The New Year brings resolutions and the thought of improving our life in some way. A good way for those who are married might be to take a look at our marriage and what we can do to better love our wives. The Bible gives us some good direction on this.

Living Water
Life is full of amazing things, and we often find ourselves hungering and thirsting for the things we do not have, or do not have enough of. Maybe it is some cool car that we want. Maybe it is the ultimate mate. Maybe it is children. Maybe it is more money, a better house, aContinue reading “Living Water”
The Peace of God
Recent studies indicate that people are more anxious and stressed out today than in the recent past. Many potential causes are cited, but nothing has specifically been indicated to be the primary cause. Some people’s anxiety gets so bad, that it becomes what is referred to as anxiety disorder. Approximately 19% of the US populationContinue reading “The Peace of God”
The Presence of the Lord
(Written in 2019 when a massive flood inundated our home – aerial view above) God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change and though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea; though its waters roar and foam, though theContinue reading “The Presence of the Lord”
Chopper Dave and God
We often ask ourselves why we should listen to God? Why should we listen to his word and do what it says? Why should we wait until marriage to have sex or avoid drugs and alcohol abuse, for example? What is wrong with gay marriage anyway? Who says abortion is wrong? Why should we takeContinue reading “Chopper Dave and God”

HowContinue reading “Set the Captives Free”

Anger
Today is the Fourth of July, and we are reminded that it was anger at the British government that led to the Declaration of Independence, the American Revolutionary War, and ultimately to the formation of the United States. Anger is not always a bad thing. Everyone has experienced anger. It is something that is commonContinue reading “Anger”
The Gospel in Exodus: Lord of the Storm
Watching the news these days, I cannot help but notice how unsettling it is. Putin is threatening to invade the Ukraine, global climate change continues to wreak havoc, the ocean appears to be dying because of pollution and overfishing, the poles are melting, the stock market is crashing every other day, the west has wildfiresContinue reading “The Gospel in Exodus: Lord of the Storm”
The Gospel in Exodus: The Man God Uses
When God calls Moses at the burning bush, Moses objects, giving reasons why he is not the one for this mission. We often do the same when God calls us to a mission. Who is the man God calls? What is God looking for in a man before He calls him to a mission? DoContinue reading “The Gospel in Exodus: The Man God Uses”
