Are you ready to go to jail.
Today’s reading is from Acts 4:1-4. In it Peter and John are arrested because they are talking about Jesus to the people around them. They are so moved by Jesus and who He is and what He has done for them that they can not be quiet about it. And so the religious leaders haveContinue reading “Are you ready to go to jail.”
Mr. Fix It…
Do you know someone who can fix anything? If it breaks you call them and they come and fix it. Like an uncle who would fix everything from plumbing to bats/gloves to bikes and garbage disposals… A friend told me a story about a man who was the fix it person. The family would putContinue reading “Mr. Fix It…”
Praise the Lord!
We all have reasons to not praise the Lord. We do not have to think to hard or to long to come up with reasons to just get mad and angry at everything.

It was an interesting book on why we read the Bible and how many of us use the Bible for abuse rather than to build each other up. By abuse we use the Bible to support those things we already believe.Continue reading “Why do we read the Bible?”

In what do you trust? Do you trust in wealth? Do you trust in the amount of money you make and how much you have saved for the future? Is this security? When the dollar keeps falling and banks can close or be robbed? Do you trust in the security of your job? Is thereContinue reading “Trust in the Lord”
The Lions Den
Daniel 6 tells us about Daniel’s trip into the lions den. Daniel was not liked by those who wanted his place. People around him were envious of him and his position with the king, so they moved in to get rid of him. They were caught up in the things of the world. They wantedContinue reading “The Lions Den”
Love or hate…
So what does it mean to love another believer? How do we love someone we do not agree with? You see not all believers agree. And this is really nothing new, we see disagreements in Acts. The early church has issues with each other and who could be a christian, and wether you needed toContinue reading “Love or hate…”
