Drinking and dancing. Now, those topics could “open a can of worms” as we like to say here in the south. And here,in the south,in the Bible Belt,…we’ve known since we’ve known much of anything, that Baptists don’t drink and some won’t even dance. Well, not in public anyways! But THE APOSTLE Paul says, “NoContinue reading “Drinking and Dancing…well sorta”

Hold on!
As I pick up my Bible again to I Timothy, here’s Timothy, he’s Paul’s prodigy. He’s wise beyond his years and well studied in the Scriptures. He is trusted with evangelizing and teaching in the early churches in Corinth and Thessalonica. Yet, Paul feels the need to warn Timothy with strong words, “I charge youContinue reading “Hold on!”
Hold on. Do you know who you are?
Do you know who you are? I’m not talking about some enneagram number or other test to help you discover yourself. No, this is powerful.This is supernatural.And it’s TRUE. If Jesus is your Savior, YOU are the church of the LIVING GOD, the pillar and ground of the truth. (1 Tim 3:15) As the churchContinue reading “Hold on. Do you know who you are?”

We long for position and power. And those in ministry are not immune. Book sales, social media likes, twitter followers, speakingContinue reading “Questions I’m asking myself”
We need TRUTH in this CRAZY world
I find myself shaking my head over and over. You too? It’s like the world has gone crazy, and all at once. Cities are being burned by rioters. And some in the media stand in front of the flames calling what’s happening “peaceful protests”. It seems we are being lied to about all kinds ofContinue reading “We need TRUTH in this CRAZY world”
Beware of those who twist Scripture for their own gain
Jesus walks into the temple and drives out those who were buying and selling there. (Luke 19:45-46) And many, who seldom talk about Scripture, point to these verses to justify the violence in our country associated with the Black Lives Matter movement rioting. But let’s not be so quick to fall for this. If weContinue reading “Beware of those who twist Scripture for their own gain”
