Remembering Tomorrow
Ideas have consequences. It is absolutely true that as a man thinks in his heart, so he is (Prov. 23:7). It is also true, however, that God is true, and every man a liar (Rom. 3:4). That is why the … Continue reading

Seek First
It’s a pretty simple concept that we let slip too easily out of our hands, because it reveals our weaknesses. The concept is this- when the Bible warns us against something, there’s a pretty good chance we’ll be tempted to … Continue reading

Why won’t unbelievers come to church?
Sin. The real question is, our sin or theirs? It has become fashionable, and perhaps always was, for some believers to blame other believers for unbelievers choosing to be unbelievers. When Bill Hybels, building Willow Creek into one of the … Continue reading

We Thirst
Our sins leave scars. First, they not only wound others but hurt us, damage us. Then, by His grace, and by His scars, they are healed. They are forgotten by the One who knows all things, the beginning from the … Continue reading

The Hard Book
There are at least two different kinds of hard sayings in the Bible. On the one hand, there are texts that are just plain terribly hard to understand— texts to which we respond, “What in the world could that mean?” … Continue reading
