Are you ready to get your motors runnin’? Sunday we launch into Leg #2 on Rt. 66. If you were with us last Sunday, you might remember that the key word for Leg 2 is “History”. As we head into Missouri on Old Rt. 66, our first stop of 12 stops is St. Louis.… Continue reading Further Down Rt. 66

The tenth day of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement, (Lev. 23:27) Happy Yom Kippur!  Over the last few weeks I have been teaching a series called “Route 66”.  Using the old “Mother Road” as a mnemonic device, I teach through a corresponding book of the Bible with each stop.  You can join… Continue reading Happy Yom Kippur!

  Do not be anxious about anything…. (Phil. 4:6) A friend of mine once told me he was the “poster child” for anxiety. I feel that way myself on occasion. There are certainly plenty of reasons to be anxious in our world.  Anxiety is a form of fear.  It is a fear of what might… Continue reading Stop being anxious (if you can)!

Lord, have mercy on me… (Luke 18:13) Jesus told a story about two men who went up to the Temple in Jerusalem. The first is what we might call a highly religious man. In the parable, this fellow stands in the front of the Temple and rehearses for God why God should be glad he… Continue reading A few good men (and women)

We…would prefer to be absent from the body and present with the Lord, (II Cor. 5:8). I just returned home from my second funeral in three days.  Both were of good friends.  Many of you know of Jim Dixon’s unexpected death that I wrote about in my last post.  His funeral was Saturday.  Ken and… Continue reading What happens when we die?

  As we prepare to celebrate Easter this coming Sunday, I thought I would send out a small article I was asked to write for a local newspaper.  I had to limit it to 800 words, so it is a “bulletpoint” version of a more extensive examination of the resurrection of Jesus.  Here you go:… Continue reading Why I Believe

Christ, shield me today…(St. Patrick’s Lorica) Happy St. Patrick’s Day!  Since I have had my DNA analyzed through Ancestry.com I now know that I am 7% Irish!  Not much, but I’ll take it. St. Patrick’s Day has a special place in my heart.  As a clueless college student I wandered into a Pizza place/ Pub… Continue reading St. Patrick’s Day

(Traditional site of Zacchaeus’s encounter with Jesus) Zacchaeus…come down. I must stay at your house today, ( Luke 19:5). I can only imagine that no one was more surprised than Zacchaeus when Jesus made this statement.  It took place in Jericho as Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem for the Passion Week.  If you… Continue reading Up a tree for Jesus

Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple…? (I Cor. 3:16). Congratulations Denver Broncos, and especially Peyton Manning. All of us in Denver are happy campers today.  What could be more exciting than winning the Super Bowl?  How about being God’s temple and having God’s Spirit living in you?  That was the truth Paul… Continue reading Better than winning the Super Bowl!
