“Good” Friday
Somewhere in the midst of the dinner, prayer and the garden, Thursday turned into Friday. Whether you count days like the Jews, as if the day began at sunset, or you account for time like we do today, marking the beginning of Friday at midnight, either way the change of days is just a [...]
Good Friday - Sermon Preached on 4/3/2015
John 18:1-6
When he had finished praying, Jesus left with his disciples and crossed the Kidron Valley. On the other side there was a garden, and he and his disciples went into it.
2 Now Judas, who betrayed him, knew the place, because Jesus had often met there with his disciples. 3 So Judas came to the [...]

Like the Disciples

Whose God is it? - Ponderings on March 14, 2015
Today I was reading 2 Kings 19 and as I stumbled on verse 4 (2 Kings 19:4), I noticed that Hezekiah’s men called God “the Lord YOUR God” (my emphasis) when they were talking to Isaiah. It sounded like they were quoting Hezekiah. It made me pretty sad.
Seriously . . . [...]

It Hurts - March 12, 2015
I’m obviously a people pleaser. I want folks to think well of me, and it hurts when I’m misunderstood. The worst part is, most of time I don’t really care. But there are a few people (most of them related) that I value their opinion. So when I’m misunderstood or the [...]

Habakkuk - from Depression to Praising
A Sermon Preached on March 11, 2015
My favorite book in the Bible is Romans . . . I particularly love Romans 8, but it seems like very often God leads me to the book of Habakkuk. Habakkuk doesn’t really get much notoriety. Folks don’t preach from this short book very often, but [...]

Life Changes - March 11, 2015
Today my mother-in-law moved in with me. I feel so bad for her. She has dementia or alzheimers or something. Whatever it is, she really wants to live at her house on her own, and she just can’t anymore, and that makes her mad and sad.
She had been living with [...]

Just Blogging - March 2, 2015
I’ve had this blog for several years now and just used it sporadically when something hit me. I’m not sure that anyone ever really reads my thoughts. For some reason this week I’ve been wondering what would happen if I shared something every day (or almost every day). So during March, I’ll [...]

Not the Best Day in the World - March 4, 2015
It all started early this morning when I woke up late. I had a few things I needed to do, but most of them got ignored so I could get out the door. I wasn’t looking forward to driving 30 minutes one way just to turn around and come 30 minutes back to [...]
