If there was a biography about you, what would the title be? I didn’t deserve God at all. How I managed to escape the life I chose is incredibly miraculous. I tried to do life on my own for scores and I just kept getting worse. But God intervened when I humbled myself and criedContinue reading “Undeserving of grace”

I’d change this law
If you had the power to change one law, what would it be and why? The law of sin and death is harsh. We are born into sin because of one man so we die. Thanks a lot Adam. However God in his mercy, sent Jesus so that through one man all may live eternallyContinue reading “I’d change this law”
Growth
Are there any activities or hobbies you’ve outgrown or lost interest in over time? Things change when you walk with the Lord. Old things pass away and you become new.

The difference between Christian and Jesus follower
Christianity is religion about Jesus. It uses the Bible and it’s centered around Jesus. Jesus followers use the Bible and they talk about Jesus. So what’s the difference between the two?

The throne
What are your biggest challenges? Either Jesus is king in the throne of my life, or I am. That’s the huge struggle many Christians toss in the towel and just let self sit on the throne. My resolution is not to do that. The old man makes bad decisions. The old man isn’t loving orContinue reading “The throne”
Life
What makes you feel nostalgic? Life happens. Much of it is wonderful and good, but parts are bad. This “new normal” makes me want to go back to former days. Remember, when hugs were normal? Going to the market makes me wish for former days. 50 years ago when I went to the market withContinue reading “Life”
