Religion or Relationship?
Have you ever heard someone say about a person “they’re very religious”? Then some people apply the term to some activity or habit, like “I ‘religiously’ follow my diet.” What do you think of when you hear that word? What does “religion” mean, and why does it mean what it does to different people? I … Continue reading Religion or Relationship?
Only One Answer
Today, many young people believe - wrongly - that socialism is the answer to America's problems. They believe that things like "Medicare for All" and "The Equality Act" and the "For the People" act are going to resolve the current issues of racism, recover the economy, and make things better for American citizens.

Fallow Ground
From my Worthy Brief daily devotion: Hosea 10:12 Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till he come and rain righteousness upon you. Revival is that sovereign work of God in which He visits His own people, restoring and releasing them … Continue reading Fallow Ground
Blessings
Sometimes blessings don't always look like a blessing when they come. In fact, they may look like more trouble, more inconvenience, another circumstance to fret and worry over.

Church goers being fined $500 for attending a drive-in service. A judge in Michigan decreeing that anyone can be arrested and jailed for suspected … Continue reading Freedom with Danger
The Building is Not the Church
Many church buildings will be empty Easter Sunday. No services, no communion service, no traditional Easter hymns, no beautiful lilies, no sermons glorifying the Resurrected Christ and calling all to seek Him. Just silence. The most sacred day of the year will still arrive. Sunday is coming. The event in history it memorializes still happened. … Continue reading The Building is Not the Church
Callouses
My hands have become soft! Before I retired I used all sorts of hand tools, screwdrivers, hammers, wrenches, and occasionally a shovel or spade. My hands were calloused. The places on my palms and fingers that received the greatest friction most often became covered with a tough, thick layer of skin, and it wasn't necessary … Continue reading Callouses
