“But, meanwhile, also prepare a guest room for me, for I trust that through your prayers I shall be granted to you. Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, greets you, as do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, Luke, my fellow laborers. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen” (Philemon 1:22-25).   Checkups One of the reasons my family buys our cars from a particular local dealership is because of their dedicated service department and their determined servant spirit. Periodically, I take my car in for a complete checkup. The service manager makes certain my automobile is […]

Like many of you, I had the blessing of attending a wedding recently. A beautiful bride, handsome groom, magical setting, meaningful ceremony, attended by beloved family and friends. I found myself looking around and pondering the decades of friendships framed with the happiest and saddest of days. As the ceremony closed, we entered a ballroom that was like a fairytale. Tables adorned with centerpieces and a wedding feast prepared for the guest. Life’s second most significant commitment, the covenant of marriage, was celebrated by gathering around a dining table. Life’s most significant and life defining decision was also remembered and […]

“Don’t be afraid,” the prophet answered. “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them” (2 Kings 6:16).   As we prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving this month, I believe I have a word that will be encouraging, empowering and equipping to help us all rise above simply giving thanks and move into living thanks in all circumstances. And that, beloved, includes all those circumstances that are hard, hurtful and even those that argue against all hope, just like the one the prophet Elisha faced.   Surrounded The prophet Elisha was in the city of Dothan; the […]

Dear Friend,  Today our nation will hold one of the most consequential elections in decades. Voters will go to the polls on Tuesday, Nov. 5, to cast their ballots for the next president of the United States, as well as for many crucial congressional, state and local offices. The future of our nation is at stake. America has drifted far from the Biblical values that once stood as our rock-solid foundation. In so many ways, we have turned our back on God, and the results have been devastating. Progressive, liberal thought and activism have so contaminated the mainstream of American […]
