Behold Your King (2016 Remix)

Posted on December 13, 2024 by Pete

I like gazing upon a Nativity scene. I can overlook the historical inaccuracies of shepherds and magi and angels gathered all together under a bright star to surround a new mom and a proud dad gazing down into a straw-filled … Continue reading →

Meeting Up with Nebuchadnezzar

Posted on November 17, 2023 by Pete

“When I get to heaven, I can’t wait to talk to [fill in the blank]!” Ever heard someone say something like that? Ever said that yourself? Will heaven really work that way? That anyone I choose to connect with I … Continue reading →

Posted on February 21, 2022 by Pete

What I Have Written I Have Written

Posted on December 14, 2017 by Pete

When they asked the question, it was with such promise. When they used the title, it was with a hush of reverence. When they offered their gifts, it was to give glory and honor to the name. Now after Jesus … Continue reading →
