Leaving “Shittim”

By on Sunday, February 6th, 2011 | No Comments

Read Joshua 3 “Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the star ship Enterprise. Its continuing mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no one has gone before.” Ever since I was a kid and first heard Captain James T. Kirk speak […]

So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. For my […]

What Does It Mean To Be Missional?

By on Monday, January 31st, 2011 | No Comments

Do you remember that fellow who was possessed by demons?  He was called “legion.”  (You can read about him here: Luke 8:26-39).  I think I met him what i was a kid! When I was growing up down in Florida, there was a man living a block over from us that everyone in the neighborhood […]

Making The Grade

Oh, the memories.  It’s mid-term exams week in area high schools, and my son, Michael, is at the dining room table.  Tomorrow’s tests are in Technology and Math.  Now, it’s been a very long time since I have had to deal with the stress and anxiety of an academic exam.  That said, life has a […]

Are You A “Poop Machine?”

By on Saturday, January 15th, 2011 | No Comments

Frightened by the clamor of thunder in the night, a little child cried out.  Holding her securely in his arms, her father explained that she needn’t fear.  God would take care of her because He loved her greatly.  “I know God will take care of me and love me,” she relied.  “But right now, Daddy, […]

Is Grace Enough

By on Tuesday, January 4th, 2011 | 1 Comment

Read: Luke 17:5-6 It was a long time ago (a very long time ago, in fact).  Still the words have stayed with me for more than a quarter-century! I was eating dinner with Dr. Don Musser, my favorite professor in college.  Later than evening Dr. Musser would be preaching my ordination sermon at the First Baptist Church of […]

By on Saturday, January 1st, 2011 | No Comments

As I write these thoughts, it’s “New Year’s Eve!”  In just a few hours (5 ½ hours as I begin writing these thoughts) 2010 will be history and 2011 will begin. So, have you made any “New Year’s Resolutions?”  I have. This year I plan to stop wasting so much time exercising. Instead, I plan […]

Read Matthew 2:16-18 – On this Sunday after Christmas – on what is one of the traditionally low attendance Sunday’s of the year, I have decided to do something that (for obvious reasons) I never do.  I am going to sing a solo.  In fact, I am going to sing one of my favorite holiday […]

Have One Hell Of A Christmas

By on Friday, December 17th, 2010 | No Comments

I wonder why so many of my fellow preachers seem more interested in scaring the hell out of people rather than telling them about the good news about the life humanity has been offered through Jesus. I’m not saying there is no such thing as hell.  I just wonder about those folks who seem to […]

This post is from a new friend, Jonathan Stepp, found on his wonderful blog, http://www.theadoptedlife.org Adoption is a powerful idea. It is the idea that someone would receive into his life another person who has no natural claim of blood or kinship. It is the idea that this reception would take place in such a […]
