Why am I going tomorrow? Glad you asked. I just re-read an article by Andrew Knight on the ‘Four Reasons Why We Leave’. I have many reasons but Knight’s are like mine and I’ll summarize. #1, “We leave because God saves us to send us”. Not every Sunday-goer is aware. We love being spared what…

I experienced two things today. I don’t know how to measure thoughts but a quick google measures that, according to research,, the average person has approximately 60,000 thoughts each day. Here are two of mine. Carmen Goes is running for Congress. She has good ideas and her platform is consistent with conservative and Godly values….

I think that Jesus is inferred, implied, present, and described, at some level of disclosure, in every book of the Bible. Jesus is the Word and He is the Word of God. The Gospel of John begins with, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God….

“Happy are the people who walk with integrity, who live according to the teachings of the Eternal.” – Psalm 119:1 The Voice. Something needs to happen once we believe. We are walking in integrity and living a different way. To know what to tweak we read the Bible – the teachings of the Eternal. There…

I’ve done it again. Many days of good teaching/ideas/suggestions but no time to write. I’ll just touch on a couple… Our moods can go up and down. I know we were created by God but some have extra sensitivities. We refer to those, as children, as being moody or hyperactive while they are just being…

Potpourri means an assortment. It is an assortment of dried petals and spices but I’m looking for a way to give you some thoughts to take over and chew on. God’s Word is constantly inspiring. It is solid truth but seems to morph as we grow. (I don’t know if believers in Jesus can shrink…

Years ago I remember sounding out the Mission Impossible tune (theme music) on a piano. It is very distinctive. I have always enjoyed the action films of the James Bond genre. I don’t know why except the good guy is amazing and always wins. A hundred bullets can fly over Ethan or James head but…

WAS JESUS NICE? 7/30/24 I’m angry. Daily I ask God for the mind of Christ. I want to treat fellow believers and non-believers as Jesus would. Was Jesus nice? What did a holy God, embodied in a physical form, do when confronted with evil? I’m not talking about being offended but let’s examine a couple…

I like the term focus. I’ve been reading about extremes and how our nervous systems can wire our personalities. For instance, introverts may have more sensitivity to sound stimuli. The shyness is a protective internal device. It is like fight or flight. There are a million examples but what is most important is that God…

What is this thing I keep thinking about? I’m waking up and there is a knot in my stomach. Something has happened to someone I love. Yes, I pray. I’m moving slower and more thoughtfully. I’m distracted. I’m trying not to cry or yell. This feeling is unfamiliar. I’m usually following marching orders…left, right, left,…
