    The forbidden fruit

    It absolutely makes no difference at all what type of fruit it was. It matters that God said this is off limits and they were disobedient.

    Serenity Prayer

    The Serenity Prayer says God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; enjoying one moment at a time; accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; taking, as He did, this...

    Do You Believe in Ghosts (Seriously)?

    Do you remember in scripture where when Saul was king he went to a medium and had her raise up Samuel for him? There is no dispute in scripture that she actually did so. It says that Samuel told Saul he would be dead within the next day and with him where he was and that actually happened. It...

    that's true. Self confidence helps alot when other people see it

    Bullying

    I don't know. I see some adults that like to pick on others. Adults are just more subtle about it. Maybe it about maturity rather than age or gender

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 4

    Me and my son have a meeting today with a clinician to talk about our diabetes. WE meet with this person about every 2 or 3 months to discuss how to manage our diabetes. He has type 1 and I have type 2. Mine has been doing good lately.

    Friendship with the World James 4:4-6

    I'm not saying that everyone thinks that way. But, I have seen it in some cases. I think it is a part of our sin nature to be impatient, to want to do things our own way and not to trust God with the results. Also sadly I think some people just see the church as a business rather than as a...

    Bullying

    I haven't noticed ignoring the bully working. It just seems to make them bolder. Now, there is a whole new level of bullying which didn't even exist when I was kid named cyberbullying. Kids have been known to commit suicide because of it

    Bullying

    I think that is the danger of bullying. I have seen kids who were much smaller than the person picking on them decide the only way to deal with it is to bring a knife or weapon to school and threaten them. Then of course the kid who brought the weapon gets suspended and possible legal issues...

    Taming the Tongue James 3:3-6

    I have found I have to limit the amount of time I socialize in the office. I don't want people to think I'm rude, but it is amazing how much people get into other people's business. Fortunately, since my job is community based, I'm not there that much. Maybe an hour or two an day at the most.

    Bullying

    One of the kids I am thinking of did actually have a meeting in the principals office and I don't know that this stopped it. Maybe for a period of time it will. All bullying also does not go on at school, but also after school That was usually when fights would break out when i was a kid...

    What do you look for in a church?

    so how do you recognize the presence of the Holy Spirit?

    Bullying

    it seems like bullying is in the news more these days, but it doesn't seem like it has helped make it less prevalent. I work with kids and teenagers and a lot of them tell me often that they are being bullied. I know I was bullied a lot as a young child. What would you tell a kid if he said...

    Taming the Tongue James 3:3-6

    That wouldn't help because then you wouldn't be using your words in a positive way.

    Taming the Tongue James 3:3-6

    I think it's easy to fall into the trap of gossip even when there is no hatred. But, I think this passage is about more than that. It is not just not saying bad things, but also using our words to encourage and build up other people and bless them. I find there are also times when I should...

    Friendship with the World James 4:4-6

    I think it is a sign of a lack of faith. Church leaders may not see growth the way they think they should see it so out of fear or panic they turn to worldly ways of doing things to appeal to the flesh. Jump from one popular book to another in sermon series or one popular activity to another...

    Friendship with the World James 4:4-6

    James 4:4-6 says 4 "You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. 5 Or do you think Scripture says without reason that he jealously longs for the spirit he has...
