Where are you in Matthew Chapter Eight?
So likewise, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has cannot be My disciple- Luke 14:33 NIV There are two kinds of Christians. There are Christians who mark up their Bibles and Christians who don’t. I am unashamedly the first kind of Christian.

Proverbial Wisdom
I mentioned earlier this year that I am studying the book of Proverbs. (“The Message” version.) The amount of wisdom this book contains is remarkable. God certainly answered Solomon’s request.

Who is God? Psalm 104
Reading the Psalms is better than therapy. Each psalm is a treasure of wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. Occasionally, it’s a window into our soul and at other times it’s a door into the heart of God. We learn that nothing is more pressing than our need for God and our need to know Him intimately.… Continue reading Who is God? Psalm 104
All the Why’s Behind Philippians 4:8-9
Dear friends, this is now my second letter to you. I have written both of them as reminders to stimulate you to wholesome thinking- 2nd Peter 3:1 NIV It’s way above my paygrade. Nevertheless, sometimes I wonder about the “why” of some of God’s commands. Most of the “why’s” are easy. Thou shalt not murder is self-explanatory (Exodus… Continue reading All the Why’s Behind Philippians 4:8-9
