Disciple making movement

I just finished reading From Megachurch to Multiplication by Chris Galanos last week. It’s quite an eye-opener. I hope that you can pick up a copy. Some of the things that the author talks about in this book run counter to what the American church does and it explains why the American church is failing.Continue reading “Disciple making movement”

Family

The first century Church had a special relationship. Because they had that closeness they were able to accomplish miracles. 32All the believers were united in heart and mind. And they felt that what they owned was not their own, so they shared everything they had. 33The apostles testified powerfully to the resurrection of the LordContinue reading “Family”

What’s with Islam?

I lived in the Middle East for two years, studied Arabic and even read parts of the Quran. With just my curious casual reading of of the Quran I discovered that I knew the content better than the Muslims whom I spent time with there. For example, they knew generally well known facts about IslamContinue reading “What’s with Islam?”

Sounds like today

But understand this: In the last days terrible times will come. For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, without love of good, traitorous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form ofContinue reading “Sounds like today”

Hearing from God

Back in the Old Testament days, God’s people heard from him through Moses. Moses heard the voice of God through various ways; we all know about the burning bush. When they left Mount Sinai he heard it a different way. When Moses entered the Tent of Meeting to speak with the LORD, he heard theContinue reading “Hearing from God”

Ending a Child

Many have said that the Bible doesn’t mention the word abortion, but we can infer that it is wrong. I disagree. I want to address this not from a Biblical stance first. Let’s not use the Bible and examine the primary source evidence. The clip below is from the Planned Parenthood website. You can goContinue reading “Ending a Child”

Where is ET?

So where is ET? Is he going to phone home? Does he even exist? Physicist Enrico Fermi explains it with the Rare Earth Theory. If there is a planet that could support intelligent beings, it would have to be in the habitable zone from its sun. If it’s too close they (all the ETs) wouldContinue reading “Where is ET?”

Happy 73rd birthday Israel

A miracle of God that shows He is coming soon. “I will bring them out from the nations and gather them from the countries, and I will bring them into their own land. I will pasture them on the mountains of Israel, in the ravines and in all the settlements in the land.” (Ezekiel 34:13)Continue reading “Happy 73rd birthday Israel”

Trinity – We are left with Holy Spirit power

This word – trinity – it is the foundation for Christianity. The word isn’t found in the Bible, but the Bible clearly mentions this doctrine. There is only one God, but he demonstrates Himself to the world as three persons because we don’t have infinite minds. If He were to give us a real demonstrationContinue reading “Trinity – We are left with Holy Spirit power”

Revival Begins in the Mirror

One person can change the world around him! Look in even American newspapers and you will find reports from the Welsh revival. Student Evan Roberts started the 1904-1905 Welsh Revival in his first year of college and it caused such a stir that bars and gambling houses had to close. Prostitution ceased. Even the courtsContinue reading “Revival Begins in the Mirror”
