Happy Christians versus Angry Christians
As a kid growing up in church, all I could remember was the hypocrisy of the adults I came in contact with. From the ‘God’s gonna get you for being a sinner attitude’ to blatant favoritism and legalism, I came to a point where I wanted nothing to do with church, it’s people or God. In my immature mind it was a package deal, they were all the same thing.
A Question of Ownership
The single most freeing thing I’ve done since becoming a Christ follower was to give ownership of the ministry and business to the Lord. NO, it did not happen over night, it was a process. Plus, doing so did not relieve me of my responsibilities for being a good steward or working hard with the gifts He has given me. But, it did remove the one thing the Lord tells us not to do, worry.

Check Your Armor
I believe our company is at a very critical point. As we grow and prosper, there is an inherent tendency to loose focus on how we got where we are and who brought us here. I have written before about one of my biggest fears…the fear of thinking I can do this on my own and forgetting to give glory to the Lord.
Starting Over
Last night we took the opportunity to attend a friends church here at home. Sometime during the day my wife suggested we attend the Wednesday evening service. At first I was not very keen on the idea because of the amount of work we have on our plate and the short time we have between events. That being said, I sensed the leading of the Holy Spirit through her suggestion, so agreed we should go…I’m glad we did.
Are You a Romans 8:14 Christian?
Several years ago, a pastor friend was asked by a church member why the member was no longer hearing from the Lord. The pastor looked at him and said this, “It’s been my experience that when the Lord stops speaking to you, you need to go back to the last place you said no to Him and say yes.”
Preparation in Arabia
After we retired from military service, the Lord had us sell or give away everything we owned with the exception of a few odds and ends. Not only did He separate us from our stuff, He removed our deep dependency on the military and the way of life we had become accustom to over nearly 30 years of service.
