There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love. 1 John 4:18 A lot of people live in fear (the scared kind).  Sure, we need to fear (the respect kind) but we don’t need to fear…

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. “The Lord is my portion,” says my soul, “therefore I will hope in him.” Lamentations 3:22-24 Somehow God got a bad reputation of being a cosmic killjoy that hold a grudge.  That can really warp…

Here is a video. Here is the text from it. What do you think? What if I told you, Jesus came to abolish religion? What if I told you getting you to vote republican, really wasn’t his mission? Because republican doesn’t automatically mean Christian, And just because you call some people blind, doesn’t automatically give…

Sometimes we are exclusive with our friends. I’m part of a fairly elite circle of people actually. We do fairly elite circle of people thing at fairly elite circle of people parties. But Jesus was a friend of sinners, the despised, and the hated. He didn’t shelter himself to protect his holiness. Rather, his holiness…

In the midwest, students are spending the bulk of their prayers on one thing: snow.  Did I say students? I meant to say teachers.  Everyday I get up and check the 10 day forecast, right after my awesome quiet time and p90x of course, which I NEVER miss.  🙂 I’m looking for one thing… the…

My dog won’t stop barking.  I’m pretty sure my neighbors probably hate him. He’s just doing his job though.  I mean really, it’s not like he can bark quietly.  “Shh, Ringo, a little quieter please.” Have you ever heard a dog whisper, except the kind that have been debarked? Which in that case it is really sad…

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. 2 Corinthians 5:17 When you buy a new car- equipped with all the bells and whistles- how often do you feel the urge to park it permanently so you can cruise around in your old…

Tonight, the Razorbacks are playing the Cotton Bowl.  The plan is to watch it, but not by myself.  Life is too short to be alone in a dark room watching tv.  Something to think about.  WPS!

When bums come knocking at 2:00 am, it get’s the family talking about other stories. There was another time when someone came by my aunt and uncle’s house.  This time it was in the morning.  He asked for some money or food.  My uncle sent him away.  Then he felt bad.  Probably because my aunt…

So what’s less freaky than a stranger knocking on your door at 2:00 am? (Foreign missionaries aren’t allowed to answer that one.) Remember the whole my-kid-bonked-her-noggin-while-visiting-family incident.  She fell asleep pretty quick.  It was about 2:13 am.  I was still wired from the blood curdling scream.  I had decided to sleep on the couch next to…
