May the Lord grant us grace to pursue holiness without the illusion of perfection. I have a friend who refuses to go to church because "it is full of hypocrites." This is not uncommon. Many reason, “Nobody’s perfect, and the church is full of hypocrites so why bother with organized religion? I’ll just follow my …

The Myth Of Secularism
The myth of secularism is that we are our own gods, that everything depends on our own strength, our own will, and our one vote. It's an arrogant lie that crushes us and puts an unbearable weight on our shoulders. We are not the source of our greatness, our looks, our wealth, our humor - …
Fix Your Eye Upon Him
1 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, 2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. 3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking …
Heading for The Hills
My son woke me up to the reality the end times could be very near. He's noticed how much vitriol there is against Israel lately (Of course he's seeing more of this than I would see, he lives in Madison WI).I told him, if one reads or listens to the media, it does seem like …
Perspective Matters
It's not funny, but it is interesting how, after years of listening to the derogatory name-calling and seeing the disgusting, biased headlines, my perspective on politics has changed. I don't know if you've noticed, but I've taken on a more optimistic viewpoint. It's not that anything has changed externally—it hasn't! In fact, the hate and …
Reading God’s Word
Imagine people today being taught Psalm 34:1-10 and all the principles of God. I have friends who say "they don't believe in the old Testament." Others say they don't believe in anything but "the red letter words of Jesus." And others say they believe in God and Jesus but not the scriptures as the "the …
Never to Be Forgotten?
So this morning I woke up early and did my devotion to God's word, Psalm 34, primarily vs 16. Here I was reminded of a fundamental biblical reality often watered down in our day, in our culture: God is FOR the righteous and AGAINST evildoers.We know the "goodness" of God, It's preached almost everywhere. Righteousness …
Living Faithfully in a Liberal Enclave: A Biblical Perspective
In many parts of the Western world today, Christians find themselves in cultural settings dominated by progressive, secular, or liberal worldviews. These environments—often urban centers, university towns, or certain professional spheres—emphasize values like individual autonomy, moral relativism, expansive personal freedoms (especially regarding sexuality, gender, and identity), skepticism toward traditional religion, and rapid social change. While …

“Against Every Sin — For Salvation Alone”
I’m not here to hate anyone. I’m against all sin, including homosexual practice, because the Bible calls it sin, and I’m for salvation because Jesus died to deliver people from every sin and to give us new life in Him. This is the only real change that lasts. Biblically, and by this I mean literally …
Clueless About Christianity
Do you know that there are people, groups, communities, even nations of people who haven’t heard the gospel of Jesus Christ? I’m writing about them being clueless. Im talking about grown men and women in their 40’s and 50’s that have no idea about what goes on in church. They don’t own bibles and if …
