Who is Jesus. Better yet, who does God the Father say that Jesus is? In Mark 1 we see an image of Jesus being baptized by His cousin John. This is one of only two instances where we see the entire Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) in the same place at the same time. […]
IN
IN The “in” thing is whatever is fashionable or whatever is being talked about. Memes, videos, mom jeans, music…..we are drawn to what is “IN.” Recently at my church, I heard two different sermons (thanks, Jeff and Dennis!) involving Romans 8:1 “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” Reading […]
Surrender
Hello, friends. Let us pray. Oh Heavenly Father, you bring us life after death. You are all-knowing and all-loving. Please give me words for you and allow those words to help other people in any way that suits you. Thank you for the time you give me and all the things you’ve let me live […]

So Help You God?
“So Help You God?” This week, news headlines tell of lawmakers proposing to remove the words “so help you God” from the oath that witnesses are required to take before providing testimony at the House Committee.

Praying in Church I pray in church. A strange statement to admit. After all, that is normal. Praying in church is expected as part of our corporate worship experience. We often take prayer for granted – it’s beauty and it’s power. On our own, we whisper a prayer in distress but often fail to […]
God is Love
Hello, friends. Welcome to the blog! It’s hard to start a one-sided discussion cold-turkey, so I suppose the best way to begin a Christian blog is to state what Christianity means to me. God is love. He is the creator of the universe and He adores all of His creation. Christianity is living a life […]
It’s Over
So that’s it, the election is over, the new President of the United States is announced and soon the discussion will subside; soon we will be able to resume our “funny cat video” binge watching, baby picture posting, and “hilarious pick up line” sharing social media experience. Some “won” in this election and some lost, […]
Piece by Piece
In our culture it isn’t unlikely to hear of absent fathers or to have experienced it first hand. It’s not uncommon to hear that most people live without a dad or if they have one they were less than ideal. Even though our circumstances may be different it is something that we all see on […]
Who is God Calling You to Be?
After the crucifixion of Jesus the bible tells us that many of the disciples seemed to have lost hope and returned to the lives they had left behind. It’s arguable that Peter had felt the worst after His death, I mean after all Peter had denied his walk with Jesus not once but three times! […]
