So, the following verse has come up a few times in different ways today: “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” – John 14:27 I am not sure why it…

Questions from Kids
Every night my family does a short family devotional before bed. Undoubtably, one of my kids decides that this is a great time to ask questions – right before bed. We often try to find time to answer them to some degree or another. These questions run a wide range of areas but usually, but…
Marriage and Civil Unions
Time for another ramble about something that is a hot button topic for many – marriage and civil unions. As most of you know I am Christ-Follower. As a result I believe in the purity and importance of marriage (for those that desire to be in a relationship). Marriage is something that was created by…
The Trinity and Unholy Trinity
While going through the Revelation study I am doing at a local church at the moment we discussed a section from chapter 13 the other day and it got me to thinking about the Trinity and the Unholy trinity mentioned in this chapter. The Holy Trinity is something I is hard to understand, but at…
Does God Hate Satan?
I am in a weekly Bible study going over the book of Revelation. It has been a good study so far. The other day we were discussing chapter 12, the woman, the child, the dragon section, and the workbook we have asked us this: “Describe Satan’s relationship with God and his power in comparison to…
Try Out a New Church – Part 4 – Another Non-denominational
So time to try another church. My wonder wife did a quick search on a Saturday night and found one that was close that seemed like it was worth checking out. I am not sure why I didn’t find it while doing my searches, but whatever. We headed over the next morning and it was…
Try Out a New Church – part 3 – take 2 (with family)
So I took my family to the non-denominational church I blogged about a few weeks ago to see what we all thought. No one hated it. The girls went to the youth times. “G” said it was ok and “A” was indifferent. “A” said there didn’t seem to be any other girls her grade in…
Missionary Support from Churches
My family supports a number of missionaries financially. We have done this or many years. We think it is an important role for people to have in the work of the Gospel message. For a lot of missionaries they only get paid based on the financial support that they raise. This involves a lot of…
Try Out a New Church – part 3 – Non-Denominational (by myself)
This last Sunday I went to another new church here in the area. I was on my own because the rest of my family was at a Girl Scout Winter camp in another city. “B” and I thought it would be a good idea for me to try out another church on our list. This…
Try Out a New Church – part 2 – Wealth and Health
Well we tried another church this past Sunday. Online it looked quite a bit more modern than the one we attended last week. There was hope that it meant it would be a bit more modern in its thinking/preaching/attitude than the last one as well. Well, it was certainly different in a ways. It was…
