(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”

The Road to Real Life Change
Change is hard, especially in the right direction. Why is that? Could it be there is an unseen force trying to push us away from God? Maybe we are moving away from God on our own. Maybe the culture is pulling us away. Whatever the case, it is clear we need help.
Remember Who You Are
We are all looking for life, the best life. We want joy. Where can we find this life? Where is true lasting joy to be found? The Bible tells us the life and joy we are all looking for can only be found in one place, in Jesus.
There is Always Tomorrow
Sometimes we feel down. The weight of the world, the things we said and did today, our relationships with others, whatever it might be – sometimes it gets us down. But hope springs eternal for those in Christ, and there is always tomorrow. God will never give up on us.
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?

Whose Science

Set the Captives Free
The Hamas attack on Israel caught us by surprise. “How could people act so terribly, do such terrible things?” we ask ourselves. When a daughter or a son tells us they want a sex change operation and they no longer consider themselves to be what they were born, we wonder “What is going on? HowContinue reading “Set the Captives Free”
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”
