NASCAR Theology
“For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.” ~ (Romans 12:4-5) I recently listened to a series of NASCAR interviews following a tightly contested race. They sounded like typical NASCAR…
A Necessary Random Thought
“In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity, sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.” ~ Titus 2:7-8 One of the craziest things about growing up is becoming the…
Living and Being Alive
Being alive is a fleeting venture. I never quite understood the term “alive” anyway. “A” means “not” as in “a”mmoral. Saying this, “live” indicates something with life. Therefore, the term really means “no life.” My etymology may be misguided. Truthfully I know it is following a brief study of the word. But my point is…
Be Guilty. Be Free.
Everyone in here is innocent, you know that? ~ Red [Shawshank Redemption] Prison. The very thought terrifies the population. In our minds, we think in varying ways, “Be good! Or you locked up!” It is a primitive thought, but extremely necessary for the seems of civilization to remain stitched. Saying this, there is a particular…
To Live
“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all” ~ Oscar Wilde When I was a younger Christian, I remember that many of my Bible studies were guided by the many questions that I had. A question would develop in my mind and then I would quickly refer to…
Cold Coffee
Recently, I was sitting in a cafe reading a nice book and drinking some coffee. This is one of my favorite things to do and it is often in these moments that my mind wanders. As I sat there, I I drank most of my coffee but then got carried away in the contents of…
Prayer for Boldness
This is a prayer of boldness for my congregation. Much of this prayer derives from Philippians 1:12-24. Now We Pray *** Father, I know the world in which we currently live, is not our home. But, this I know. That You work all things to the good of those who love You and are called…
Lay It All Down
“He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. But godliness with contentment is great gain.” ~ 1 Timothy 6:4-6 When you read…
Prayer for my Congregation
Dear Holy Father I come before you in prayer. I pray for The Church on this day.  I thank You upon every remembrance of them, always in every prayer of mine, let me make this request with joy. That we all fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now [Ref Philippians 1:3-5].  I…
The Ultimate Question
In 1978, a radio comedy was broadcasted from BBC which soon took the world by storm. It was a comedy which subtly took jabs at the intelligence of humanity and showed the frivolous routines we invest so heavily into. This work, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, is about a human who just before the…
