I know that God is a good communicator. He never intends for His “plan” to be a mystery. The fact that I don’t always understand what is going on simply shows that I am not a very good listener. I also realize (not to my credit) that at times my faith is shallow. There are […]
Truett Cathy passed away a week or so ago. My first experience with Truett Cathy was not necessarily a positive one. You see I was REALLY hungry after church and headed over to this new restaurant everyone was raving about. I pulled up with my blood sugar “flatlined” only to realize…IT WAS CLOSED! The sign […]
Happy Labor day! I suspect most of you are super busy, but hopefully not at work! Habits…good and bad. I love reading just about anything Max Lucado writes. There are many remarkable Christian Thinkers to choose from when one is seeking insight into a particular area of Christian living. But I seek out the likes […]
O.K…I believe that I have the right day…it is Monday! LOL! After I sent my Monday message last Thursday, I had a few comments about how we do not need another Monday in any given week. I certainly agree…but it got me thinking about time in general. Recently I read this comment by a brother […]
Last week we chatted a bit about the need to be Men who are INTENTIONAL about praying. We are admonished to do so throughout the Scriptures and see it modeled for us by countless men and women within those same pages of His Word. There is no denying its importance and efficacy. But the question […]
During our study together on Saturday (A Man and His Traps) we were challenged to confront the deep and surface Idols in our lives that keep us from Intimacy with the Almighty. In Luke 24:44-53 we are reminded that to experience an abundant and effective Christian life we must utilize the power of the Holy […]
This Saturday is our “A Man and His Traps” event. It dawned on me that I had not mentioned to you an important detail for the day…make certain you bring your eye and ear protection. Of course this advice is appropriate s for all men who are INTENTIONAL about living their lives in such a way that glorifies our […]
I was reading a devotion this a.m. from Charles Stanley concerning how to experience Christ’s peace. His thoughts were taken from John 14:27, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.” […]
We were created in His image for His purposes. I wonder at times if we think His purposes are not in our best interests? If we choose to follow our preferences instead of living in obedience we will out on His incredible plan for our lives. Every day we must choose one or the other. […]
We’ve all heard those jokes about men who refuse to stop and ask for directions. In reality, there’s probably a bit of truth to this stereotype, but it isn’t limited to males. Plenty of men and women in this world zoom along without showing down to ask for guidance. If you were to look at […]
