- 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)

My Father’s House
Not gonna lie . . . kind of like our place. I like coming home. I like hanging out in our house. I like the floor plan. I like how it’s been furnished. I like how it’s been decorated. I … Continue reading

Don’t Need Fire From Heaven
A longer than normal post this morning. Re-working some thoughts from 2009 on today’s readings . . . Talk about your high drama and suspense! They had been at it for hours. The 450 prophets of Baal and the 400 … Continue reading
With the Spirit, To the Father, In the Name of the Son
It’s a command to be obeyed manifesting itself in four outcomes. It’s not a check-off-the-box, once-and-done command. While it begins with a once-for-all experience, the nature of the command is such that it “must continue thereafter as a moment-by-moment process” … Continue reading

God’s Body Building Program
Show me a follower of Christ who has stalled and I’ll show you a follower who’s not connected to a fellowship of other followers. Tell me about someone who was tracking well with the Lord and then just kind of … Continue reading
The Unsearchable Riches of Christ
After waking to eight verses in Psalm 119 . . . and chewing on Solomon’s great prayer of dedication at the just completed and glory-filled temple . . . and taking in Zechariah’s song of praise at the birth of … Continue reading
Near
“Therefore remember . . . ” That’s how my reading in Ephesians (2:11-22) began this morning. I took it as a command to obey. Sometimes you need to recall where you were in order to appreciate anew where you are. … Continue reading
Have A Seat!
The rap sheet is long. Dead in trespasses and sins. Followed the course of this age . . . was led by the the spirit now at work in people of disobedience. Lived after the passions of the flesh–if it … Continue reading
