Virus (Heart) Scan

When was the last time you ran a virus scan on your computer? I don’t know about you, but I get lazy. Here’s what I mean. I’ve got so much going on that I keep putting off scanning my computer for viruses for another day. “Well, with Twitter and Facebook and blogging and video blogging […]

Friends (An Ode)

They make you smile. They make you laugh. They make you think. They know you best. They see your worst. They’re sad when you’re sad. They’re scared when you’re scared. They hold you up when you’re down. They have the power to speak into your life. They are there when you need them most. You’d […]

Six Six Six

“You need wisdom to understand the number of the beast! But if you are smart enough, you can figure this out. Its number is six hundred sixty-six, and it stands for a person.” (Revelation 13:18; Contemporary English Version) Where did it ever happen that we thought we should be afraid of a number?

Christ Follower or Christian?

“‘If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me.’” (Mark 8:34b) There’s a lot of talk about being a “Christ follower” these days. “I’m a Christ follower,” people say.

Legacy of An Evil Grandfather

King Herod’s wife held a grudge against John the Baptist because he kept telling her husband he was sinning by being married to her.

UFOs, Little Green Men and Bible Interpretation

The Bible. God’s Word. The sword of the Spirit. (Ephesians 6:17b) The “word of truth.” (John 17:17; 2 Timothy 2:15) The Lord’s holy book goes by many names. YOU CAN PROVE ANYTHING WITH THE SCRIPTURES And you can prove anything with the Scriptures. Do you realize that? You can prove anything with the Bible. What […]

Top 10 Trending Topics on Twitter the Day After Rapture

The trumpet is about to sound. (Revelation 11:15) When it does, believers in Jesus Christ will be “caught away” (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17) in the “twinkling of an eye” (1 Corinthians 15:52) to meet the Lord in the air. They will be removed from the earth. That’s when all hell breaks loose. Trust me. You don’t […]

In Memory of Zion

Pastor Mike shares his original worship chorus about the Jewish captivity long ago. Is America headed that way?

How Far We’ve Fallen (A Call to Prayer)

We don’t pray. Let me explain. You see, there’s this big oil spill off the Louisiana coast and, don’t get me wrong, it’s not like we shouldn’t be busy doing everything possible to stop it, but we ought to be praying, too. (Ya think?) I know. I know. There are people who are praying, but […]
