Away from Sin; Toward Sinners The first time the word “sinner” is used in the Bible is Genesis 13:13: “Now the men of Sodom were wicked exceedingly and sinners against the LORD.” An important part of this story is that Sodom is where Lot, the nephew of Abram, lived. He shouldn’t have been there, and […]

Prayer List Perhaps you are a “list” person. Perhaps you are not. In any case, if you are a Christian, you are to be a “prayer” person, list or not. Let’s think about it for a few moments. read the entire newsletter here

Existential We have heard the word “existential,” or, “existential threat” quite a bit in the news lately with regard to the upcoming election. One side believes that the election of the opposing party’s candidate would pose an “existential threat,” but it is not clear what exactly is the risk, or even the meaning of the […]

330 Miles on a Bike, Together Just a few notes from the road/trail – Last week Tuesday four of us dipped our rear wheel in the Ohio River at Cincinatti and on Friday touched the water in Lake Erie at Cleveland. According to my Cateye@, 330 miles, which is a little longer than advertised, but […]

Jesus was Not a Victim Jesus left heaven’s glory to enter into the created world and live among those who were in rebellion against God. He was misunderstood, falsely accused, and wrongly sentenced to capital punishment on the cross. But, Jesus never played the victim. read the entire newsletter here

God Does Not Revert to the Mean I marked Romans 3:3 as one of the critical questions of the Bible: “What if some were unfaithful? Does their faithlessness nullify the faithfulness of God?” Let me point out a rather obvious point in this verse: there is a difference between “faithlessness” and “faithfulness.” The old hymn […]

What is a “Good” Christian? Recent news accounts quoted a person describing a particular Jewish man in less than favorable terms. It was explained, at least in part, why this person deserved this description, and I wondered how it would go if a Christian were described in the same way, a *** Christian. It would […]

Freedom vs. Independence I know why we call July 4 Independence Day, and it is accurate. We are no longer under the thumb of a foreign power. But in our present cultural moment, we must see “freedom” and “independence” as opposed to one another. read the entire newsletter here

But my point with the title above, “Only Jesus does all things well,” is that only Jesus does, and we don’t. None of us does all things well. You may do some things extremely well, but not all things. We find ourselves regularly disappointed in ourselves. We may feel like failures. We may consider giving […]

It’s My Choice I have two weather apps on my phone. Why two? Because they don’t always agree. Which one is better? The one that gives me the forecast that I prefer. Isn’t that how it is supposed to work? We have a variety of options, and we choose the one that’s best, for us. […]
