Dave’s Monday Blast – November 6, 2023

We are living in tumultuous times! The ongoing conflict in Israel has once again affirmed that God's Chosen People, whether living in the Promised Land or in enclaves around the world, are despised and rejected simply because they are His. The Denison Forum comments from an article dated 10-11-23: "From Egypt's genocide in the time of Moses to the [...]

Like the Minutemen of old we must be ready at any moment to provide an answer for the hope that is within us. Last week we examined verses from the Old Testament (Nehemiah 4:17) and the New Testament (2 Timothy 2:4)  to affirm that as Ambassadors of God our JOB is to be Influencers for the Kingdom, and as such, whenever [...]

Last week we were chatting a bit about the Minutemen from the American Revolution. Citizen soldiers always prepared to defend the boundaries of their habitation, like the people of Israel under Nehemiah (Nehemiah 4:17), and the Church as described in 2 Timothy 2:4. One of the challenges we face today as the Church is finding ways to tactfully share our Christian Convictions [...]

I have an academic background in history, having taught in that field for years. My passion was American Studies in general, and the early years of our founding as a nation in particular. Many of you will remember learning about the so-called Minutemen during our revolution. They were ordinary citizens who banded together to form an effective army. [...]

In Proverbs 16:17 - 19 we read: The highway of the upright is to depart from evil; He who watches his way preserves his life. Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before stumbling. It is better to be humble in spirit with the lowly than to divide the spoil with the proud. Translation, PRIDE is DANGEROUS. It is something [...]

Scripture is very definite about EVERYTHING! Our God is a Word Smith, an excellent communicator who desires for us to fully understand His will and ways. With that in mind, I have been impressed of late with the need to consider how often the Scriptures admonish us to Take a Stand. Of course there are [...]

At His ascension from the Mount of Olives, Jesus commanded His disciples to go into all the world and make disciples. In Matthew 28:19 & 20 we learn about this mandate and understand it to be more than a simple admonishment to share the Good News of His Resurrection. As His disciples, we are to be about [...]

Last week we were chatting about Having Grace for Others (Title taken from First15). We took a quick look at John 13:34 - 35 where Jesus was issuing a new commandment for His new covenant; love one another. In so doing, we would be dispensing the kind of grace that our Heavenly Father abundantly demonstrates throughout Scripture. As we strive to [...]

Dave’s Monday Blast – September 11, 2023

Good Morning Men of Intention, I read an article the other day from First15 (a daily devotional) entitled Having Grace for Others. It was based upon this teaching by Jesus found in John13:34 - 35:  "A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people [...]

Dave’s Monday Blast – September 4, 2023

I grew up in rural Minnesota. I have vivid memories of tornado seasons. One strong memory I have is watching the sky, ominously black, the air thick and still, natural sounds diminished or gone as if all of creation was anticipating what was to come. All day long, the radio would broadcast urgent instructions on [...]
