Early voting has ended in the midterm elections and Election Day is Tuesday. Many in America see it as a turning point, there is much at stake. Locally, we have a big fight brewing. Ted Cruz is defending his senate seat from challenger Beto O'Rourke. You might have heard of him.
I already decided almost a year ago that I would not again give my vote to Cruz (I wrote about that here), but right up until the day before early vo...

Sometimes our fears hold us back from experiencing God’s blessings. Sometimes we need to be brave enough to step out of our comfort zones. ~ By Faith, Nancy Gavilanes, pg. 93Before ascending to Heaven, Jesus told his disciples, “and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth. “ (Acts 1:8) From the beginning, personal testimony ha...

The 23rd Psalm is familiar to many. It is a reminder of God’s faithfulness and evokes beautiful mental imagery. We can imagine beautiful hillsides, lush pastures, and the peaceful streams. Even in our Biblically illiterate culture, if people know any passage of Scripture, it is likely to be this one.
It is encouragement in times of trouble, but more than that, it is a declaration of victory.
We have been studying Psalms 23 fo...

Many people want to find God. There are many books on the subject which promise to put you on the path to find Him. Most of religions of the world make the claim to make you one of His own.1 However, there are some people who want to find God without religion.
They might say (and many do), “I’m spiritual, not religious.” They might not want to follow anyone’s guidance or rules. Or, as happens frequently, they have ...

My daughter started an Instagram account for our dog recently, @fernandothepup. I thought it was a sweet idea, a way to give her sister who just went to college her Fernando fix.
I didn’t realize that dog accounts are actually a big thing on Instagram. Did you know this? She’s had a brand contact her already.
This is a dog God did actually send us because I definitely did not seek him out.

It is written, "The Lord loves a cheerful giver." (2 Cor 9:6-7) It's one of those things even those who are a stranger to Scripture are familiar. It resonates with us because no one wants a “gift” that is grudgingly given.
When the first Tabernacle for the Lord was built in the wilderness, the Israelites were instructed to bring as they felt led. (Exodus 35:4-6, 21, Exodus 36:2-5) Again, when the Davidic Temple was built, the gift...

All of us know someone who is not a believer in Christ. Many of us likely know someone who is not only an unbeliever, but one who is aggressive in their unbelief. If the subject of religion or faith comes up, they bring up an area in which they think Christians or Christianity itself reflects poorly and hammer relentlessly against your faith. At times, religion doesn’t even have to come up at all, knowing you are a Christian, t...

Barbara Bush, the wife of our 41st president went home on April 17th and her funeral was held at St. Martin’s Episcopal Church in Houston on April 21st.[1] First families from the Clintons on attended to show their respect and demonstrate that a person is not defined solely by their political affiliation.

The Trinity is one of the biggest issues encountered when discussing the Christian faith with those who believe in God, but not quite the God of Christianity. Mormons, Muslims and Jews all believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; however, they believe in a strictly monotheistic God, one being and one person (’yachid’ in Hebrew meaning a solitary numeric one), while Christians are monotheists who believe in God who is three ...

So what is the origin of Easter? The answer is extremely obvious, yet skeptics and even some Christians seem to think it is a perversion of the Apostolic faith.
This is far, far from the truth. Apart from the move of the Sabbath observance, one of worship, communion, and reflection, from the seventh day of the week to the first because it was considered "the Lord's Day," (( Acts 20:7 (Likely written by 64-65 AD giving an account...

It's amazing the things you miss when you take a break from online media. I checked my Facebook feed today after a short break and found a slew of unbelieving friends slamming evangelical Christians. Some of the claims they were making made absolutely no sense and the posts they were sharing made assertions that were just not true at all.
But reading a little farther apart from all of the bogus information, the kernel of the is...

At the beginning of each New Year, most of us start with new resolution and good intentions. It is a time for fresh starts and new beginnings. We resolve to read more, to eat right, and to follow through on that exercise program.

When reading the Bible people often ask “What does that mean?” Some things are very clear, such as God’s plan of salvation. Some points of connection in God’s overarching theme throughout the Bible are clear such as God’s command to put the blood of a slain lamb on the entrance to the home, saving the Israelites from death in the tenth plague of Egypt was a foreshadowing and a physical confession in the salvation of God . . .Yeshua...

Would God be happy with your house? Psalm 101 tells us what God expects from us, how he wants us to live, and what the lifestyle of people who are called by his name is supposed to look like.

“It’s not all about you.” We say that to people sometimes. We may be in the middle of a conversation about something and they make it all about them, completely missing the point. Because their focus is directed inward, towards themselves rather than outward to others, they miss the point and don’t understand what is being said.
We had a talk in Sunday School about a person with that failing. No, it wasn’t on Moses’ pharaoh, Danie...

I don't watch the Duggars and don't have an opinion on them other than holding the opinion that you shouldn't be taking about "God's Will" in relation to family size unless you are actually raising a baby the way we were naturally designed to do, which is extended and on demand nursing and weaning between ages 2 to 3 rather than at 6 months.

Atheists and cessationists are those who hold two very different belief systems. One says that there is no God, the other believes in God and Christ as Lord, so what could they have in common?
Definitions
First, let’s define our terms: Atheist: An atheist is one that believes that there is no God. Buddhism is one of the few religions that believes that there is no God. It is atheistic. Theist: A theist believes that th...Mark as Played

We know of the Bible as the story of God's plan of salvation for mankind. From the first page to the last, we see that he had the end in mind from the very beginning. However, most of the time we see just two parties to the story: the Triune God and mankind, those inhabitants of the third heaven and the first.
However, there is another group that plays the role, the divine council. Part of the group referenced in Ephesians 6:12 wh...

There is an interesting passage in the book of 1 Kings about the voice of God, a man of God and a prophet. It was the in time of the divided kingdom, Jeroboam was the first king of the northern nation of Israel after the people had revolted against Solomon’s successor, Rehoboam (over taxes . . . Go figure.) (1 Kings 12:6-17)
The figure of Jeroboam is a conflicted one. He was told by the prophet Ahijah of the coming divi...
