Sometimes individuals think they have found a “new truth” and that they have discovered a “new line of argumentation” that irrefutably confirms and defends their “new truth.” Such is the case with advocates of homosexuality. They strain constantly to find justification (even Biblical justification, in some cases) for their choice of lifestyle. And, they think that if they can back heterosexuals into…

Homosexuals and their advocates continue to push their lifestyle as an equivalent to heterosexuality, and some of their arguments are pointed right back at heterosexuals, in an effort to silence them. Unfortunately, too many have been swayed by these flawed arguments (because they can sound convincing), including many of our youth. One such argument in recent years has asked heterosexuals, “When did…
If you turn on the news anymore, every national story seems to include some element of how Washington politicians do not get along. It has caused me to wonder if we can sometimes translate those kinds of relationships into the church. Our government leaders seem to never have anything nice to say about each other.

One of the greatest collective efforts of God’s people in Biblical history was the rebuilding of the wall around Jerusalem in only fifty-two days under the direction of Nehemiah. The third chapter of Nehemiah is an exciting scene to envision, as each family and group was assigned a certain section of the wall to repair. It is heartening to read that it…

Unfortunately, you have to wait for that day to arrive to enjoy its benefits. Just wait…wait…wait. How blessed we are…
It absolutely blows my mind how wrapped up in themselves so many people are today. When I was a kid, if we saw a car coming and we were on or near the road, we would get out of the way as quickly as possible. Today, if someone is in the street and sees a car coming, they have no compulsion at…
Jesus was eating in the house of a Pharisee named Simon, when a “woman of the city” came and expressed her deep love for Jesus. How did she do that? Notice Jesus’ words to Simon: “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no water for My feet, but she has washed My feet with her tears and…
Each year for our lectureship, we move our midweek service from Wednesday night to Thursday night, which means we don’t have a service on Wednesday night. That day just never feels right, because we are so accustomed to meeting with the church on Wednesday night but we don’t meet that day. The whole day is just “thrown off’ for me. I wonder…
