- 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)

There’s a Kingdom for the Saints
If you ever read Daniel, you know it’s true. You go from chapter six to chapter seven and it’s like someone has thrown a switch. One moment you’re in the world of Sunday School stories, the next you’re at a … Continue reading

The Lord Knows
Two pieces of teaching come together this morning, one from Jesus and the other from Paul. Kingdom teaching connected to comfort teaching. First, Jesus is asked by the Pharisees (like they really wanted to know) “when the kingdom of God … Continue reading

Storming the Gates
Use your finances wisely, He said. Invest in eternity, He said. Be faithful with “unrighteous wealth” and you’ll be entrusted with “true riches”, He said. Steward well what is Another’s and in a coming day He will give you what … Continue reading
It’s Gonna Crush It!
It’s been crazy for so long, it almost doesn’t warrant commenting on how crazy it is. But, if nothing else reminds us (and there’s a lot to remind us), our political rhythms have a way of reminding those with ears … Continue reading
In Your Midst

Sometimes a verse grabs me because I think I get it. Whether it’s a light going on for the first time, or for a fresh time, I chew on it because I think I’m picking up what’s being laid down … Continue reading
Entering the Kingdom
Hovering over the story of the rich young guy who came to Jesus in order to complete his portfolio. He already had “great possessions” (Mk. 10:22b), but wanted to know how to invest wisely so as to “inherit eternal life” … Continue reading
On Being a Little One
Their question, if not the right question, is certainly an understandable question. After all, they were getting in on the ground floor. They were initial investors. That they should be the first to be let in on what the kingdom … Continue reading

Implications of Passing the Test
They had been schooled by the Master. Taught in parables. First, as part of a “public school”, Jesus having first spoken a number of parables to the “great crowds gathered about Him” (Matt. 13:1-35). Then, the disciples were privately tutored. … Continue reading
