Book Metaphors

I came across an entry in one of my notebooks, and it was good to be reminded that God is the Author of life, and He knows how to write and finish good stories. When life happens and things change, whether we like those things or not, we need to turn the page. And...

Looking Back Again

Round about a year ago, I was looking for a new job, a new place to live, and a new direction in my life. Now I have two jobs, a place to live, and enough direction to figure out where I should probably head from here. I'm probably going to sound like a broken record...

New Year, New Schedule

Once again, I find myself changing my blog schedule. I'll be posting my blogs on Tuesday, since my new schedule this year allows better writing time on that day. Speaking of new schedules, this past year has been full of changes for me. I went from one job to another,...

Palm Sunday is coming up! That day marks the beginning of the quick succession of events leading to Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection. Just before going to Jerusalem, Jesus paused and told His disciples to go into a nearby village where they would find a donkey...

Metaphors and Parallels – Corrupted Programming

Each human being has an awareness of God and morality. It is hardwired into us. We are "programmed" to know that there is Someone beyond us and that there is a clear definition of right and wrong. But this "programming" is corrupted. Yes, we can usually tell right...

Show Me

I've heard a lot of people say some very good and important things. But just because you can say a lot of good and important things doesn't mean that you live by the things you say. We can know all the right answers to say in Sunday school, but our lives will show if...

Pick Up the Ball and Get Back on the Horse

It's past the time of year that people usually give up on their New Year's resolutions. But just because you give up on something doesn't mean that you can't ever pick it up again. Just because you failed or messed up doesn't mean that you can't try again. It may not...
