September 17 – #Goals
This list is a pipe dream. It is an unattainable achievement. Each and every one of the Ten Commandments, each and every one of us have broken over and over again.
August 23 – The Mediator
God is not a mortal like me, so I cannot argue with him or take him to trial. If only there were a mediator between us, someone who could bring us together. The mediator could make God stop beating me, and I would no longer live in terror of his punishment. Then I could speak to him without fear, but I cannot…
Cross Examination (2) – What Did Jesus Say About His Death?
Originally posted on Kingdoms Collide:
The first to speak sounds right – until the cross-examination begins. (Proverbs 18:17) This is the second part of a series examining some of the common claims Muslims make about Christianity. I am using a video I was referred to as a starting point and the first claim made in this…
Cross Examination (1) – Did Jesus claim to be God?

The first to speak in court sounds right until the cross-examination begins. (Proverbs 18:17) Every now and then I am referred to videos like the one shown below.

We Fit Together

Solomon’s Temple served as a focus point in three ways. It was a place where God’s presence came down. It was a place where our praises went up. It was also the place where God’s promise was made. (pt1)

We want Barabbas!” (Barabbas was a revolutionary.) (John 18:39-40) Read: 2 Samuel 15:23 – 16:23, John 18:25 – 19:22, Psalm 119:113-128, Proverbs…
May 27 – Into The Unknown
I was absolutely horrified. It was dark, horribly dark, and I was in a strange place. There were lots of trees and stuff all around me and there were things in those trees making noises. Scary noises.
