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

I'm still not over Christmas, but that doesn't mean that I can't look forward to the new year! A lot of people will be making resolutions, purposing and promising to be and to do better. But you don't have to wait. Being and doing better are not things that you have...

A Little Easter in Your Christmas

Many people have mixed feelings about Christmas. The commercialism has a tendency to suck the joy out of it. But remembering that it's about the first coming of Jesus makes it so joyous! But let's not forget the whole purpose for the first coming: to die for our sins...
