10 things Christians should resolve not to do: Not Obsess over Anything Other than Christ
From our Monday School lesson: Have you ever had an ear-worm? What’s the best way to get rid of an ear-worm? Listen to the song. 90% of the time that will do it for me. If we use this logic for everything that we obsess about, can you think of what a mess we’d beContinue reading “10 things Christians should resolve not to do: Not Obsess over Anything Other than Christ”
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas Luke 1 – 12 The Birth of Jesus 2 In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. 2 (This was the first census that took place while[a] Quirinius was governor of Syria.) 3 And everyone went to their own town to register. 4 So Joseph also went up from theContinue reading “Merry Christmas”
Testimony Tuesday
It was beautiful. No. It was sad. No. It was both. I am a fan of science fiction. In the 4th or 5th grade, we read ‘All Summer in a Day’ by Ray Bradbury. I think this started me down the sci-fi trail. Listen to it. Watch it. Enjoy it. Try to write it. ButContinue reading “Testimony Tuesday”

Or is it Satan using even the most trivial of situations to cause me to loose faith in myself or worse looseContinue reading “My Thankful Thursday is more like Testimony Tuesday.”
“God’s got this.”
I tell people this all the time. As well as myself. God’s got this. But being human; all too often, I let my mind run wild with the what if’s. Conveniently forgetting, God’s got this. Everyone on every thing we buy is feeling the burden of inflation. Products and services seem higher today than theyContinue reading ““God’s got this.””
