If anyone thinks that the church today is as strong as ever, they need to take a step back and re-evaluate things. Many today think that everything in the church, and in their lives is going just fine and nothing is wrong. It’s just the world that is crazy. They think we’re doing good and […]

What The World Says, What The Word Says
We’re living in times when the world is yelling at the top of its lungs. It’s yelling at all of us. It’s yelling at us from the TV, the radio, on the web, and now at every business we enter (if we’re allowed to enter it). And if we’re not, we’re being yelled at about […]
Why The Pandemic Happened
As we all sit at home, go about our daily lives in a way that none of us have ever known, the thought might have crossed someone’s mind as to how in the world did this happen? And of course when that comes, we find someone to blame. We blame China, or the world leaders, […]
Is God Really Fighting For You?
There’s been a few different songs popping up in worship services across the country, and on the radio that declare that God is fighting for us. They’re harmonizing how the battle is the Lord’s. But let me asking you this, “Do you believe that?” Do you really believe that the Lord is fighting for you? […]
The Humanistic Church
Note: Don’t stop reading if you get mad, or disagree, or think I’m a nut. Many times we tune people out because of such things and we fail to learn the things God wants us to learn, even if it’s not through the words that are actually spoken or written. If we look at the […]
The Voice Activated Life
Technology has changed a lot in the past few years, and it’s changed quickly. We have all sorts of things that would amaze people just ten, fifteen, twenty year ago. We have face recognition software, voice recognition software, and voice activation software. We have Siri, Cortana, Alexa, and Google Assistant that listens, hears, and does […]
What is the Love of God?
What is the love of God? That is a good question that has at its root the consequences of eternity. So many people today like to use the argument “you’re not loving like Jesus” or “aren’t you supposed to love like God loves?” Or “that’s not the love of Christ.” Some even say that Christians […]
Do We Really Desire God’s Will?
There’s not a single Christian alive that wouldn’t say, on the surface at least, that they don’t want the will of God for their life. The majority of Christians would say that they want the plan of God for their life. After all, God’s plans are greater than any plan that we could ever come […]
Don’t Let The Devil Tell You How To Be A Christian – Part 2
If you haven’t yet, check out Part 1 of this series here. There’s a commercial that comes on the radio around every Valentine’s Day where I live. It’s the same year after year. There’s a voice-over guy that tells us that ‘if your wife or sweetie says that you don’t have to get them anything […]
The First Casualties In The Christian Church (and what we can learn from them)
But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession. And he kept back part of the proceeds, his wife also being aware of it, and brought a certain part and laid it at the apostles’ feet. But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy […]
