The Theology Of Praise
Contributed on Jun 20, 2020
How saturated is your life with praise?
Praise is the atmosphere of heaven, and we can enjoy that here on earth, as a Christian. The authentic and radical Christian has the advantage in this. The world and its events do not control our praise. Our praise flows from within and is a reflection of God within us. Our praise here is a ...read more

The Comfort God Gives To His People
Contributed on Jan 15, 2018
Nothing we experience can ever compromise the comfort God has for us.
Looking back over the past year there are many things we can be thankful. Often times we only remember the bad things and forget that God got us through those times by his grace. We can’t change the past, but we can be thankful for how God brought us through on the victorious way. As we ...read more

The Power Of Faith
Contributed on Jan 15, 2018
When I begin to understand the power of faith, I begin to appreciate what the Christian life is really all about.
Some people like to refer to themselves as a man or woman of faith. Yet, if you query them along that subject you discover they have no idea what a man or woman of faith is. Faith has become just a word we use when thinking of somebody who is religious. Their faith is rooted in their ...read more

The Dimensions Of The Lord’s Table
Contributed on Jun 24, 2017
To understand the dimensions of the Lord’s Table is to fully grasp the character and nature of our Christian experience.
1 Corinthians 10:14-33, 1 Corinthians 11:17-34 The Lord’s Table is a continuing memorial of the death, burial and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. It is the one thing Christians have celebrated from the very beginning. Jesus said to the early Christians concerning this, “This do ...read more

The Connection Between The Lord’s Supper And The Upper Room
Contributed on Jun 17, 2017
No matter how long you have been a Christian there are still more wondrous things to be discovered about the Christian life. And it is the challenge of my life each day to seek more and more of what it means to be a Christian.
Matthew 26:17-35; John 20:19-31 F. W. Boreham has a very interesting essay on the subject, “Seek and ye shall Find.” He takes a different twist on the Scripture and I was fascinated by it. He tells the story of when he was young and lost a little toy. He acquired this toy by exchanging ...read more

It Was A Fool’s Game And I Lost
Contributed on Apr 6, 2024
When it comes to games, I am not a good player. I lose more times than I win, and I can’t remember the last time I won. My paternal grandfather’s favorite holiday of the year was April Fools’ Day. He often would spend the whole year developing a prank for family and friends. He had a construction ...read more

Second Thoughts Can Be Dangerous To My Health
Contributed on Mar 30, 2024
Many things in life can be rather dangerous. For me, the most dangerous things in my life are thoughts. I thought about this one day, and by the end of the day, I was in deep trouble. Thoughts have a way of doing that with me. My New Year’s resolution one year was to have one thought per day. ...read more

Don’t Knock On The Door If You Like Breathing
Contributed on Mar 23, 2024
I’m unsure if this is a new phenomenon or I’m just starting to catch up on the culture. I know I have a lot to catch up on, and I’m slowly doing it. Lately, there’s been a lot of activity at our front door. That’s not to diminish the activity at the back porch door. That activity has to do with a ...read more

Recently, illegitimate aliens of the worst kind have invaded our house illegally. It came to a head just the other day when we were sitting down to lunch, and The Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage had a lovely bowl of tomato soup. I forgot what I was eating because all the attention went to her ...read more

Why Does Monday Have To Follow Sunday?
Contributed on Mar 9, 2024
The older I get, the more I wake up not knowing what day it is. That is particularly true on Mondays. My favorite day of the week is Sunday. I enjoy attending church, fellowshipping with other Christians, and of course, the Sunday worship services. I enjoy Sunday morning and evening like no other ...read more
