Musings on Death

I went to a funeral recently where the officiating pastor quoted this verse from Ecclesiastes 7:4: “A wise person thinks much about death, while the fool thinks only about having a good time now” (NLT).

Planting a Church, & the People

Who are the people God uses to form a new church? Who qualifies? Must the leaders all be pastors?

How to Address Threats to the Church

Isaiah 31:1 “Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help and rely on horses, who trust in chariots because they are many and in horsemen because they are very strong, but do not look to the Holy One of Israel or consult the LORD!” Don’t address spiritual threats with man-centered solutions. The Assyrians [...]
