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...

Well That’s Stupid

I have an enormous amount of material that I could cover in a post about stupidity. But let's not get into specifics, or this post and the discussion thereof would never end. Instead, I'm going to talk in general about the different opinions of what is and is not...

Receiving What You Asked For

So my last post talked about asking to receive. God has recently gently reminded me that the receiving part of what you asked for isn't about you getting something. You are receiving for you to be better, yes, but it isn't really about you. It is about God using you....

Ask and Ye Shall Receive

In the Bible it says that if you need or want something you can ask God for it. He knows what you need (Matthew 6:31-33). When you ask God for something, you need to ask believing you will receive it (James 1:5-6). But when asking for something, you need to ask for...

Bitter or Better

I find it fascinating that specific points in life can produce a bitter person or a better person. The same thing can happen to two different people, and the choice they make in response to this problem will determine a lot about them and their future by the end of...
