Wanna Bet?
How many times have we been told that gambling will solve all of our problems and make our state coffers flush with cash? We’ve heard that gambling is the answer to everything from school funding to medical research. In fact, gambling brings with it a whole new set of problems. Aside from violating the Golden […]
3 Lessons from Fish
Peter, James and John fished for a living. They knew when to fish and where to fish but on this day the fish were not cooperating. When Jesus tells them to let down the nets they reply that they have worked all night and caught nothing. But, at Jesus’ words, they dropped the nets and […]
The Error of Abortion
Texas has become ground zero for the abortion fight. Governor Rick Perry and the legislature there are poised to force abortion doctors to a higher standard of care than any other state. The upshot will likely be the closing of most of the abortion shops still open in in Texas. The Texas debate has reignited […]
Abortion

Legendary Fathers
Great fathers are the stuff of legends. Today, more than ever, great fathers are rare. There are many men who bear the title but fewer and fewer are really worthy of being called a legend. At the same time, it seems that many men want to be good fathers but have never learned how. Perhaps […]
Judging Others
A friend recently posted to Facebook that she was unhappy with some who suggest that gay church leaders are living right. Within about an hour someone rebuked her saying “…you have no right to decide what he does and does not see as ‘living correct’. You are in no place to judge.” As of this writing, […]
Jars of Clay
I enjoyed sitting in the pew last night and listening instead of preaching. We had a fine message from Philip Goad of Heritage Christian University. He spoke from 2 Corinthians 4:7-10 on the topic of “jars of clay.” “But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to […]
