Combat The Enemy With Truth

IMG_5775

The enemy always knows how to attack us! He knows our weaknesses and will come after us without hesitation. He often uses our past to try and distract us. It’s amazing to me how I will randomly have memories of past mistakes come out of nowhere and some of these will be as far back […]

Something God Hates

How often does Scripture need to reference something for it to be deemed important? If we truly believe that the Bible is God’s inspired word then the answer would be just once right? That means that even if the Bible just mentioned an issue one time, we should still take notice. Now consider how many […]

God With Us

Christmas is hands down my favorite time of the year! I love everything about it including the family time, lights, apple cider, movie specials, seeing my kids smile, unhealthy food, and of course that Hershey’s Kisses commercial they have been airing for over twenty years.

July 2016 Schedule

Football, Depth, And Jesus

Football is easily my favorite sport. Don’t get me wrong I do enjoy baseball and basketball, but football is definitely my preference. I can even enjoy a game that doesn’t particularly involve a team that I pull for. I especially loved this past weekend with the many rivalry games and upsets. I certainly don’t consider […]

Why Wait??

I remember as a kid being so impatient! I absolutely hated ever having to wait for anything. Christmas and my birthday seemed to take so long to come around, and I remember our first trip to the beach being the longest five hour ride I had ever experienced up to that point. Our culture in […]
