I recently ended a sermon series titled Jesus Says at Living Word. The whole series was intended to aim us at the power of God’s words. Here’s what I believe about the words of God. I believe that God’s word has power. It has the power to do exactly what it says. Like when God spoke in Genesis Let there be……
I’ve recently been asked if Christians are allowed to be happy. It may seem like a strange question to some while a valid one to others, so I thought I’d share a little of my insights on the matter. Let’s start by looking at both sides of the matter:
There’s a story in the bible about a man named Jonah. He’s probably most well-known for his failure to follow God’s command. He was supposed to go to a place called Nineveh, but he really didn’t want to. As a matter of fact, when he was called to Arise and go to Nineveh, he decided…
Perhaps you’ve heard some of the church people in your life referring to something called Epiphany lately. Maybe you are a little cloudy on its meaning. Don’t worry you’re definitely not alone. I would venture to guess that many followers of Jesus don’t even know what it really is all about. Here’s a quick look – Epiphany – We use…
I grew up hearing a phrase that echoes to this day, It’s not what you say but how you say it. I could not agree more! So much of our communication is nonverbal. Our words are only part of our message and the tone of voice and the look on our faces can easily tell another story.

It’s hard to believe that we’re nearing the end of the year, isn’t it? We’re already nearly midway through the last month of 2014. Before you know it, 2014 will be a thing of the past and we’ll be at the beginning of a new journey called 2015.
My family loves to go to Disney world for vacation. I’ve been going there since I was a small child. While the Disney corporation is constantly trying to be on the cutting edge of technology and products, there is something about their Orlando-based park that is a staple to say the least. Every time we…
Over the past several weeks I’ve been growing increasingly aware of a problem in our society. There are women in our world who are devalued and even mistreated just because they are women. There are women who believe that they only hold value for their bodies and the pleasure they give to men with their bodies.
I love Thanksgiving. It’s a great holiday and a wonderful chance to get together with family to give thanks for life’s many blessings. One tradition we have when my wife’s family gets together is to answer the question, What are you thankful for?
