Have you been coming to our Youth and Family Singings? Once a month, we try to bring our older and younger members together to learn songs to add to our Sunday worship. It is a wonderful time of fellowship as we practice together, growing closer to each other in order to enrich our worship. I am especially eager to add one particular…

This situation was dire in the northern kingdom of Israel. Following Solomon’s death, they had chosen to not follow the lineage of David for their kings. They determined they would no longer keep the feast days in Jerusalem but created their own feast days like those Moses had given. Students of history know the rest of the story. Over the next 200+…

The Scripture itself overflows with affirmations that every part of it is from God.  Over 400 times, one reads (in the KJV), “Thus saith the Lord” (with over 300 of those in the books of Isaiah, Jeremiah and Ezekiel).   When Paul says that “all Scripture” is God-breathed (2 Tim. 3:16), he had earlier used that word “Scripture” to refer to part of…

There is a lot of talk about “the Manosphere” on the internet. These are podcasts, YouTube channels, and other social media outlets where certain personalities give young men life advice.

We were excited to catch up, to laugh, and to play with our aunts, uncles, and especially our cousins. Though we hadn’t seen each other in years, the love that we shared always…

Many people have asked over the years, “So you believe sola scriptura?”  I remember the first time someone ever asked me something like that—I had no idea what they were talking about.  I had never heard of “sola scriptura.”  I’ve been in some Bible studies where a person will say, “Of course you would say that!  You’re sola scriptura!”  At first, it…

Recently I received a message that so vividly illustrates an attribute that each of us should have. It gives details of events that happened at least sixty-five years ago. I have no remembrance of any specific interaction I had with the person who wrote it, but it has had such a positive, uplifting impact on my life since I opened Facebook and…
