Walking in the Will of God - Part Two

God, Thanks for Giving

Since the big Thursday that is Thanksgiving Day is on top of us, I wanted to turn our stomachs from the turkey and our focus from the football and instead fix our minds and hearts on the term Thanksgiving.  In our country Thanksgiving has been observed as a national holiday for close to four centuries. It’s an annual holiday discernible by religious observances and a traditional dinner in which the main menu feature is turkey...

An Attitude for an Audience with GOD

When my wife, Gloria, and I were raising our three boys, we established standards for appropriate behavior in our house.  The boys knew that in order to enjoy the benefits of our home, their words and actions needed to be acceptable in accordance with our criteria.  Gloria and I had the right to establish these standards because it was our home.

The Seduction of the Heart – Part Two

It has been said that everybody has played the fool at sometime in their lives.  The only exception to this rule is the One that rules the universe: Jesus Christ. Other than our Lord, we all have made foolish choices. I submit to you that a fool’s art is a seduced heart. In order to prevent ourselves from becoming fools, we must inoculate our hearts from seduction’s insidious infection.

The Seduction of the Heart

Question: Do you have a personal possession that you purpose to protect at all costs? Whatever is considered our most prized possession pushes us to protect it with unconquerable and robust resolve. I submit to you that too many of us are captured by a culture whose hearts are cemented in mammon. Mammon is a word that our Lord Jesus employed to describe a heart that is held hostage by material things we possess or want.

Supplement or Savior and Lord?

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention more than half of U.S. adults use dietary supplements which consist of multivitamins, minerals and herbs.  As a result, Americans are spending an astronomical amount of money on supplements.  The Vitamins, Minerals, and Supplements (VMS) industry is one of the fastest growing industries in the world.  In 2012, this industry produced about $32 billion in revenue for just nutritional supplements alone.  According to the Nutritional Business Journal, this industry is projected to supplant that total in 2021 and is expected to generate a staggering total of $60 billion in revenue.

Service Shines a Spotlight on Your God

Have you ever taken the time to consider or examine a spotlight? A spotlight is a strong beam of light that illuminates a small or specific area. For example a spotlight will focus on a performer on a stage in order to make him or her the center of attention. This concept can also be applied to a Christian’s life. This week, my objective is to shine a spotlight of focus on our service to God.

Caught in a Cloud of Carnality - Part Two

In today’s technologically-infused society, it is not uncommon for a person to have a laptop or computer that is configured to print to multiple printers. In order to distinguish between multiple printers, the user establishes a default printer which becomes the “go-to” device for that computer. When you consider a Christ-centered mindset or a carnal mindset, which have you established as your spiritual default printer?

Caught in a Cloud of Carnality - Part One

In this passage, the Apostle Paul was writing to the Corinthian believers in order to address behavior that was not Christ-like. The apostle called them out because did not behave like people that were taught by the Holy Spirit. Although they were believers, they acted like unbelievers by quarreling and being jealous, establishing cliques, gossiping , etc. Does that sound like a church near you? The Corinthians were caught in a cloud of carnality!
