It’s been said, “The human tongue is a deadly weapon whether it is blunt or sharp.” How true that is. It never ceases to amaze me, how we as a society are so quick to cut each other down with our words. The news media has turned from fact sharing to gossip spreading, as well [...]

It has been said “Laziness is an overwhelming love for physical calm.” Many times either in our Christian walk or as a church we may be tempted not to try new things for fear that it may disrupt the calm of the status quo. However, we must remember that Christ did not die in order [...]
It has been said, “If you want to make an enemy, just convince a fool that he’s wrong.” This may be our frame of thought when it comes to evangelism. Many times we are timid to share our faith, because we are worried that we will lose a friend and instead make an enemy. There [...]
As many of you know I love books. I have tried to make it a daily affair to read a little from great books along with my Scripture reading. I mention this because with I read the quote, “An egotist, when he doesn’t understand something in a book, decides it’s a misprint”, I had to [...]

It’s been said, “The best way to bring up children is never to let them down.” As a father, that statement cuts right to my heart. Too many times we mistake the good for the best for our families. What I mean by that is sometime we may think that spending more time away from [...]

It has been said, “There is plenty of heavenly music for those who are tuned in.” As I thought about that statement it reminded me that this should be true for each of us as we approach Sunday worship services. Many times we leave a worship service and have nothing but complaints. Maybe the building [...]
It has been said, “To hear truth and not accept it does not nullify truth.” In the day and age we live in, many people believe that truth is negotiable. The common frame of thought is “what’s true for you is fine and what’s true for me is fine.” However, anyone in their right mind [...]
Someone once wrote, “We feel close to everyone at Christmas – especially on a bus.” This brings back memories when I had to travel home for Christmas from college on a Greyhound bus. It felt as if I was packed in that bus like a sardine. However, one thing I did notice was that nobody [...]
