- So . . . I'm "feeding myself" in the morning from God's Word and thought I'd post what I'm chewin' on and make my "food" available for others who might want to nibble a bit. Hope it's of some benefit to you . . .
The word of God is living and active . . . (Hebrews 4:12)

A Whole Heart, A Single Mind
I’m no soldier. I never marched in an infantry or rode in a cavalry. I’ve never shot any artillery nor flown over the enemy. But . . . Can you finish it? I’m in the Lord’s army . . . … Continue reading

Holding Fast to the Head

Kind of interesting to go back and read the following thoughts when, for many today, tithes are no longer given through the taking of a weekly offering, but more likely through the automated execution of a recurring online transaction. At … Continue reading

Which is Yours
Traveling again this week. This time in the mountains of Colorado. Again hanging with some pretty impressive pastors. These a little less rural, a bit more suburban, but with the same passion to go and make disciples. So, finding limited … Continue reading
A Thin Silence (2020 Remix)
The LORD was not in the great and strong wind that pulverized the rocks. Nor was He in the quake that shook the ground. And though you couldn’t take your eyes off the blazing fire, the LORD wasn’t in that … Continue reading
Stories of Affliction
