Did you ever have one of those moments in your childhood where a bunch of kids were going to do something together, such as play baseball, and two people were chosen to be captains of the teams? If so, and if you were ever picked to be a captain, then you got to experience somethingContinue reading “Essential Grace: We Are His”

“Guilty!” Now that’s a word that no one would ever want to hear, particularly in a court of law. To be pronounced guilty means that there will be a sentence to be carried out, and that’s never good.    Since I have never been put on trial or accused of a crime, I can onlyContinue reading “Essential Grace: Justified by Faith”

You may have noticed that I did not post a new article on my blog site last week.  It’s the first week since I started my blog back in November that I missed a week.  It certainly wasn’t planned but it was unavoidable.   In case you didn’t see my Facebook post, my father passedContinue reading “Essential Grace: The New Birth”

Since the start of the new year, we have explored different ways in which God has demonstrated His great love for us.  In the seven articles I’ve posted since then, we have seen how… He showed us how much He loves us on the cross. He has forgiven all our debt. He has chosen notContinue reading “Essential Grace: The Gift of Life”

“Send in $500 and we’ll give you this prayer towel that will cure you of all your illnesses.”  Okay, so maybe I’m exaggerating a bit, but I bet you’ve all heard similar outrageous claims.  It’s amazing how many “too good to be true” offers there are out there.  Take the following actual claims as evidence.Continue reading “Not Too Good To Be True”

Have you ever thought about how much you learned from your parents?  I’d be willing to bet that it’s much more than we can imagine.  How many sons learned how to work on a car, throw or hit a ball,  mow the lawn, or build a treehouse from their fathers?  How many daughters learned howContinue reading “Growing in the Spirit”

Everyone has those special days they will never forget.  They form memories that last a lifetime.  For example, how about the day you graduated from school, got your first job, or got married to the love of your life.  Or better yet, how about when the Colts won the Super Bowl.  (Okay ladies, I guessContinue reading “Christ In Us”

Boy, how time flies!  I can’t believe this is already the fourth article in this series on the different ways in which God demonstrates His love for us.  Previously we saw how He revealed His love to us on the cross, how He has forgiven our debt, and how He has chosen not to rememberContinue reading “The New Creation”

Confusion over forgiveness can be a big stumbling block for many Christians.  I know.  I was a confused one myself in the past.  It colored the way I viewed who God is.  If you’re like I was, I hope that what you read in this article will clear that confusion out of your mind andContinue reading “Remembering Our Sins No More”

Oh, the things kids will do.  You just never know what trouble they may cause.  Broken windows, broken lamps, broken doors, broken hearts — the list could go on and on. I remember once in my younger days, my older sister and I had an incident.  Like most families, our parents gave us chores toContinue reading “Forgiven Much, Loved Much”
