Due to my travel schedule this fall, I have not had time to post weekly. I will try to catch up. One will post today and another tomorrow. In my last blog, we saw that David’s Psalm 122 discusses the house of the Lord. At that time, it was the Tabernacle. Psalm 127 also discussesContinue reading “Who’s Incharge Anyway?”

When Dreams Die
About a year ago, I went through a season of extreme discouragement. It is a time I hope I never have to repeat. There were moments when I thought I might not survive spiritually or mentally. I suppose, at some level, I was in a season of depression. One might wonder what brought on suchContinue reading “When Dreams Die”
Why Sheep?
I have often laughed at the fact that Scripture refers to Christ’s followers as sheep. There are many reasons why this is an appropriate analogy. We will get into that later. The fundamental fact is sheep need a shepherd. They are not intelligent animals. Some might say they are dumb. I have heard farmers commentContinue reading “Why Sheep?”

Why are denominations often vilified for what they are not and never celebrated for what they are. In this blog, I want to explain why I believe denominations bring unity to theContinue reading “Do Denominations Divide Us?”
The Land of Could Have Been
“It could have been” are perhaps the four saddest words in the English lexicon. The older I get, the more I see potential wasted and moments not seized. Speaking directly to my fellow Pastors, we live at the crossroads of “may be” and “could have been.” It is a life a death struggle that weContinue reading “The Land of Could Have Been”
Out of Focus
Recently I have noticed my eyes moving out of focus. I look across a room, and it seems fuzzy. If I blink, they move back into focus. I am sure that this is a function of age or my negligence of wearing my glasses as often as I should. Whatever the reason, it is aContinue reading “Out of Focus”
