- 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)

Lost in Christ
While our current culture of “expressive individualism” may have accelerated it, it’s actually been going on for a while within the church. Sometime in our past, in order to battle dead, lifeless religion, we started talking instead about a “personal … Continue reading

In the Lord
Identity. For those who have ears to hear, there’s a lot of talk these days about identity. Who we are. What we is. As I wrap up Romans this morning, a couple of short, repeated phrases remind me of my … Continue reading
Our Identity

His Possession with A Promise
If you think about it, if Paul’s identity had been found in Paul’s occupation or position of influence, Paul’s self-esteem and sense of self-worth should have been taking a major hit. Maybe the transition from being a Hebrew among Hebrews … Continue reading
