Devotion/Study – “THREE C’s” – 01/22/2026

Today’s devotional and study is from the Colson Center for Christian Worldview. I have used their materials often because I agree with their view most of the time. Today is no exception. While this article focuses on the importance of Creeds, I think it could be expanded to include Catechisms and Confessions as well. Why … More Devotion/Study – “THREE C’s” – 01/22/2026

Covenental Look at “Romans 13” – 01/20/2026

COMMENT I have often written on the subjects of “Christians and Their Duty to Government” and “Government and Its Duty to the People.” The preface to today’s article states: Romans 13 isn’t a slogan or a scare tactic; it’s a doctrine. David Mitzenmacher offers a confessional response to recent misuse and misunderstanding of civil authority. … More Covenental Look at “Romans 13” – 01/20/2026

Sunday Sermon Series – “Holiness” – 01/18/2026

COMMENT As I glanced over the Beautiful Christian Life January monthly newsletter (attached), I tried to remember the last time I seriously thought about Holiness. I often think of it in the context of God’s sovereignty, but rarely the Holiness of God as its own doctrine or how it applies to you and me. Oh, … More Sunday Sermon Series – “Holiness” – 01/18/2026

Study – “Wall of Seperation”- 01/10/2026

The fictional wall separating “Church and state” became a real issue some 30 or 40 years ago. At that time, however, there was never any mention, nor do I believe a thought of separating American citizens. While we differed in our interpretation of Jefferson’s letter to the Danbury Church, we were still Americans and treated … More Study – “Wall of Seperation”- 01/10/2026

New Year’s Resolution(s) – 2026

A soldier unresolved to fight, may be easily defeated. Frequently renew settled and holy resolutions. The weakness of our graces, the strength of our temptations, and the diligence of our spiritual enemies—require strong resolutions.

Christmas 2025

FSMandFSMWO prays your hearts are filled with the joy and peace that only comes from our risen Savior, whose birth we celebrate this Christmas. MacArthur’s quote is especially relevant today. Folks either focus on what is in front of them (Manger) and overlook the impact (birth of Creator), or they are so focused on what … More Christmas 2025
