The book of Revelation is known for the Bible's most detailed explanation of the apocalypse. However, in the book's second and third chapters, there are seven letters to seven churches.

The Sins Of A Nation
"I quit my job today." "What happened?" "My boss is a jerk! He got mad at something and went on a tyraide! He just started yelling and screaming. No one is going to talk to me that way!" "Was he right?" "What?" "Was he right? He sholdn't of been throwing a tantrum, but regardless of … Continue reading The Sins Of A Nation
There Is Nothing
Elijah, the great prophet of the Old Testament, is an unknown when he comes on the scene. The first time we read of him, he tells king Ahab that it will not rain unless he (Elijah) says so (1 Kings 17:1). The Bible does not speak of Ahab's reaction. I reckon that is because Ahab … Continue reading There Is Nothing
God Needs Gap People
God may be looking for someone to tell Him what for. Upon hearing that you may think, "We should not talk to God that way, it is disrespectful." Or, "I'd never tell God off." As a rule, giving God advice, may not be a good idea. However, there was a time when God looked for … Continue reading God Needs Gap People
There Comes A Point
God is love (1 John 4:8), but God is also "a consuming fire" (Deuteronomy 4:24; Hebrews 12:29). Both aspects, love and consuming fire, are seen in the book of Jeremiah. Israel had forsaken God and fallen into sin. The Israelites were so far into sin; they were no longer embarrassed by anything anymore (Jeremiah 6:15; … Continue reading There Comes A Point

Once either person loses faith in the other, it is a long, hard road returning to a working relationship. … Continue reading Trust – Where Are You?
To The Graduates Of 2020
We had the pleasure of attending my granddaughter Brooklynn's High School Graduation Ceremony last week. The local homeschool group hosted the event. Our State Senator, Phil Boots, gave the speech. In our area, some of the high schools have not yet held graduation. Others had online ceremonies. Still, others only allowed immediate family in the … Continue reading To The Graduates Of 2020
This Guy Isn’t Any Good
While out of town last week, I thought I would get my haircut. The young cosmetologist and I hit it off immediately. Somehow we quickly discovered we had some eating habits in common – neither of us like coffee or eggs. The conversation flowed from there to more personal things like family and her ex. … Continue reading This Guy Isn’t Any Good
Love the sinner; hate the sin
They happened in homes across the land, some have even occurred in restaurants, workplaces, and other places of business. They are called interventions. During an intervention, friends, family and loved ones will gather to talk to someone about how they are ruining their life and possibly the lives of those around them. The group will … Continue reading Love the sinner; hate the sin
Easter The Holiday
Easter has always been an intriguing holiday for me. Not what the holiday is about; the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, but how people celebrate the day. By saying how people celebrate the day, I am not talking about bunnies and eggs; I am referring to how some will give the day reverence, yet ignore its … Continue reading Easter The Holiday
