Deuteronomy - discover rhyme and reason for your life in this old book

Just imagine if God said something like this: I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death , blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live… Wow, that almost sounds like God says you can choose between life and death. But there are a lot of people who call themselves Christians, who say that everyt...

Cow secretions and bee vomit. Yum, yum. I don’t know about you, but I’ll be goin’ back for seconds. Oh yeah! But first, here’s my desire as I share a little something with you today: Let my teaching drop as the rain, My speech distill as the dew, As raindrops on the tender herb, And as showers on the grass. I can’t (and don’t) take credit for that most pleasant...

When you take God out of the equation, the question of “right and wrong” is a moot point. It isn’t objective morality at that point. It’s opinion. And guess what? If your opinion differs from mine, all you have to do to win the day is be the stronger one. That’s the “beauty” of natural selection in process. It’s interesting how often those who reject...

Tucson, Arizona. Central New Mexico. Music. Moonlight. Dan Fogelberg. Storytelling. All parts of “the road” from a long time ago. And, early this morning, I thought about an incredible, singular experience I had during a full moon drive. Strangely enough, it was a motion-sensor light that triggered that full moon memory. Huh? A motion-sensor light and a full moon drive? Yeah, I got out of bed and...

“ There are things that we’re not going to understand along the way. You have to trust that God knows what He’ s doing and working out His plan for your life. His plan is bigger. His plan is greater.” OK, that appears to be (I say appears to be because I found it on social media) a quote from the number one authority on God’s plan, Joel Osteen. Let’s compare that with what...

You’ve heard this expression: The only thing that stays the same is change. Right? Well, it’s the only thing because there are two things that stay the same. Continuity and change. Wait! How can that be? Two things stay the same because there’s only one thing that changes? Ow…my head hurts. And I didn’t even have champagne last night. Continuity and change are two sid...

The Simple Truth The Christian faith is based on one thing and one thing only…the simple truth that Jesus is the only way to eternal life in Heaven. And His love wins out over all the sins of every person who ever lived or will live. A loving Christian will want you to know that truth, if you don’t already. But a loving Christian won’t try to force anyone to choose Jesus. Jesus d...

Is there really such a thing as everlasting love? Well, if I tell you there is…do you want any part of it? Or are you afraid you’re not worthy of the whole idea of everlasting love? If so, you’re not alone. No one is worthy of it, but… …the good news is…no one receives this kind of love based on his or her own worthiness or merit. Thank God. The whole world has...
