This is the unbelievable story of 38 Jews who survived the Holocaust by living in a cave which now is known as the 10th longest cave in the world, hidden under a Ukrainian prairie. Its a remarkable story: http://www.aish.com/63053312.html
Dehydrated
What is it? How is it that reading Scripture–the very words of God–seems so mundane. I have allowed reading the Word to bore me; it has become only routine. Lord, I am horrified at my own apathy. I am thirsty, yes even dehydrated, but unaware and unmotivated. Renew my love for You and Your Word….
Midnight Miracle in Disguise
At 2:00 a.m. this morning, I embarked on what I planned to be a 10 hour journey to New York for a friend’s wedding. An hour later, I was pulled over on the side of the road after hitting a pothole and blowing not one, but two tires. In the process of changing the first…
Hiding The Light
When Christians express to me their commitment to evangelism, I am always tempted to ask them what they’re doing about it. As a church we often include evangelism and discipleship in our carefully formulated mission statements…but I must question if in reality we, myself included, do a better job of hiding the light. Just last week…

Technopoly, by Neil Postman
Technopoly: The Surrender of Culture to Technology, by Neil Postman
I found this book very interesting and thought-provoking. As I have not had time to compile my thoughts into paragraph form as regarding this book, I thought I would just share the notes that I took while reading. While not written from a “Christian” perspective, I do believe that Postman offers a lot of good advice for Christians and non-Christians alike. This is a book I would recommend for those looking to have their eyes opened to the path of technology in our culture and its consequences.
Faith is a Verb
“Where there’s no risk, there’s no faith; where there’s no faith, there is no power or joy or intimacy with God.” – Chip Ingram
Even the Little Things…
I know I sometimes question how much God cares about the little things. Things like…cellphones. I only mention this because I have a track record – nine cell phones in five years. Admittedly, I don’t want to say that God desires that I have a cell phone, or anything of the sort. However, God does…
Spurgeon: The Gospel
“We are sure that the Gospel we have preached is not after men because men to not take to it. It is opposed, even to this day. If anything is hated bitterly, it is the out-and-out Gospel of the grace of God, especially if that hateful word sovereignty is mentioned with it! Dare to say,…
The Bethlehem Star
For Christmas, my family and I re-watched a DVD we own entitled, The Star of Bethlehem, which explores the reality of the star proclaiming Christ’s birth and the wonder of God’s poetry in the sky which was perfectly aligned at Creation to declare Christ’s birth and death. Check out the website here. Merry Christmas!
