- 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)

Wrapping up 2Peter 3 this morning. And if there’s anything to take away from this passage, it’s that we should be waiting. Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of people ought you to be in … Continue reading

A Bit of the Presence While Waiting for the Promise
