Devotion/Study – “Chaos or Control” – 03/18/2026

If you have followed my posts for any length of time, you know this is a frequent topic of mine. I am convinced that unless we are convinced that God is in complete control (Sovereign), we can not have a proper Biblical/Christian Worldview. Without a proper Biblical/Christian Worldview, we are no different than the Church … More Devotion/Study – “Chaos or Control” – 03/18/2026

Devotion – “Large and in Charge” – 03/09/2026

I have passed by this church many times. One of the things I love about this building is that no one can mistake it for a strip mall (referring here to newly constructed facilities) or a self-storage facility. It boldly proclaims we are a church. Last week, we looked at Christians and Politics. Should “Christians” … More Devotion – “Large and in Charge” – 03/09/2026

Friday Feature Quote + Study-“EVIL”-03/06/2025

There are many scriptures that can be applied to this quote; the first one that came to my mind was Isaiah 5:20. Here is the Amplified version: Woe (judgment is coming) to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet … More Friday Feature Quote + Study-“EVIL”-03/06/2025

Friday Feature Quote – “Authenticity”- 02/06/2026

COMMENTS First, the video (below) that started today’s post asks if the Bible is Corrupped. The assumption they are answering is that there was a wilful attempt to alter the Bible from its original text. I will attempt to answer that assumption with references to Biblical Authenticity and Inerrancy. Ok, here is where I make … More Friday Feature Quote – “Authenticity”- 02/06/2026

Devotional Studies – “Creation” – 02/02/2026

GENESIS 1 GENESIS 2 CREATION: The divine act of bringing the universe and all that inhabits it into existence. The biblical presentation of creation is neither scientific nor monolithic, but testifies to the beauty and complexity of this foundational event in ancient Israel’s consciousness. John E. Anderson, “Creation,” in The Lexham Bible Dictionary, ed. John … More Devotional Studies – “Creation” – 02/02/2026

Friday Feature Quote “Joy” – 01/23/2026

COMMENT What is “Christian Joy” and how does one obtain it, are questions that have been asked repeatedly throughout the history of the church. I think, even more so, in the last 60-70 years. The Western world has become increasingly self-obsessed, more what’s in it for me. Pulpits have preached a message of love, pushing … More Friday Feature Quote “Joy” – 01/23/2026

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

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
