I love this little soul entrusted to me!

A bit stressed out...

I'm a little stressed. Why? I'm preaching on Sunday and I have everyone, 1st grade through adults, to teach to. It's cool, but very difficult to speak to a 1st grader and someone in their 70s at the same time while keeping their attention.

And for some reason I …

Napkin Theology

I 've just started using SketchCast. It's pretty sweet. Imagine it as a online WhiteBoard or Napkin.

I tend to be a wordy guy. Especially when I talk about theology. As I plant I'm trying to clean up my thoughts and make it as simple as possible. Most people are …

Pilate asked him, "Is this true that …

The Passover Meal

Luke 22 [MSG]

The Feast of Unleavened Bread, also called Passover, drew near. The high priests and religion scholars were looking for a way to do away with Jesus but, fearful of the people, they were also looking for a way to cover their tracks.

That's when Satan entered …

Washing His Disciples' Feet

A History of Evil

Obviously I don't agree with this video in it's entirety. Although it's very interesting how evil can wear a mask of righteousness [i.e. - witch trials, enlightenment, etc.].

The serpent was, and is, more crafty than we know. [genesis 3]

The Jesus Story Bible [Book Review]

My family just finished reading the Jesus Storybook Bible: Every Story Whispers His Name together. Hands down the best book I've read in a while.
