    I stayed up last night to watch these guys. I’m really glad it’s NBA season again. This time of the year is probably the best time for sports fans. The World Series is being played, college football and the NFL are on, and hockey is in full swing! I thought that this post by Steven…

  • A Beautiful Picture

    Genesis 3 contains an event that effects our lives today as much as any other in the Bible.  The Fall of Man was caused by man’s rebellion against the rules and direction of God. One of the amazing things about these verses of scripture is not just the sin that man committed, but the response…

  • You Being Them

    One of the things that drives me crazy is when someone tries too hard to fit in with other people. I think we’ve all met people (you may be one) that tries so hard to fit in with other people that they have completely lost all sense of identity. These people spend all their time…

    Hebrews 12:18-19, 22 “You have not come to a mountain that can be touched and that is burning with fire.  You have not come to darnkness, sadness, and storms.  You have not come to the noise of a trumptet or to the sound of a voice like the one the people of Israel heard and…

  • Selfish or Selfless?

    When did the world become so selfish?  It seems like no on is concerned about anyone around them.  It seems like everyone is out to make sure they get what they want while completely disregarding everyone else.  I guess the world has always been a pretty selfish place, but it seems to be getting worse!…

  • An Encore Presentation

    Today and next week, I’m going to be reposting some blog entries from the past year. Think of this as the reruns or something…or maybe encore presentations! I’m doing this because I haven’t been able to import the entries from the old site, so I thought that I would get some of them to this…

  • Playing By The Rules

    We certainly serve a God of grace and mercy! His grace revealed to us through His Son is something that I have no idea how to comprehend! It is simply amazing! God doesn’t expect us to be perfect, He doesn’t require that we follow a set of do’s and don’ts. In fact, Jesus came to…

  • Have To Want

    Do it because you WANT to, not because you HAVE to! It sounds really simple when spoken, but when practiced, it becomes much more difficult. However, this is what the Christian faith is all about. Not that we have to serve God or that we have to be good people, but that we want to…

  • Pastor Appreciation

    Since joining the staff of a church a little over a year ago, I have begun to realize the importance of encouragement. As most of you know (if you didn’t you do now), this month is Pastor’s Appreciation Month. This is the month for us to tell our pastors how much we appreciate them and…

  • Dealing With Risks

    After yesterday’s post about taking risks, I figured that it would only be appropriate to post today about how to deal with failure… Failure is inevitable. If we are people of risk taking, we will be people of failure. Here are some things to do and consider before and after failure: Why are you taking…
