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...

Hidden Truth

Choosing a Side

There is a line between good and evil, between God's side and Satan's side, between serving God and serving Satan. But you can't stand on the line. You are on one side or the other. There is no middle ground. And we all start out on the wrong side of the line. Humans...

I Pledge Allegiance

I looked up the words "pledge" and "allegiance" in the American Dictionary of the English Language - Noah Webster 1828. A pledge is something given to be held until payment is ready. Allegiance is the duty of fidelity to a king or government. Both involve being bound...

Video Game Lessons

While there are plenty of bad video games out there and plenty of bad lessons to learn from them, there are also some good video games with good lessons to learn. Here are a few of my observations. You don't always know every character's backstory. You can't buy stuff...
