“Blessed are those who hunger for righteousness, for you will be filled” There have been numerous times in my life when I have had to go back to someone and make things right. Doing the right thing, especially if it costs you, is not necessarily something most people strive for in this day and age. […]
Balanced life
Do you tend to compartmentalize all the different areas of your life? Career goes there, relationship goes here, spirituality fits there, and health . Or maybe your compartmentalizing is temporal instead of spatial in your thinking. During the workday you do what you must, this evening you’ll do what you love and have some fun, […]
What is Truth
Over the years my wife and I have tried to guide people to the truth of the gospel message. Some have said “Yes Lord” even on their death bed. Men and Woman have sought the truth and meaning of life since time began. Even Pilot sought the truth, “What have you done?” he asks when […]
Moving ON
“I am the resurrection, and the life; he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: and whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die” For many of us the hour of departure has arrived, eternity rises in the distance and yet Jesus’ words ringing in our ear. Time drawing […]

True Religion
Well we dated as Salvation army, were married as Anglicans, sojourned for awhile as Presbyterian’s, saved as Baptists, spirit filled as Pentecostal’s, now we have given up on labels and just call ourselves Christians seeking a closer relationship with Jesus. For many of us the quest for Jesus has led us through the many mansions […]
Mercy
Well life moved on, we started having children, and like all couples there were some bumps in the road. Lets face it every one of us from time to time needs a touch of Mercy and Grace. We mess things up with our relationships, we make mistakes and do things and say things we regret. […]
Only a Dad
There is a lot of ministry today available on the Father heart of God, and rightfully so. Our earthly fathers play a particularly important role in our developing lives. So many of us have not had a good experience with our earthly fathers and as such we have a distorted view of our Heavenly father […]
Generation Gap
The kids started growing up and well what goes around comes around. My children today are living responsible successful lives, and I am proud of them all. But like most families in their younger years at times, they gave me a run for my money. I remember one night just getting into bed, tired after […]
