What Do Pink Elephants Look Like?
How can we deal with the topics of division that surround us in our country and in our community? We all have dealt with times of disagreement, tiredness, aggravation, and simply being “worn” of how we view our treatment from others or from a situation. We may not want to talk or find it difficult …
5280 Feet
“We’re afraid if we give an inch, someone is going to take a mile. Jesus said if they ask for a mile, give them two.” ~Wes McAdams As a student, I relied heavily on charts & tables for measurements and conversions. As time has moved on, one that has always stuck with me is, “How …
What’s Your Message!?
As you know, I love ink pens. While I have my regular set of “go-to’s” of pens I use on a daily basis, I’m always on the “look out” for another pen to add to my repertoire. A commercial caught my eye this weekend that was advertising custom-made pens where a group or organization can …
Preparation (Getting To Know Jesus)
A few months ago, I began working with a cousin of mine in the area of genealogy. I have always enjoyed studying history, but I have never spent a lot of time documenting my family’s history. My cousin’s grandfather was a brother to my grandfather. As we began our journey last spring, we have worked …
Comfort
While we anticipate the rise of the sun each day so we can begin our list of chores, assignments, and complete our plans, we also deal with challenges. On some level, we all battle frustration, “aloneness,” hurt, and problems. Many times, we may feel it is “us” versus the “world” with no support from anyone. …
Condescend To Men Of Low Estate
In his book entitled, Balance: A Tried and Tested Formula for Church Growth, Ira North, in chapter seven, points us to the importance of helping the poor, the downtrodden, and the “lowly.” Brother North quotes Romans 12:16 (KJV) which says Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things but condescend to …
244, and Counting!
I love The United States Of America! We celebrated our country’s 244th birthday this past weekend. I am so thankful for all the freedoms we enjoy as citizens of this nation. We continue to enjoy these freedoms due to our wonderful armed services made up of dedicated men and women. I have always been a …
The Work Continues
We are excited and thankful for the opportunity to assemble on Sunday mornings for worship (8:30 AM & 10:30 AM-refer to your group schedule for your time slot). This opportunity provides much hope and optimism as we seek to take steps to return to our “normal” weekly assemblies in the future. Let us remember additional …
How Can We Be United?
Philippians 2:1-4 says, “Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy, fulfill my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in …
Tests First, Lessons Later
We often get the tests first and the lessons come later. We learn the most about ourselves when challenging times show up. While we do not find comfort in being challenged, we can often discover growth! Since Friday, March 13th, all of us have been “shuttered” due to COVID-19. We all have heard more and …
