Holy Week; day 1

This week is Holy Week. The week between Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday. Each day of Holy Week, I’m going to post a Bible verse. These verses do not necessarily have anything to do with resurrection. Psalm 16:8 I have set the Lord always before me: because He is at my right hand, I shallContinue reading “Holy Week; day 1”

Hidden in plain sight: songs you didn’t know were about Christianity

Romans 8:28 NIV “28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” Have you ever been be-bopping down the road listening to 107.3 (not a Christian radio station) when a song comes on that grabs your feel goods? You’reContinue reading “Hidden in plain sight: songs you didn’t know were about Christianity”

Hard Fought Hallelujah 

I wasn’t going to do a Testimony Tuesday today. I was going to let the song I posted speak for me. As I’m listening to more Christian music; to find more songs to speak for me, I found Brandon Lake and Jelly Roll singing Hard Fought Hallelujah. This is my new favorite song.  As forContinue reading “Hard Fought Hallelujah “

Christianity and money

EXODUS 4:10, KJV “And Moses said unto the Lord, O my Lord, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue.” Much like Moses, I have never been an elegant speaker. I can ever remember the right words toContinue reading “Christianity and money”

The Silver Lining

1 Thessalonians 5:18 New Living Translation 18 Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. Many years ago I had a panic attack during a snow storm. At the time, I worked in Mt. Vernon and was trying to get home to London. About 23 miles.  TheContinue reading “The Silver Lining”

Sinner to Saint

Sin, brings temporary joy. Forever with us, it toys. ~ Sin, you giggle, tote, do really bad things.  Forever with us, in our souls it sings.  ~ “Come to me.” The siren duth sing.  “Come to me. Your soul to me, bring.” ~ Manifest the flesh.  Never! Never receive any rest.  ~ Born into sin.Continue reading “Sinner to Saint”

Testimony Tuesday

Christmas Sucks! According to the National Retail Federation (NRF), the average American is expected to spend around $902 on Christmas this year 2024. Google AI search results. This figure is on the low end of all the numbers I ran across. The lowest was $50.00, to the highest being $3,000. Living in a highly commercialized,Continue reading “Testimony Tuesday”

Bible Stories for Grown Ups: The parable of the talents

I’m going to be perfectly honest here. Deep sigh, scratching my head – NOT another parable. Come on Jesus. We have a saying, “plain talk is easily understood.” When I was in school we had this teacher, if you didn’t know how to spell a word she would say ‘look it up’. I got inContinue reading “Bible Stories for Grown Ups: The parable of the talents”

Monday School

Preventing the flood: The Story of Noah Bible Stories for Grown Ups A child’s view: I would bet there aren’t many children (especially in the Bible Belt) that haven’t heard the story of Noah. A lovely little story about a man God told to build a boat. He did. Got made fun of in theContinue reading “Monday School”
