My family and I practice Karate as a family. We started it last year to get exercise and do something as a family and even though it’s tiring and we leave sore sometimes, it’s still great. One of the things about Karate, or any martial arts, is that there are different types of belt rankings. […]

Staying Christian When Christians Aren’t
There seems to be a growing increase of people leaving their faith behind and expressing their freedom from Christ, not their freedom in Christ. Of course it’s most prominently seen from Christian musicians (or “celebrities”), but they’re not alone. However, after listening to some of their reasons, I can totally understand their departure – based […]
How To Create An Atmosphere That Welcomes The Presence Of God
One of the greatest things in all the world is entering into the presence of God. Nothing compares with God’s presence, whether it is in a church service or in your bed room, or on the way to work or school. There’s nothing like it. Is it possible to create an atmosphere that is more […]
How The Gospel Was Preached
I remember years ago getting an email from a ‘ministry company’ that sold, among other things, sermon series for all different kinds of ministries. One of their “selling points” was that having a pre-made sermon series freed up your time so you could spend it on “more important” things like building relationships. While the thought […]
You’re Going To Hell Because You Didn’t Accept Jesus And You Dunk Your Fries In A Frosty
Yes, dipping your french fries in a Frosty – any kind of ice cream is uncalled for and the unpardonable sin. If you visit a Wendy’s and dare to combine those two items, the blood of Jesus can cover your sins, but not that sin. Sounds stupid, huh? Well, that’s because it is. But how […]
The Church Vs The Devil
After the Lord revealed to Dr. Kenneth E Hagin an attack the devil was wanting to bring against America, He told him, “You saw the same thing in 1970. I told you then exactly what they were, but you didn’t do what you should have done about it. I told you back in 1970 to […]
Giving Away Our Authority To Politicians
If you’re a Christian, pretend for a moment you’re not. Terrible thing, yes, but just pretend you aren’t and wrap your head around this thought: The government of a nation runs a nation. Politics and politicians run a nation. Now come back to the land of the living, as a Christian and think on that […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
