1 Cor 7 Opinions vs Truth What do you trust more; someone’s opinion or the truth? That seems like a rather simple question with a simple answer, but not so fast. In our world, opinions fluctuate and cause problems that seem insolvable. So what does one do? One goes to the scripture and seeks their […]
1 Cor 6 Do you not know? Child rearing is not a once time but it is an over and over recalling past conversations. As a parent we instruct our children with what is right so when they sin, we ask them did you not know what the consequences would be? As a former teacher, […]
Psalm 104 The Lord God Almighty When we believe that God spoke His truth through the Bible, our lives are anchored upon a solid foundation of God’s power, perspective and purpose. Over and over the writers of scripture remind us that God is light and in Him there is no darkness. Darkness is a picture […]
1 Cor 5 Immorality vs Purity In the culture of Corinth it seems that were many who accepted the mores of the unsaved rather than standing apart. It is similar to today. Our TV shows reveal that dark side of sin blatantly and with no holds barred. In fact, we even might see it in […]
Psalm 103 The Character of God The psalmist recounts the attributes of God thus revealing His character lest we become busy and forgetful.

1 Cor 2 What voice are you listening to? Today we are faced with those who would have us join them in believing that boys can be girls and vice versa. They also claim that unborn babies are not really babies. It is really heartbreaking to read and listen to these because they purport to […]
1 Cor 1 “so that” How many times have you been asked why you continue on the road of Christendom? People wonder why I have been and how long I have been a believer in Christ. Paul explains two reasons why: “the testimony about Christ has been confirmed among you—so that you do not lack any spiritual gift.” and secondly “so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.” This is […]
Psalm 102 God is God Day after day we read of those who have passed on into eternity, some to everlasting peace and some to everlasting torment. Some honor God in this lifetime and others deride Him, yet the truth remains about our God: “But You are the same, And Your years will not come […]
Proverbs 21 Solomon points out that there are several classes of people his son will encounter in his life as king. These are the same that we also face. There are the stubborn,the simple, the naive, the wise and the foolish. He sums it up this way, ‘Proud,” “Haughty,” “Scoffer,” are his names, Who acts […]
