Ephesian 5:15 & 16 “Pay careful attention, then, to how you walk – not as unwise people but as wise – making the most of the time, because the days are evil.” (HCSB) That reference to making the most is literally “buying back the time” but I like the translation of “redeeming the time.” Sadly,…

Difficult Teaching from Luke 14:26
If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple.
Christian Nationalism: Next Talking Point for BigEva
What is Christian Nationalism? Good question. One that needs answering as it looks to become the next talking point to used to try to shut down people who want to speak honestly about God, His Word, and His Church. Like Critical Race Theory (CRT), the term has been around for a while. This person, who…
Naked Bible Podcast
If you haven’t heard of Dr. Michael Heiser, or his Naked Bible Podcast, then I’d urge you to correct that. đ Dr. Heiser is an expert in ancient languages. I’ve always heard that we need to read the Bible in context, he points out that we need to read it out in proper context which…
On that day…
Last updated on November 18th, 2020 at 11:01 am I’ve been a little hesitant to post this as I take scripture seriously and approach it with respect. However, this just came out of my mouth the other day while having a conversation, and it keeps coming back to me. I personally make a point of…
The Sin of Achan
I’ve been reading through the book of Joshua recently. Normally when I read Old Testament events regarding Israel, I don’t necessarily feel like they have a direct application today. Am I wrong? Maybe. I do think they are insightful into God’s character and valuable to understanding our faith. Chapter 7 of Joshua hit me differently.…
At a Loss
I’m at a complete and total loss. The more I go to look into the nasty, devilish teachings of Critical Race Theory (CRT), the more I find it has infiltrated into an institution I’ve long affiliated myself with. The Provost and Sr. VP of Southern Seminary, an institution of the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), claims…
and We Wonder Why We Lose Them
I have 2 teens. I was telling them about this https://bereanresearch.org/lifeways-blasphemous-new-gen-z-bible-devo/ After I said the phrase Gen Z Bible Devo, they looked puzzled and asked what is devo? I told them it is short for devotional. Then I read this line: Since Day Uno there was Cap G. Big J was chillin with Cap G. And…
Where is Our Delight?
Man, this is so true. For my believing family, who hasn’t experienced ups and downs in closeness to the LORD and who hasn’t experienced the unmatched joy of life when every aspect of your life is dedicated to his service. Psalms 37:4 Delight yourself in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of…
Hate Wearing a Mask? Me Too. But…
2020 has certainly turned out to be a bizarre year. Pandemic. Cities moving to eliminate law enforcement. Statutes. Mandatory mask orders. Division. I find some of these things bothersome. What I’ve noticed that bothers me more than most anything else is a distinct lack of Christlikeness among some professed Christians. I’ve noticed this among friends,…
