How do we glorify God?
I live right down the street from this amazing used books store that is  a treasure chest of books for any theologian. Upon checking out, the owner also included a freebee titled How Do We Glorify God?, by John D. Hannah. This little book is a part of a Series about the Basics of the Reformed Faith. With...
The Shack - A Healthy Read?
“The Shack” by William P. Young is a popular book - a top seller on Amazon.com and unfortunately a book that many young evangelicals are racing to often with support within the Evangelical church.  We seem to see a lack of Biblical discernment within the church - often from leadership. ...
Judge Not…
People who don’t want scrutiny, people who don’t want to be held accountable for what they teach or what they believe, people who don’t want to be told they’re wrong, they always throw that verse “Judge not lest you be judged!”  - John MacArthur
What Is Our Focus?
Christian magazines, TV shows and church services often put the spotlight on famous athletes, beauty queens, businessmen and politicians who “make it in the world and have Jesus too!” . . . The typical media testimony goes something like this: “I was sick and broke, a total failure. Then I met...
Cyclone Nargis
The devastation in Burma is beyond imagination.  I urge everyone to help in any way they can. Gospel for Asia, a well respected evangelistic organization is taking any donation amount to not only get the food, water and shelter to the thousands of people in Burma but they are also taking with them the...

Thou hast produced and sustained me, supported and indulged me, saved and kept me; Thou art in every situation able to meet my needs and miseries. My I live by Thee, live for...
What Has Happened to the American Church?
The more I watch American churches the more I am convinced that we are losing the essential focus - the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I believe this is a two-fold problem and one that is creating false converts who are saturating American churches. We should be concerned about this and our passion as Christians...
By Grace… through faith… not of ourselves!
8 For (U)by grace you have been saved (V)through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is (W)the gift of God; 9(X)not as a result of works, so that (Y)no one may boast. 10 For we are His workmanship, (Z)created in (AA)Christ Jesus for (AB)good works, which God(AC)prepared beforehand so that...
Don’t Waste Your Pulpit
There is so much truth to what Piper is commending here.  While many behind the pulpit have taken the secular approach and waste their pulpit the call is to return to God’s Word! “I think the reason why pastors don’t do that is because they themselves do not live off the Bible everyday.”...
Jesus Didn’t Die for Frogs
I am currently reading in about four different books - three of them various aspects of the Gospel and biblical study and one on bananas (don’t ask) - so the input is varied at the moment, but it is amazing how the Holy Spirit continues to bring back to me the same point from various places, impressing...
