- 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)

Abide In Him
Hmm . . . I guess John was listening. Ask me about “abiding” and John 15 comes to mind first as the go to passage. There, Jesus talks of a vine (aka Him) and branches (aka His followers) and the … Continue reading
Everyone, Listen Up!
It didn’t matter whether they were young in the faith, seasoned in the faith, or actively contending for the faith, John says to each, “I am writing to you.” I am writing to you, little children, because your sins are … Continue reading
Waiting, Waiting, Waiting
Wrapping up 2Peter 3 this morning. And if there’s anything to take away from this passage, it’s that we should be waiting. Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of people ought you to be in … Continue reading
Truth-Based Freedom in a Post-Truth Culture
Some have said that ours is a post-truth culture. That objective facts (if there really are any) are increasingly giving away to subjective personal belief. That your truth may not be my truth and that, within limits, there needs to … Continue reading
A Sanctuary (A 2018 Rerun)
Been a weird week. Been a struggle just to feed on the word in the morning much less try and share a meal. But this morning it’s still quiet and I’m reading in Ezekiel. Captured afresh by the thought of … Continue reading

Gentleness and Respect
So, it appears I’ll be completing a trilogy of thoughts this morning as I wrap up 1 Peter 3. A couple of days ago I was challenged by entrusting myself to Him who judges justly (1Pet. 2:23b). About not having … Continue reading
The Risk of Submitting
Chew on it a bit, and you realize what a huge ask Peter was making. Just as were all the believers Peter was writing to, these ladies, by the very nature of their confession of faith and determination to follow … Continue reading
Entrusting Myself to Him Who Judges Justly
I am wired to be a justifier. Not necessarily a justifier of all things to all people, just a justifier of myself. I don’t think I have to be right all the time–I think I know enough about people in … Continue reading
Why Ask?
It’s got to be one of the weirdest questions in all of Scripture. But, chew on it a bit, and it’s also has to be one of the most penetrating. Where? At a pool called Bethesda, in Jerusalem, by the … Continue reading
