Doing What We Do Know “Every four years, Americans reveal that they are looking for a savior king.” – Robert Rothwell I recently received an e-mail from a believer asking for insight about how to think about the presidential election. I’ve received permission from the person who contacted me to share their question. Here was the essence of their question: I know…

“I Feel, I Think, I Believe” by Tim Challies

(ARTICLE SOURCE: http://www.challies.com/articles/i-feel-i-think-i-believe) Have you noticed how everyone today seems to tell us what and how they feel? “I feel like we should pray about that before we do it.” “I feel like Hillary Clinton would make a terrible (or wonderful) president.” “I feel like that’s an unfair statement.” I could be wrong here, but aren’t these “I feel” statements more common than they used to be? It may…

“The Normal Battle With Bitterness” by Eric Davis

(ARTICLE SOURCE: http://thecripplegate.com/the-normal-battle-with-bitterness/#more-38687) It’s inevitable. People are going to hurt us. Even those close to you. In fact, perhaps especially those close to you. With every hurt, there is the potential to wake the bitterness monster. He’s a light sleeper. And he’s more clever than we think. Even a small relationship scuffle is enough to arouse him into action. We mustn’t underestimate him. Bitterness:…

“How to Be Spiritually Miserable” by Eric Davis

(ARTICLE SOURCE: http://thecripplegate.com/how-to-be-spiritually-miserable/) You have to do one thing to ensure a run-in with misery: exist. In a fallen world, it’s inevitable. And, for many, it’s unbearable. Misery: a state of dissatisfaction, unfulfillment, and emptiness. It is the consequence of pursuing something other than the biblical Christ for salvation, satisfaction, and/or stability. Though it may deceitfully appear as happiness in the short-term, it eventually returns with a…

Blog Article Written by Michelle Brock ARTICLE SOURCE: http://www.as4me.net/22-ideas-to-help-your-children-study-and-love-the-bible/ The first time I became aware of my mom’s love for God’s Word, my brother and I were racing around the living room playing hockey.

Why We Cannot Call The Pope ‘our Pope’ – – Pastor Tedd Mathis

Why We Cannot Call The Pope ‘our Pope’ By Pastor Tedd Mathis October 2015 We live in an age that urges us to set aside doctrinal convictions for the sake of religious or social unity. Sometimes the source of that urging catches us off guard. Like when well-known Southern Baptist pastor Rick Warren enthusiastically endorses Pope Francis as “our Pope” saying he…

Mom’s Poetry – – Pastor Tedd Mathis

I’ve been working on some thoughts for this column regarding truths we need to remind ourselves of in the last days. Hopefully, it will be ready for next month (if the Lord hasn’t come, we’ll still be in the last days!). Until then, be encouraged by some of my mother’s poetry. Mom wrote much over the years, self-publishing a number of compilations.…
