How Fast is Too Fast?

--> Absolutely insane.  Last week a gentleman I know took me for a drive in his Ferrari, and it was absolutely insane.  I have never been in a car that would go from zero to crazy so quick.  I wasn’t sure if I was thrilled or terrified.  
Officially the car will go from zero to…

Joshua 3:16

Joshua 3:16 He was the first of the twelve. Slowly he walked along; his pace governed by the other eleven. The load on his shoulder was a burden but wasn’t nearly as heavy as his thoughts. His feet moved as if they were on auto pilot and his eyes remained fixed on the river in…

Labels

--> I was reading an article on Cross Cultural Church Planting awhile back and came across a statement that read, “America has the second largest African American population next to Nigeria.” Now my first question was; how many African Americans do they have in Nigeria? It’s interesting how our language changes and we accept statements…

3:16 Acts

Acts 3:16 It was a day, just a day like any other day.   His brothers had gotten him out of bed and gotten him dressed.  And on their way to work they carried him to his usual spot at the temple gate.  It was just a day, the sky wasn't any bluer, the birds didn't…

We are Winning!

Well, another survey is out, showing that Christianity is losing ground and that church attendance is down.  But, depending on your perspective, we aren’t losing, we’re winning.  When you stop and think about it, every person who isn’t a Christian hasn’t been lost from Christianity, they just haven’t been won to Christianity yet.  The starting place…

Not if You Die. . .

3:16- John

We’ve all seen them, at sporting events and concerts.  The obligatory John 3:16 signs.  In case you are wondering that all started in 1980.  A guy by the name of Rollen Stewart had been making a name for himself by appearing at major sporting events wearing a rainbow coloured wig and dancing wildly for the…

Christian Assist

--> Last month I drove to New Brunswick twice for funerals that affected our Atlantic District Ministerial family.  And on one of those trips my rental had “Driver Assist” as an option.  That was kind of cool.  It’s not quite a self-driving car, but it was close.With the Lane Departure Warning system in place, if…

Understanding Peace

Do you remember praying as a child?  Do you remember the words that you prayed?  Let’s try it together:  “Now I lay me down to sleep I pray the Lord my soul to keep, if I should die before I wake I pray the Lord my soul to take.”  But what if when you laid…
