This goes beyond justContinue reading “The Inconsistent Battle”

The Great and The Gentle
It’s always perplexed me how the Jews of Christ time could not recognize his divinity. Now, as I’ve gotten older, I’ve realized more that I’ve always gotten the information from the believer. It’s easy to see something the way someone once you to see it. Yet even Matthew uses the fulfillment of prophecy to helpContinue reading “The Great and The Gentle”
Barabbas: We are made Free
In the final hours of Christ’s life, He is taken before Pilot, who interviews Him intently.

A strange sight just a mile away Another brightContinue reading “The Rose on a Hill”
The Caged Bird
The other day, my wife was on a walk with the dog. Nearing the end of the walk, the dog seemed unusually interested in the trunk of a car. Her mind started thinking the worst when an injured bird leaped out from its hiding place. Her immediate thought was to help, but she knew IContinue reading “The Caged Bird”

Road to Tennessee Part 1
“How was Tennessee?” Over the last few years my wife and I have been through a rollercoaster of events. It challenged us to become better in many ways, but left us often lost for a path forward. We spent years fighting my wife’s health searching for a doctor who would have an actual path forContinue reading “Road to Tennessee Part 1”
