Are We Exercising?
Hebrews 12:1 “Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us.” My wife and I (before she had her aneurysm and stroke)… Read more »
Four Types of Leadership
In my studies of the Bible I find that there are 4 leader types. These leader types are still seen today as well in their results. The first one I call “Saul leadership.” This type has the look, personality and ability to be a great leader, but has one flaw: fear of what people… Read more »

Luke 19:44 “They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within your walls. They will not leave one stone on another, because you did not recognize the time of God’s coming to you.” “Because you did not recognize the time of God’s coming to you.” To me this is a warning…. Read more »
