In our travels, through out the west in our RV, we’ve met some interesting people. It’s been mostly a real pleasure to swap stories about our adventures with those who’ve faced similar challenges. What’s been truly remarkable to me are those who share their faith! Not because I meet someone who shares the […]

America’s Sin?
This past week or so as I’ve watched the news, listened to reverence and drama and heard folks “take”on recent events I’ve had to pause. And think. What is the reaction of God? What would God tell us in lieu of these events, these tragedies? Would He shake a Finger at our […]
Who’s your Super Hero?
I was watching the latest installment of the Avengers movie and had some real comparison moments between them and our Savior. The difference? The Avengers can really die, never to return, and cannot grant eternal life… to anyone. While the movie was entertaining and the story interesting, I was surprised to hear someone exclaim Jesus’s […]
God’s Wisdom
The world’s wisdom vs God’s wisdom. Do we know Him? Do we try to comprehend His sovereignty, His power? Are we more concerned with worldly things and worries in today’s culture? Better yet, do we seek His wisdom or our own? Where is the wise man? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater […]
Draw Near
Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.- James 4:8. NASB I love this beginning of the verse. The verse before (verse 7) tells us to “Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.” These are lovely instructions from James, Jesus’s half brother. As a Christian […]
Trust in God
When those Hebrews wandered the desert for 40 years, and then later got taken captive to Babylon, the lesson was about trust, faithfulness, relying on Him and representing God to other nations. Instead of pointing to how great God was or trusting in Him only, they made a golden calf […]
The Village
In the news lately the measles has made the headlines. It makes me think that instead of being community minded we have become those parents that say, not me, not my kid. That comes from broken people (which we all are) , from a potpourri of backgrounds, belief systems with bit of […]
Broken
Why do we have to acknowledge that we are broken? What does it mean to be broken? What if we do good to others and try to live sin free? Are we still considered broken? Great questions and I used to ask these often. The troubling fact is that we are broken. We […]
All Of Creation-God
Sometimes I have to pause and think really hard about just Who God is. In my mind I begin with large waves breaking over large outcrops of rock. Sometimes my mind floats out to images I’ve seen of our planet lit at night from the cities spattered across the continents, some in large […]
Saul, also known as Paul
In Acts, chapter 13, verse 9, Saul becomes known as Paul. Is this significant? When you think about the many letters from Paul that comprise the last chapters of the new testament, it is. Paul often refers to himself as an apostle/bondservant of Christ. The significance of Paul is that […]
