I’m currently preaching through First Thessalonians on Sunday evenings. It is no surprise that the intentional examination of Scripture reaps joy in one’s soul. This is indeed happening. In chapter 3, the Apostle Paul discloses his longing to be present with the believers in the church. He had already shown that he had been hindered…
Truth
Why I Rarely Wear A Mask
I think it might be helpful to post an explanation here why I rarely wear a mask. I say rarely because there are times, places, and reasons for when I do, but I do mean rarely. I’m not really interested in a debate between this media source and that media source; the truth is sometimes…
This Makes That Hard to Believe
When the World Health Organization says; “Women’s choices and rights to sexual and reproductive health care (a.k.a. abortion) should be respected, irrespective of whether or not she has a suspected or confirmed COVID-19 infection…*” It makes it hard to believe them when they say; “Please wash your hands frequently with soap and water or an…
Twin Falls, The Supreme Court Does Not Care About Our Children
As we follow the path lit by the Lamp of Scripture, the Bible, we know that this route will be met with opposition in this culture that has grown comfortable with the murdering of our vulnerable neighbors.

Unless this current generation’s view of God is revived with a hunger and thirst for righteousness, the impact on this generation and those to come will be under the bondage of non-theologians like Lady Gaga, and most of the entertainment world, preaching to the…
The Problem of Self-Focused Self-Esteem
The Problem of Self-Focused Self-Esteem In this temporal world the follower of the Lord Jesus the Christ must look beyond all things temporal to find one’s esteem.

To speak up for religious freedom does…
Trustworthy News

Satan Dares Us To Be Careless
Have you ever been tempted to use Scripture to disobey God? If you are being honest you understand the question and the answer is, “yes.” In a time of war, if your enemy can twist your own words to wage war against you he will successfully win the battle. Don’t forget, Christian, you are at…
