- 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)

Stirring Up Division
I have a friend who refers to it as “Chad.” As in, “Let me ask Chad about that.” And he asks Chad about a lot. All the time, it seems. Chad is ChatGPT. I don’t have a ChatGPT account yet, … Continue reading
Reason Frankly
Working my way through Leviticus and, to be honest, there’s a lot of the commands-to-obey that don’t quite land with me. And I’m guessing it’s because they deal with the kind of stuff that was done in ancient Egypt, where … Continue reading

Seeing the Glory of God
Met with a friend yesterday, her world kind of rocked by the election results last week. For her, character mattered — like really mattered! And so, it’s taking a bit for her to work through how character seemingly didn’t matter … Continue reading

Believer Bashing
I just finished a book which sought to contend for the faith. But as I’m reading in James this morning, I’m wondering if it also didn’t transgress the law. That the church is not of one mind as to exactly … Continue reading
The Same Mind
They were a big deal, so IT was a big deal. Don’t know how many people assembled at the church in Philippi, but you sense they all knew who these two ladies were. Euodia and Syntche — “Fragrant” and “By … Continue reading

The Dynamics of Division
Divisions in the church. That’s the non-inspired heading in my bible for 1Corinthians 3. That’s the overall topic Paul’s addressing. That’s the context. And as I sit back and look at my now colored page, it’s all the red-shading that … Continue reading
An Obligation
For the past few months I have been listening to a podcast that’s walking through the book of Romans. And what I have appreciated as much as anything over these months is the manner in which the “why” of Romans … Continue reading

Do We Need to Fight?
It was a quick conversation. A passing comment / counter-comment chat in the restroom quickly conducted between washing and drying our hands. Used to be those were light chats about the weather or the local sports team. Now, seems every … Continue reading
On the Contrary, Bless
A rerun from 2016. Timely for our times I think. It’s been my experience that when the circumstances of life get difficult it often puts strain on relationships. Show me a couple in the pressure cooker of financial need and … Continue reading
