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…
Did I Mention…
For nearly a month now I’ve known of something I’ve wanted to talk about but couldn’t. It’s hard to understand the providential hand of God at times. Maybe the hardest thing in all the world is to watch people struggle through hardships. It’s hard to see those you adore not able to journey down a…
The Collapse of Simple Morality
It has become clearest in the past few decades that the public school education system has been on the brink of complete ruin. It’s rarely about education anymore. Today, the Twin Falls Times News reported that some (my guess is very few) students at Twin Falls High School have not returned to school because of…
Meet Greg and Talia Moering
Last summer I received an email that lead to several phone calls, text messages, and general correspondence from a young man in North Carolina inquiring about Eastside Baptist Church.

This Age of Religious Complexity

In the place of this simplicity are complex program, methodologies, organization and a basket full of nervous activities that require time, attention, and a lot of money that cannot be seriously considered as honoring to God. Rather, much…

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…
An Appeal to Fellow Preachers: It Is A Day For Preaching
This coming Lord’s Day for the preacher (at least for this preacher) is an exciting moment. It is the one day of the year where the church house has the potential of being full to the brim. It is a day when everyone expects you to be on your “A Game” for preaching. (by “A…
Can You Call a City a “Welcoming City” While Planned Parenthood Murders Unborn Babies
As long as Planned Parenthood is allowed to do business as usual within the region, no document declaring Twin Falls a “Welcoming City” can be taken seriously. It is a flaw in logic to say we welcome all while at the same time being silent about abortion. Planned Parenthood is not an official function of the…
