“Look it up!” Oh, how I hated that phrase. I usually responded with, “Come on, just tell me the answer!” This became much of my lifelong attribute. It’s a practice I see all too often today. Good people, so busy with no time to “search” or “seek” the truth. People coming to church with a …

God School: “Cling”
It’s the dark of the night…you are alone…the storm winds are blowing…what do you do? This is life! We can find ourselves out at sea on a small boat…sitting in a hospital room…sitting in a courtroom…or staring at unpaid bills. But eventually everyone will find themselves in the dark, lonely place. As I was preparing …
Law of The Farm: Part 1
God is so cool. He really made life simple. We make life complicated. His life strategies go all the way back to the farm, The Garden of Eden. After “He created” the Garden and man, He “took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and keep it.” Genesis 2:15. Principle …
What Will 2026 Be Like?
Some see storms, floods, destruction, and loss. And others see bright, warm, sunny days. What do you see? In reality, it will be some of both. But at the core, how we deal with both will be determined by what our heart tells us. Proverbs 23:7 says, “For as he thinks in his heart, so …
“If I Had More Time I Would…”
What would you do if you had more time? May I suggest studying God’s Word?

Disappointed…
Have you ever had someone let you down? Maybe it’s the person in a position who could help you but didn’t. These people begin showing up early in our lives on the playground at school, then at work, at church, of course politics, and even at home. As I write I begin to remember people …
The Choice…
The BSF study of Revelation has been incredible. Amid the mystery, the unanswered questions, the terrible wrath that awaits unbelievers and the Glory of God, one of my discussion brothers crystalized it all this morning. “We have a choice of who we serve, Him (Jesus) or me.” As I look back on my life, I …
Lighthouse Moments…
Every Sunday morning as we walk into our Sunday School Classroom, we are Blessed with a profound phrase written on the whiteboard. They are incredibly timely and direct. Sometimes it connects with our lesson, sometimes it connects to the Pastor’s message, but every time, it connects. My dear friend, Jason, writes the whispers, or ideas, …
