As we go through our Christian lives we expect a certain degree of failure. One of the first and most fundamental things we come to understand when we become Christians is that we are flawed, imperfect, sinful creatures. We lose our tempers, we have impure thoughts, we say things that aren't true. Despite our best … Continue reading My Pathetic, Sinful, Godly Desires

Gideon – Part 1: God’s Man In Hiding (A Bible Study in Judges 6:1-23)
If you told me a year ago that Donald Trump was going to be the next President of the United States of America, I wouldn’t, have believed you. I know this because many people did, in fact, tell me that and, no, I didn’t believe them (I honestly still can’t believe it). Although I easily … Continue reading Gideon – Part 1: God’s Man In Hiding (A Bible Study in Judges 6:1-23)
“The Flood is Coming” (A Bible Study on Matthew 24:36-44)
There are always headlines that catch your eye if you're a Christian. We're immediately drawn to topics about abortion, the persecuted church, evangelism; and now, even gay marriage and transgenderism. And while these are all important issues that we're faced with in this country, and even globally; there's one thing that they always have in … Continue reading “The Flood is Coming” (A Bible Study on Matthew 24:36-44)

Four Lepers and a Funeral (A Bible Study of 2 Kings 7:1-20 NKJV)
The book of 2 Kings is, just as 1 Kings is, the chronicling of the Jewish kings after the death of King Solomon. The nation was split into two kingdoms, the southern kingdom being that of Judah and the northern kingdom of Israel. After about 80 years, or so, the northern kingdom of Israel, and … Continue reading Four Lepers and a Funeral (A Bible Study of 2 Kings 7:1-20 NKJV)
Those Who Forget History… (A Bible Study of Jude 1:1-13) – Part 1
My worst subject in school was always history. After all the years that I spent half asleep in my history classes, I can only tell you three things about history. George Washington had wooden teeth. Lincoln freed the slaves. And we landed on the moon. And I'm totally guessing that it happened in that order. … Continue reading Those Who Forget History… (A Bible Study of Jude 1:1-13) – Part 1
What Has My Blamelessness Done For Me Lately: A Bible Study on Job 35:1-8
The first thing that typically comes to one’s mind when they hear the name 'Job', is Job himself. Others might say the word 'Suffering', which is also fitting since the name 'Job' literally means “One who is persecuted”. We tend to think of 'the man' who lost everything he had and persevered to the end … Continue reading What Has My Blamelessness Done For Me Lately: A Bible Study on Job 35:1-8
The Goldilocks Obituary
A big part of growing up is learning. Some lessons you learn by hearing, some you learn by seeing, some you learn by doing. And other lessons are learned by reading some whacked out stories about wolves and pigs and little girls with baskets. That's right, I'm talking about children's stories. Stories about animals doing … Continue reading The Goldilocks Obituary

Oh, the Things I’ll Do: A Bible Study of Philippians 4:10-13
If the modern prosperity gospel has a “life verse”, it's Philippians 4:13. Taken on its own, it is a very powerful verse. It might give you the power to lift a car over your head, or survive a jump off a very tall building. Prosperity preachers won't need but the faintest excuse for invoking it, … Continue reading Oh, the Things I’ll Do: A Bible Study of Philippians 4:10-13
