I’m taking a totally awesome class on Foundations of Christianity. Before I became a Christian I really didn’t know anything about the Holy Spirit. As I learn more of what the Bible says about the Holy Spirit I can see so many of the ways that He came along side me and was active inContinue reading “Grateful to the Holy Spirit”

My church participates in the Advent Conspiracy movement.

100 Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!2     Serve the Lord with gladness!    Come into his presence with singing! Psalm 100:1-2 My all time favorite Flash Mob … truly a must-see (already viewed more than 53 million times). My favorites: Guy with the “Wet Floor” sign at 0:59, the face of just about every little kid caughtContinue reading “Hallelujah!”

God keeps performing miracles in my life. Small miracles just keep happening in my life, often in response to prayers. And yet I continue to be surprised every time. It makes me wonder whether my faith is really as strong as I think it is. If I truly believed in miracles and in the powerContinue reading “Miracles”

“… For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.” Matthew 18:20 What does it mean, to “gather?” In the days before Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2, a.k.a. COVID-19) we thought we knew what it meant to gather. The dictionary says it means, “to bring together into one body orContinue reading “Gathering”

When I was brand new to my current occupation I was hired as an inexpensive replacement for a highly regarded, competent, experienced employee who’d just been laid off. My then-employer brought back the experienced and now laid off employee for 2 days “to train me.” He was charged with teaching me everything he knew inContinue reading “Close the Door and Read It”

Therefore choose life, that you and your offspring may live,  Deuteronomy 30:19 It’s amazing to me how many people who consider themselves Pro-Life take the opposite of a Pro-Life stance with respect to theirContinue reading “Choose Life”

This hauntingly beautiful song was written by Rabbi Menachem Creditor, based on the Hebrew text of the first two verses of Psalm 89. He wrote it for his daughter who was born right after the attack on the World Trade Center on September, 11, 2001, as a call to action. The only way to overcomeContinue reading “Olam Chesed Yiboneh”

A lot of workplaces, including mine, frown upon or outright prohibit proselytizing at work.

I’ve been reading some articles about bringingContinue reading “Bringing Jesus to Work”
