I just got finished watching “God is Not Dead 2”. I thought it was a good movie and it even made me tear up a bit. Then I had a thought. Does God really need for us to stand up for Him or speak on His behalf. The answer is no. Why then is it […]

Vengeance
Romans 12:19 New International Version (NIV) 19 Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord. I was watching 48 hours with my wife the other day and saw a case where a woman who had left […]
Are you jealous of others sins
Recently I heard the question are you jealous of others sins? It stopped and made me think. So many people get upset when a person who has lived a life that was supposedly free or without inhibitions and have committed sins through most of their life have now come to Christ and are saved. They […]
Difficult People
I am sure if you ask someone that knows me, they will tel you I am difficult to deal with. To be honest it is true, at times. I have argued with my parents to defend the Republicans and argued with my wives parents to defend the Democrats. Why? Because to be honest there is […]
Acting like children
There are somethings as an adult that we cannot act like children such as taking responsibility for our actions, making a living to support ourselves and our families, paying our bills.

Proverbs 8:13 New International Version (NIV) 13 To fear the Lord is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech. […]
Signs
There is a song called signs that was released in the 70s. This song in my opinion was part of the problem from that generation. I feel like it was making fun of signs. Well signs do have a place in our society. While I agree that some signs are annoying and cover up the […]
Carry your cross
Matthew 16:24-26 New International Version (NIV) 24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. 25 For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it. 26 What good will it be for […]
Lending a helpful hand
Tonight while lifting weights, I noticed a young man who probably is going to end up hurting himself. I thought about helping him to learn, but decided not to. Why? I am not really sure. It could have been fear of rejection or him over reacting and I did not want the hassle or it […]
