Revival, or Reformation?

We are even further away from the simplicity of Christ with each attempt to repair what God never called us to build in the first place.

There have always been some who not only recognize the glaring deficiencies of what the church is, but are grieved and troubled by what they…

“Put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.”

- EPHESIANS 4:24



What is the Christian Life? It is leaving our ground altogether and coming onto the ground of Christ. It is deeper than a changed life – it is an exchanged life. Over time we can accomplish a change, but we can do nothing to exchange our life for His Life. This, from start to finish, is God’s work, and it is a work of grace.



What, after all, is Righteousness?…

The Gospels cannot explain the Resurrection; it is the Resurrection which alone explains the Gospels.”

VERSE TO PONDER
“For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.”
- Romans 15:4 (NIV)

I am a new business owner and one of my clients suggested using the new Square Up swipe tool. He said it would be easier to process payments each month. I logged on and waited 7 days for this swipe tool. My first transaction was yesterday. Everything seemed to go just fine...until I recieved a notice that my funds were being held for additional verification. As I am of course in panic mode, I figured I would just call them and straighten this out. Low and behold..no phone number and and…

The worst thing you can do to a person in a relationship is to continue to bring up or accused them of doing something when they have changed. It is called characterization. This person cannot break out of character in your eyes.

• They cheated before and now always seen as a cheater to you.
• They…

ONLY GOD

“It's the only phrase I intentionally overuse, but it's for good reason. When God accomplishes activity that no human being could possibly orchestrate, you have to respond somehow. And the simple phrase I've landed on in recent years is "Only God." It's more than an axiom. It is a theology that has been alive and well at Willow Creek…

Dr. Boyce Watkins, professor @ Syracuse University does it again.  This is my message to Dr. Watkins.

>>Boyce Watkins; just when I thought you couldn't stoop any lower you go and prove me wrong.  The title of this article is so absurd that I'm truly ashamed that it could come from a person with black skin.  You are an embarrassment to every formally educated black person in America.  You are an embarrassment to every Back man, woman and child who has ever endured…

As a Black American or non-Black American are you open to interracial dating and possible future marriage?  Would you ever see yourself going on a date with a person of a different race than yours - Black, White, Asian etc.

I am not asking for myself. My dating ended about 30 years ago – thank God, and as I grew up in the Capital of Black America in the 60’s and 70’s, society sent a clear message that interracial dating was never…

LISTEN FOR THE LIVING VOICE OF GOD

Through its posture of silent, attentive listening, the meditative approach to Scripture opens the reader up to the quiet voice of God. It sets a tone of humility and receptivity, rather than one of assertiveness and control. Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the German martyr, like many others, commended this approach. He claimed that it was the best way…

I wrote a blog piece about the recent discoveries of the Nubian culture on the Nile. These discoveries documented how it is plausible that the Nubian culture emerged before Egypt and at one time --…

How many of us will take the time to do some self evaluation of yourself ? One thing that God is teaching me is to take a look at the person in the mirror and see if you like the person you see. Yesterday , I stood and looked in the mirror to cut my hair  cause I didn't like the way I looked so took the time to do something about it. We have to take our time "in the mirror" and ask ourselves do I like what I see? What do I need to change? …

“A person without a sense of humor is like a wagon without springs, jolted by every pebble in the road.”

The country is being bought and it doesn't matter what your affiliation is all of the citizens of the United states will eventually feel the wrath. The SCOTUS has sold this country to the highest bidder. Citizens United is the very thing the our leaders from the past was protecting this country from. This unpresedented ruling by the SCOTUS reminds me of all of the old movies about corporations taking over the world and i see how they're going about it but i can't see why people are so stupid…
