Finally, some hope – although look how it comes. Through another marriage to a prostitute and an exile – to cure all the things they have been doing wrong. So, yes – hope. But are they willing to pay the price of “admission” – pun entirely intended. They have to “admit” what they had become in order to be “admitted” back to a relationship with God.

Islamic Terrorists care so much about what they believe that they are willing to die for it. If you’re a Christian – do you care enough about what you believe that you are willing to share it with friends, loved ones, strangers?

“”It’s a test, David. Don’t you see? I bet those demons told God that you would run with your tail tucked between your legs at the first sign of difficulty.” She shoved her finger downward. “But God said, ‘No! Not David Chance!’” Yes – the image at the left is kind of cute. And

“We continue to hear from many people on the debate over <fill in your favorite conflict> that our current <fill in your church “rules”> contains language which is contradictory, unnecessarily hurtful, and inadequate for the variety of local, regional and global contexts,” the proposal said. “We will name such a Commission to include persons from every region of

Strong and mature Christians do not simply pop out of the oven overnight. The fruit of the Spirit takes time to grow in a person.
I read this and immediately thought about pop tarts. Unlike the picture on the left, there was practically nothing inside. Very little filling compared to the dough. Not unlike a new Christian.

Someone who doesn’t allow the Holy Spirit to fill them and guide their lives.
… a former pastor … criticizing Starbucks for removing “Christmas from their cups because they hate Jesus.” Are you serious??? Exactly what do some people think Christmas is about? So here’s what this is about. Look at the cups in the image above. These are this year’s “Christmas season” cups at Starbucks. Now they are
No snowflakes = hating Jesus? More
The Right to die. A euphemism. At best – a claimed right to commit suicide. At worst – legalized murder. And where does this “right” come from? Let’s look deeper into this issue. As one who has tried to commit suicide – and obviously failed – it’s something I’ve examined before. As one with
Do we really have a “Right To Die”? More
