of poverty, I’m not referring to a…

The Militia Problem
I’ve been thinking about this for some time, and I think I’ve finally gathered enough nerve to express my opinion, and my concern. Over the past few decades, the idea of an anti-government militia has been gaining ground. In some areas, it’s become more than an idea. Regional militias are forming, because the anger of…
