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,...

Helmet of Salvation

Let's start by remembering that salvation isn't just something you get and then get over. Yes, it is about a one time justification, but it is also about the process of becoming who you are in Christ. Salvation is being rescued from bondage to sin, and set free to...

Huddle Up with Your Faith Shield

In the ancient Roman army, the soldiers knew how to march in formation and use their shields together. They stood right next to each other and made a protective wall. When under fire from above, they would huddle up and create a turtle shell with their shields. Each...

The One Who Gave You the Shield Is Big Enough

In Ephesians 6, Paul tells us to take up the Shield of Faith. This shield is big enough and strong enough to protect us from the oncoming enemy and his flaming javelins. Taking up the shield by having faith is important. Faith is putting action to your belief. Do you...
