Spiritually speaking, each and every one of us was under a death sentence without Jesus. Not physical death, mind you, but the deserved promise to spend eternity apart from God. A place of eternal punishment. But, Christ has changed our eternal destiny - that death sentence has been ended and we now have a sentence to life eternal, which begins the moment we accept Jesus as our Savior. ...  Read More

The Disney ecosystem has produced its share of young stars, some of whom got started in wholesome entertainment, yet their lives degenerated into more “adult” roles as they grew up. We have just heard about someone who did some work for Disney while young, who now in her 30’s, died of what was apparently some sort of cardiac event. But the Bible warns against gaining the whole world and losing one...  Read More

Temptation is all around us, vying for our attention, being used on the enemy to lure us into activities that are not pleasing to God. The Bible traces the process of temptation, and it starts in the heart - we must make sure that we are guarded and that we are grounded in Scripture, so that we can resist the activities that will cause us to stray from God. ...  Read More

The Bible teaches that the primary responsibility for raising children is placed upon the parents. Parents can certainly look to the Church to assist in that mission, as well as other family members and institutions. But, it comes back to the home to impart godly principles to the next generation. That is supported by Deuteronomy chapter 6....  Read More

No matter what the conditions of the economy, God’s economic principles remain the same. We can recognize that, as believers, what we possess ultimately belongs to Him, and we are instructed to be good stewards of the resources that He has provided. His economy is predicated on our selfless act of tithing, but He desires for us to bring our financial decisions to Him. And, recognize that our heart...  Read More

When we consider what God would want to do in our lives, sometimes it will be outside of our comfort zone - “outside the box,” you may want to call it. But, even if we sense the direction of the Holy Spirit to do something bold, something that we might not get our minds around, we can know that if He has called us to do it, He will provide the power and the resources to get it done. ...  Read More

As we pray for those who have not come to know the Lord - yet, we can be confident that God is working in their hearts. When we plant the seeds of truth in a person’s heart through our faithful witness, we can anticipate that those seeds will be watered and grow, perhaps resulting in a person’s salvation. It’s the power of truth, the power of the Holy Spirit working in a person’s life. ...  Read More

We can recognize that there are barriers that keep people from receiving the gospel in their lives. Through conversation and perhaps other means, when these barriers are revealed, we can take the necessary steps - and live a compelling life - in order to remove barriers. In sales, we used to call it, “overcoming objections” - and we can pray and speak in order that those barriers can be addressed ...  Read More

We should be so grounded in our faith in Jesus Christ that His presence consumes every area of our lives. And, as people who have been redeemed by our Savior, we are dispatched to influence culture, so that others may come to know Him. So that generations to come might know the greatness of God. We can spread the aroma of Christ to those with whom we interact. ...  Read More

I don’t know when it may have begun - you probably just have to go ALL the way back. To the Garden. To the serpent, who said, “Did God really say?” After all, we could read just a few verses before that in the Bible where God laid out His plan for the sustenance of humanity - created male and female, intended to wed, bear children, and by so doing, to perpetuate the human race. Now, people seem to...  Read More
