dont forget the simple basics
We all at times unintentionally forget the basics. The simple basics that are so important and foundational should never be forgotten, but at times they are here. Here is a short and sweet reminder. God is perfect without sin. We have sinned against Him. Jesus gave up His life and shed His blood for us.…

to another generation… all those to come
I am praying for God to create more and more middle-aged and elderly people who have a deep burning desire to make an impact for Jesus to the up and coming generations. Who are the 30, 40, 50, and 60 year olds who are faithfully telling the children, teens, and 20 somethings about the glory…

I preached this past Sunday on Jesus’ temptations from Luke 4. You can hear the sermon here. Jesus is tempted three different times by the devil. The first temptation is for Jesus to turn a stone into food. Jesus responds by saying “It is written, ‘Man shall not live bread alone.’” Jesus was referring to…

what is that you “do”
What is that you do? We all do something? Many people have a very specific skill set or giftedness and they use it well. Like an athlete or a public speaker. But I am talking about something a little bit different. I am talking about whatever it is that you do. For instance, just recently…
