To Heal our Land

  If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.                                                                                                                                                                                II Chronicles 7:14      ESV   As believers we walk by faith, and the promises of

Be Not Conformed

  “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect”.                                                                                                                                                  Romans 12:2  First of all, let me assure you that this post has nothing to do with politics.

If You Keep Silent

  39 And some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples.” 40 He answered, “I tell you, if these were silent, the very stones would cry out.”                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Luke 19:39-41   I’m not sure I’d ever noticed these verses from Luke before, and I certainly didn’t know what they meant exactly.

Yesterday I

  “By grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God”                                                                                                                                                                                       Ephesians 2:8   The theologian and philosopher Dr. Jim Denison from Dallas is a critical thinker whom I enjoy reading greatly. Today’s comments had me reminiscing – and sadly recognizing a critical

An Anniversary

                                            We love, because He first loved us. —1 John 4:19 (NASB)   This time of year is very difficult for me. Tuesday will be the 5th anniversary of Sally’s death, and these chilly days are a stark reminder. It seems that every few minutes I think of where I was 5 years

The Roll

        I’m telling a story to you today that may get me deeper into trouble than most, but it affected me so profoundly that it needs telling. A little background: My dear, wonderful wife lived in this house alone for over 20 years before we got married. She designed three remodeling projects
