Questioning the Sanity of Humanity
God has a plan for our cultural sanity. The sanity of humanity is called into question daily. Maybe it is through our isolation and reemergence that we will begin to better understand God’s plan. Possibly, clearing our calendars and separating ourselves from others has the potential to open our eyes to look at life a…
Rushing to Taste
Much is being written and discussed on the airwaves these days about the fast pace of life we have grown accustomed to. Epic bestsellers like John Mark Comer’s “The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry” speak to our desperate need to slow down. I have no doubt that all of this rushing to accomplish everything on “our…
Save Joshua House
This week I did something I have never done before, and I am so glad I did. After hearing about the plans to close Joshua House on the news, I was livid. Having volunteered at Joshua House and seen first hand the results of the work accomplished there I was compelled to take action in…
Prophecy in the Ages of Silence
Have you ever heard the phrase “History is written by the victors.”? Revisionist history is a fact. The basis for it is at the root of our human condition. Everyone has an opinion. Everyone will go to great lengths to defend that opinion, and those in power, church or state, have the power to publish that opinion for posterity as fact. This was true in the ancient world and is true today, so we must look at history from a spiritual perspective if we hope to uncover the Truth that God wants us to see.
The Changing Face of Web Ministry
Web Ministry – The Humble Beginnings Back in the day… well actually not that long ago, the internet was new and we marvelled at how cool it was to be able to email instead of snail mail. At first it was small businesses that kick started personal use of computers, but as personal computers became…
Give Generously, It Matters
I think we can all agree that God deserves our first fruits, but if we are anything like the “average church goers” in the US, most of us fall short of the biblical tithe by 6% to 7%. What would we actually have to give up, to give 1%, 2%, or 3% more? Considering all that God has given us, would it really be that tough for us to find say $15 a week more for Him?
Define Better
What Color or Race are Gods Chosen People?
This all started several days ago when my facebook friend, Gary Ellison, made a bold post. We don’t see eye to eye on everything, but we are brother and sister in the Lord and have had some very good and edifying conversation. His post generated a thread of 409 comments (so far), as many passionate believers debated their views. So here is the post that started it all.
Electronic Gossip
Upon close examination, you will find that much of the seemingly well intended email you receive is filled with gossip, rumors, and lies. It is designed to make masses of people believe something that is not true, and as surely as Satan is laughing at how easy we are to fool, it is working to dumb our society down into little more than sheeple who will follow anyone that speaks what they want to hear with more than a little charisma. (I am tempted, but I won’t name names.)
The Biblical Model For Sustainable Living
While the common man has dreamed of a utopian society that could be achieved via a plethora of isms (capitalism, socialism, communism, and so on), that utopia has never been achieved due to mans corruption of the ideals of whatever ism is in place.
