Last Sunday, during our adult Sunday School class, Brad was teaching on Jonah and asked us what our “GO TO” Psalm was – you know, the Psalm that you read, claim, or think about when things aren’t going well. You see, when he was in the big fish, Jonah went to the Psalms as he [...]

This post is sorely overdue… I posted about the book over 3.5 months ago, said that I would post about the DVD – even received a review copy from David Cook Publishers – and have yet to do it! So, here goes… Overall, the Forgotten God DVD Study Resource is a great and one that [...]

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” -Jeremiah 29:11 We are … perplexed, but not in despair; … So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. [...]

Some “nuggets” from my daily Bible study times this week: “Who needs a doctor: healthy or sick? I’m inviting outsiders, not insiders—an invitation to a changed life, changed inside & out.” -Jesus (-us?) [May 16] “When Jesus finished saying all this in the hearing of the people,…” Luke 7:1 | Jesus wasn’t covert. May we [...]
