“From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, ‘Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.’” Matthew 4:17 This whole protest thing has me messed up, not from bewilderment of “autonomous zones” but whether Christians should be part of any protest. I wrote recently that the political, social, and economic problems of today were … Continue reading 2020-06-15 To March Or Not To March.

“And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold.” Matthew 24:12 I don’t know about you, but it seems to me that end times passages are starting to look more and more familiar.

“But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!” Matthew 23:13a Some friends and I were talking yesterday, and somehow the topic of apostate churches came up.

“The sluggard says, “There is a lion in the road!” Proverbs 26:13 I got to thinking about social media yesterday. For all I talk about following Jesus, I sure can get sucked into the hype of the day and ignore him altogether. I’ll sit down for a bit and remember that I have neglected my … Continue reading 2020-06-08 It’s Time For Change.

“The Jews picked up stones again to stone him.” John 10:31 I’m amazed at the reaction of many people I know regarding the George Floyd protests. Not just a couple people I know are quite vocal in their approval at the violence of the demonstrators. They say that big change only happens as a result … Continue reading 2020-06-04 Uproar!

“If you love me, you will keep my commandments.” John 14:15 “Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, that the Son does likewise.” John 5:19 I’ve been thinking a great deal about the George … Continue reading 2020-06-03 What Would Jesus Do?

“In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.” Matthew 5:16 Yesterday we covered Ephesians 4 in our home church.

“Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!” Psalm 100:1 Good Morning! It’s finally starting to feel like summer here in Central Minnesota!
