The Good News of God
Tonight are the Academy Awards, Hollywood’s annual celebration of itself. I’ve always liked movies so I will probably watch at least some of it. One of the things you sometimes hear at a key point in a movie is. “I’ve got good news and bad news.” This is true not…
Listening to Jesus
Traveling as I did the last two weeks provides the opportunity to observe and listen to other people. On February 2, after attending a three day gathering in Florida with American Baptist pastors, spouses, and denominational leaders, Jill and I settled into our seats on the plane that would bring…
The Life-Changing Power of Jesus
Mark 5:1-20 NASB And they came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gerasenes. 2 And when He had come out of the boat, immediately a man from the tombs with an unclean spirit met Him, 3 and he had his dwelling among the tombs.…

New Day, New You
Happy New Year’s. There’s always something wonderful about the first new day of the year. So many people celebrate New Year’s Eve with parties and by going places like time square…we usually watch the count down on TV if we manage to stay awake. Readers Digest & Better Homes and…
Light in the Darkness
“And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.) 3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. And…
God Is Still Moving
The passage I’m going to read from 2 Samuel 7 is one of the most important in the Old Testament for Christian faith yet it is not familiar to many people. In 2 Samuel 5 David becomes king of all Israel and Judah. He captures the city of Jerusalem from…
