If your theology creates conflicts and disharmony with scripture, then it is your theology that is wrong, not the record of GOD. If men would take that fact to heart, humble themselves, and admit they sometimes don’t understand, it would go a long way to stopping much of the erroneous doctrine I hear often spoken...

People, especially men, feel that they must always have an answer, and if they can’t figure it out, they’ll often make up an answer or say no one really knows. There would be far less false teachings in the world if people would just admit they do not know. Instead, they speak from presumption and... Continue Reading →
I was reading "The Allure of Hope" by Jan Meyers and she spoke about the things the Lord feeds us to strengthen and inspire us. Actually, Jan wasn’t writing to me because she addressed the book to women, but I relish divine revelations into the beautiful mystique of woman. Jan wrote of things people don’t...

I think the popular religious interpretation of "sorrow" as described in Genesis 3:16 is off the mark. People speak of the sorrow that Eve was cursed with as physical pain, but this sorrow speaks to emotional grief and strain which is painful to the heart and soul. The same word is used in reference to... Continue Reading →
Hope is defined as desire accompanied by expectation of or belief in fulfillment (Merriam-Webster).

It is important for parents to remember that they had life and purpose before they were used of YAHWEH to bring life to their children. The parent’s own life and not their children’s lives should remain their center focus. This statement is counterculture and that is why it probably feels wrong right now but let... Continue Reading →
It is only when YAHWEH draws a person to Himself that they are ready to hear Him. Many people trying to serve Christ attempt to lure people to Him by softening His requirements. A person must be ready to turn from their own self-reliance before they can turn to the Savior. They may be convinced... Continue Reading →
A foundational scripture for to hold close to the heart is Matthew 5:8, “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” A pure heart is simply a heart that values GOD above all else. When you understand the fear of the Lord, you realize that a pure heart is not only obtainable, but it is the outcome... Continue Reading →
What is the age at which children outgrow compassion and empathy? I find many people have soft hearts for children in dire circumstances as they are seen as not responsible for the conditions surrounding their lives. However, adults are often not the beneficiaries of such grace flowing soft hearts. They are met with assumptions of... Continue Reading →
I had a conversation with a friend the other day that was hoping to revitalize a community through revitalizing an old church positioned in the middle of it. He expressed some disappointment as he discovered the church leadership wasn’t willing to make some needed changes due to doctrinal beliefs. It seems the pulpit of the... Continue Reading →
