Indescribable Gift!
2 Cor 9:15 15 Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift! NIV I think we have all heard the stories that came out of Black Friday this year as people positioned themselves to storm the stores in anticipation of all the great deals that would be available. Now the thought behind all these deals [...]
Dial it Up!
The headline in today’s news stated that Tim Tebow, quarterback for the Denver Broncos, should dial down the faith. My questions is, “What has the young man done that seems to upset so many people in the world today?” A few weeks ago the headlines were all about “tebowing.” Apparently in one game when Tim [...]
A Message To The Postmodern Church
THE LAST-DAY CHURCH By David Wilkerson Published: 11/16/2011 – 12:00am I believe God’s vision for His last-day church is based on His revealed Word—because the Bible clearly outlines what the church of Jesus Christ will be like just prior to His coming. The church in America is far from what God envisioned it to be. [...]
Happy Thanksgiving 2011
As I reflect back on 2011 I wanted to stop a minute and just give thanks. I am so very thankful that God loves me, thank you Father for your divine hand that rest upon my life and my family’s lives. I am thankful that you loved me enough to send Jesus Christ all those [...]
Expect
This past week Han and I traveled to Colorado Springs to attend the EXPECT Conference for pastors. While we were there we had some time to visit with old friends; Sue & Lyndon Bacon and Mike & Lynne Baumgardner. What a wonderful time of fellowship it was. One day Sue & Lyndon showed us around [...]
A Word
A Word to Pastors and Teachers in the Assemblies of God “Please get yourself in the word, study to show yourself approved, a workman that needs not be ashamed. Pray, get God’s word for your heart. Don’t just get another good sermon idea, get what God has birthed in your heart and don’t come to [...]
Spiritual Rebellion
This has been a bitter sweet week for me. I have had a wonderful time with the Spirit of God as I have prepared my sermon for Sunday, but then received tragic news of moral failure in ministry. Although not new revelation or theology, it is so important that we understand that a relationship with [...]
Through the Valley
Gerson Maso is a member of Angle Lake Neighborhood Church and a friend. This soft spoken but passionate man is such a pleasure to know. Gerson came to us from Africa as a refugee and has written his story in a book entitled, “Through the Valley: The Journey of an African Refugee.” I highly recommend [...]
An Excuse for Sound Doctrine
It is very perplexing to hear things like, “Well it is giving us the opportunity to have the discussion.” I am hearing this a lot lately when church leaders are asked what they think of Rob Bell’s latest book, “Love Wins.” Instead of taking a stand for righteousness and declaring the work heresy; it sounds [...]
Stinking Thinking
I went to a training event on “Leadership” the other day sponsored by a church organization. During the class the instructor made this comment. “I grew up listening to the old songs of the church and The Gaithers. I still love the music very much, but when you listen to this old style of music [...]
