Just Wondering

I have things about the Bible that I wonder sometimes. They're not doctrinally important so the Bible doesn't give answers, so I just wonder for fun. If you're curious, here are a few. In the book of Ruth, was Ruth's and Boaz's relationship as romantic as my 21st...

Glory, Irony, and a Crying Savior

I'm late to write this blog, but this time it feels like more of a good thing than usual because I have some things to share from the sermon tonight that I might not have shared this soon otherwise. We were in Mark 15:15-32. The crucifixion of Christ has some glorious...

In Court and On Trial

A few days ago someone was talking about how God is the judge in the courtroom of life, and we can try to put Him on trial as if we're the judge, but we can't do that because we're not the judge. Then I started thinking about what it looks like when people try to...

Act on What You Say and Believe

Sometimes we say things that we don't act on. Sometimes we say something is good and then we do something else. Sometimes we say and know things that are absolutely and obviously true and logical, but we then proceed in the most illogical manner. We know that our...

Onward!

Happy New Year, everyone! I would just like to praise God for all that He's done for me last year and all that He will be doing this year. God has helped me to know His voice better. God has helped me to know His love better. Through my experiences with others, God...

Reflection and Projection

We are nearing the end of the year. This is a time when many of us reflect on how the year has gone and project how we want this next year to go. Doing both of these is important. The past is a good place to learn, but not a good place to live. Think back on what...
