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

Devotion/Study “The Watered-Down Church” – 03/02/2026

Today’s study addresses the ongoing compromise of the Gospel of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, in most churches. I say most, because how many churches today preach repentance over acceptance? How many preach the wrath of God towards sinners alongside His love for His chosen? The true Gospel is about Christ alone, not about … More Devotion/Study “The Watered-Down Church” – 03/02/2026

Study – “Hypostatic Union” – 02/09/2026

I have a medical background, and the first time I heard mention of a HYPOstatic Union, my brain immediately thought of injections. Of course, this is actually the theological term for the dual nature of Christ, God and Man. This is one of the most glossed-over and most important doctrines of Christianity. I say “glossed … More Study – “Hypostatic Union” – 02/09/2026

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

Saturday Study and Sunday Sermon- “CIVIL” – 01/25 – 26/2026

I am praying that all my families, friends, and readers have not been overly impacted by the winter storm that has moved through the US. Here in my area of Mississippi, we had lots of rain, some freezing rain, and more rain, along with high winds and very cold temperatures. The outside temperature this morning … More Saturday Study and Sunday Sermon- “CIVIL” – 01/25 – 26/2026

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

Devotional – Experience vs. Holiness – 01/14/2026

COMMENT The actual title of today’s devotion from the BCL Newsletter is Pietism vs. Piety — What’s the Difference? I must admit that, somewhere in my mind, tucked away in a place likely never to be recovered, I had heard of Pietism before, but this study opened my eyes to another facet of Christianity and … More Devotional – Experience vs. Holiness – 01/14/2026
