As I read, study, and meditate upon the Word, I have discovered two very specific questions that I find most compelling; both concern our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The first is recorded in John 18:38 and involves His encounter with Pontius Pilate. Pilate is attempting to discover just who this Rabbi claims to be, and why He [...]

Last week we ended our conversation with a word from Pastor Charles Stanley on Building Excellent Relationships.  In 1 Thessalonians 4:9 - 10 we learn that we are to Love one Another, and indeed we are to EXCEL at it! What does it really mean to love one another and how do we excel at doing so? In truth, we can only excel at loving one another [...]

In the shadow of another Easter season, where I was once again reminded of exactly what Jesus endured because of my sin, I am reminded of my own death and resurrection as a result of His. I was dead in my trespasses and sins, destined to be eternally separated from the Father, but because of [...]

Good Morning Men of Intention, I read an article the other day from the Denison Forum entitled "5 Prayers for Eulogy Virtues to Prepare for your Funeral" (denisonforum.org March 9, 2023).  No, I am not passing in the near future...as far as I know, but as I read the article in light of Easter, I considered the value of these [...]

Last week we were chatting about how we can experience the peace of God in the days in which we find ourselves; troubling times of intense spiritual warfare. Admittedly, it is not possible apart from a proper view of our Omnipotent, Omnipresent and Omniscient God. We must be students of the Word so we can [...]

INTENTIONAL men of God know that they are His Ambassadors (1 Corinthians 5:20) and as such need to be prepared to engage and impact their spheres of influence in every moment of their day (1 Peter 3:15). Last week we talked about the resolve required to be the kind of man that God created us to be. We spoke of four [...]

Would you agree that the collapse of Judeo - Christian culture in America is in large part a result of men NOT playing the role that God designed, created, and equipped them to play within their respective spheres of influence? And by the way, He modeled it for us during His incarnation and by observing the triune nature [...]

Last week we discovered that Psalm 32:8 & 9 is a powerful passage on divine guidance for our lives. It contains both a promise and a warning. The promise is simply this: "I will instruct you and teach you in the way that you should go; I will advise you with My eye upon you." The warning is simply this: "Do [...]
