Encouragement Caution!

I love Joshua chapter one.  It is about a young man who has been the apprentice of a “seasoned” prophet and leader.   You know all about this one.  It’s Moses the “journeyman” and Joshua the apprentice.   What a team!  They have been together for… Continue Reading “Encouragement Caution!”

There were two prodigal son’s!

Out of the three parables found in Luke 15 we are most familiar with the prodigal son.  You know who I’m talking about – the youngest.  He was a young punk, spoiled brat kind of kid who wanted his inheritance early.  He was granted his… Continue Reading “There were two prodigal son’s!”

Bad Call and No Second Chance!

I can’t imagine how victimized Armando Galarraga felt.  I don’t think anyone can imagine how he felt.  But then again I can’t imagine how umpire Jim Joyce felt either.  I don’t think anyone can imagine how he felt.  The Detroit Tigers was playing the Cleveland Indians. … Continue Reading “Bad Call and No Second Chance!”

A Relaxing Break

Journey to Pentecost

May 22, 2010         Acts 1.12-14 You remember how it felt!  You misbehaved and put into a corner.  You had to wait.  Wait and wait.  It was as though every minute was an hour.   You remember!  Waiting in the doctors office.  Waiting.  It seemed like… Continue Reading “Journey to Pentecost”

Journey to Pentecost

May 21, 2010     Matthew 28.11-15 Lies.   Without a doubt one of the sharpest weapons of the enemy.  We have all been victims of lies.  Intentional and unintentional lies – they still do undeniable damage.  Often times, as in the case with Jesus and the… Continue Reading “Journey to Pentecost”

Journey to Pentecost

May 20, 2010    Matthew 28.8 This particular verse engages two of the most demonstrative emotions we can experience.   Fear and joy.  Fear on one hand and joy on the other.  Mary Magdalene and Mary (the mother of Mark) had just encountered an empty tomb… Continue Reading “Journey to Pentecost”
