The door

Knock on the pew to represent knocking on a door. These pictures are black and white so that colors aren’t the first thing you see. *For the lesson, I printed them in black and white. Show children the picture of a normal door. Then show them the picture of Jesus standing at the door. OtherContinue reading “The door”

A formal introduction 

*Author’s note, the pastor asked me if I was interested in doing children’s church. And I said yes. It’s four to five minutes with the children of the church before the adult service starts. Pray for me. I want to do the best job I can. 🙏🏻 This is written the way I’m hoping toContinue reading “A formal introduction “

Human mess

The person I was yesterday, I am not today. Jesus has given me the opportunity through grace, to change who I was and who I will become.  We learn.  We grow. We change.  We overcome. Walking in the foot steps of Christ is hard.  I stumble:           I make snap judgments.Continue reading “Human mess”

Thankful Thursday

The Bible group I study with re-read Genesis recently.  Here we go again. How many books have you read more than once? Typically, we read a book. When we are finished, take it back to the library. Give it to a friend or put it in a book box. The really good ones might endContinue reading “Thankful Thursday”

The Book of Ruth

When I quote Bible verses from Ruth, I’m using the English Standard Version (ESV). How do you feel about The Book of Ruth? This isn’t a trap for you dear reader. It’s an honest question.  Personally, I have an issue with this little Bible book. Please don’t get me wrong and give me time toContinue reading “The Book of Ruth”

Perfect verse blameless 🥊

Have you ever had a nagging question that nothing seemed to quench?  The prayer group I’m involved with has been re-reading Genesis. I listen to an audio recording. As I’m listening to a daily reading I hear, “These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and NoahContinue reading “Perfect verse blameless 🥊”
