Carla MacLachlan, author of Parenting Moment by Moment recently posted the following question on facebook: True or False: If you are following Jesus and your child is watching you all day then he is learning what it looks like to follow Jesus? [Read more…]
My wife and I recently were traveling East on Highway 54 (in Missouri) and it rained and sleeted on us for nearly two hours. We were about 20 miles from Jefferson City when I hit black ice on a bridge on a corner and lost control of my Honda Pilot. We started sliding toward the bridge but thankfully we were near the end of it and we missed it. We then hit the ditch at probably 65 MPH and we were sliding sideways, then we spun on around and were heading backwards up an embankment. [Read more…]
My wife and I were mall walking the other day and I saw a shirt on display that said, “What’s better than great?” How would you answer that question? Do you know what’s better than great?
My wife and I saw a bumper sticker on a vehicle the other day, “God loves you whether you like it or not.” We both read it and chuckled, but then it struck both of us how profound this simple statement really is. God really does love each and every one of us, whether we acknowledge or reciprocate that love.
Some friends and I were talking about a Christian book the other day, Parenting Moment by Moment. We were denied permission to sell the book at a large mall because it might be considered controversial or offensive. I was asking people if Christianity was offensive to them. One guy said well if it is an extremist book, then it may be offensive. [Read more…]
Here is a basic question for any atheists out there: Can life come from non-life? I ask this question because I believe the Bible is the inerrant Word of God. I believe the Bible is completely true. II Timothy 3:16a says, “All scripture is given by inspiration of God.” [Read more…]
I was talking to an atheist the other day, whom I’ve had many conversations with in the past. He said he didn’t believe in God (he’s said this many times in the past). But this time he stated again that he didn’t believe in God; but if he’s wrong, that God would consider him a good person. This atheist is very close to me, someone that I love. I genuinely believe that he thinks that he is a good person. [Read more…]
Ray Comfort with Way of the Master says that God is not subject to time; God made time for man (paraphrased). I’ve been thinking about this and a couple of Bible verses come to mind. [Read more…]
I had the opportunity to witness at Super Bowl 45 this year as part of the Super Bowl Outreach. I went to Dallas with seven other people who are with Born of Him Ministries. We had a great time of fellowship, evangelism training and then actual evangelism. I made a lot of new friends, including two open-air preachers from Ohio, who were part of our group for the weekend. We witnessed at the NFL Experience at the Convention Center and it was great. People were receptive and we had a really good time handing out tracts and open-air preaching.
Do you know any famous people? Have you ever met someone famous? A movie star, rock star or professional athlete? I met Amira at Super Bowl 45. She is a pop/hip hop artist. I was there with over 100 over evangelist from around the country. We were participating in the Super Bowl Outreach. We did some open-air preaching and later I was handing out tracts next to three people who were handing out material about a singer.
Every now and then someone would come running over and have their picture taken with the girl that was helping hand out advertisements for the singer. It finally dawned on me that she was the girl in ad! She was promoting her song on itunes Girls Just Wanna Have Fun. So I had my picture taken with her. She’s holding my gospel tract and I’m holding her advertisement for her new single.
