We are past the 2/3 mark of the book of Ephesians. The text is rich and helpful. The men who have been doing the teaching are from a variety of ages and stages of life, but the commonality of Scripture have taken part in a unique project, the teaching of the letter from the Apostle…

Dwell on These Things…
My column at the Twin Falls, Times News. Look for it in the Religion section of the Saturday edition. Dwell on These Things… Dear reader, there is no shortage of things to let your mind dwell on or think about in our day. There is no surprise that we behave like that which we dwell…
Trustworthy News
In a day when everyone wants to say other news outlets are “fake news”, can there be anything such as trustworthy news? News reporters who report to a base will willingly say things that are not true to insight a people to say and do things for them. If you forgot about this, then be…
The Peace of God will Guard Your Heart and Mind
The Apostle Paul speaks of the peace of God and the aid that it is to the believer’s life. One of the great problems is that most want to define peace with God on by their own definition. In this sermon excerpt from the past Lord’s Day dealing with Philippians 4:4-7, I give warning to…

Psalm 141:3-4 3 Set a guard, O LORD, over my mouth; Keep watch over the door of my lips. 4 Do not incline my heart to any evil thing, To practice deeds of wickedness With men who do iniquity; And do not let me eat of their delicacies. Christian, never forget that we are called…
