- 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 Decision
Romans 14 has got to be one of the most challenging passages in all of Scripture. It sets the bar high . . . really high. And not with specific “to dos” or “to don’ts,” but with principles for doing … Continue reading
Not Worth Comparing
This morning, Sue and I had a good laugh as we read together of what has got to be, by the author’s own admission, among the worst honeymoons ever (you can check it out by clicking here). And while such … Continue reading
The Path to Our Final Destination
I think I’ve commented on it before . . . how some verses lie in the shadow of others. Case in point, this morning, Romans 6:22. Romans 6:23 is the well known verse . . . “For the wages of … Continue reading
Of Head and Of Heart
This morning I encountered two provisions for someone to declare they were wholly the LORD’s. Two approaches that evidenced a willingness to pay a price that their all-out allegiance to the God of creation might be known. One was evidenced … Continue reading
The Great Equalizer
I’m reading again in Leviticus this morning and the math just doesn’t line up. You know, the math that says that if A=B and B=C then A=C. Or, in the case of this morning’s reading in Leviticus 5, if a … Continue reading

Inscrutable
There’s a danger in familiarity. Things that once were new and appreciated become old hat and presumed upon. Things that once captured our imagination and invoked a sense of awe, over time, become commonplace and just another piece of data … Continue reading

In Christ Jesus
I’d almost defy any blood-bought believer to sit down with Romans 8 . . . read it in one thoughtful sitting . . . and not be in a different place when they finish the chapter from where they were … Continue reading

From “Get To” to “Want To!”
Recently I watched part of a Mark Driscoll sermon in which he talked about his early days in the church. As a new believer he didn’t know much, but God had shown him enough that he knew he needed to … Continue reading
