- 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)

The Corpse
Okay. When it comes to “translator privilege” I’m usually pretty compliant. I marvel when I consider those men and women who commit together to translate the Scriptures. I don’t pretend to understand all the nuances they have to deal with … Continue reading
With a Clear Mind
I don’t think they offered it to Jesus out of any sense of compassion, but more out of duty to protocol. It was a pitiful act of mercy incorporated into what was overwhelmingly a vile and cruel form of execution … Continue reading
Stay Awake
Some passages you just need to hover over for awhile to try and get what it’s saying. Others I need to do some quick study work with my online Bible tools. Others still, I pull out my William MacDonald commentary … Continue reading
No Middle Ground
It seems there was no middle ground. Though there’s no doubt as to the purity of Peter’s motive, he was, nevertheless, staking his flag on enemy territory. Even though what Jesus said was so out there, it seems that if … Continue reading

The Man on the Center Cross

A Heart Jesus Can Touch
This morning’s reading in the gospel of Mark was just seven short verses . . . but man, some pretty serious food for chewing on here. An encounter between a scribe and a Savior . . . a seeker of … Continue reading

Because Jesus Loved Him
Hadn’t he done enough? From the time of his youth he had kept all the commandments. From all accounts you sense he was a sincere seeker of God. From all indicators he was serious about pursuing the things of God. … Continue reading

The Ruler and The Woman
He was a somebody . . . she was a nobody. He was recognized by the rank-and-file as one of the rulers of the synagogue . . . she was seen by no one and got lost in the crowd. … Continue reading
