“Like newborn babies, crave for (or long for) pure spiritual milk.  If you have tasted that the Lord is good.”  Crave pure spiritual milk.  This is momma’s milk with all the nutrients, antibiotics, and health that a baby needs.  Pure Spiritual Milk was understood to be that which was life giving and pure.  Let’s stop for a second and ask ourselves, What are we craving for?  Right now at this point, at this stage in our lives, what are we craving?  What are the cravings that consume our mind...

Hearing the Voice of God

Do you remember when you were a kid and you got those walkie talkies for Christmas.  What was the first things you would do?  Press the button and say can you hear me?  Then you would start moving farther and farther apart, checking to see how good they really worked and how far apart you could be from one another and still hear each other.  Can you hear me now? It was exciting to hear your brother or sister, mom or dad, or even a friend from around the corner or down the street when you co...

Easter All Year Long

April 09, 2023 22:00 - 24 minutes - 16.7 MB

What if Easter could last all year long?  I’m not talking about the exhaustion that comes from cooking, traveling, or decorating the church or your home.  No, I’m talking about the excitement of going to worship, the joy in seeing others, the hope a new life springing forth, the peace of knowing all is well for a moment, the love of knowing God gave all this for you and for me.  The passion that we express in singing Alleluia and the anticipation of more is yet to come.   I don’t know if yo...

Are You ONE with Jesus

April 06, 2023 23:00 - 26 minutes - 18.1 MB

Let me ask you what I think is a million dollar question? Why did Jesus endure the cross? You could answer as Paul describes in the letter to the Hebrews “for the sake of the joy set before him, Jesus endured the cross, disregarding its shame.” But how does or why does Jesus see the cross with joy? I believe it is because he is ONE with the Father.   Jesus’ heart and mind are fixed solely on the heart and the desires of the Father.   What does it mean to be ONE with another?  It means...

Totally Right, but Totally Wrong

How many of you know, you can be totally right, but be totally wrong?   Susan and I have a rule for our marriage.  We have agreed to this rule because we know it is a good rule and helps us to treat one another how we honestly desire to do so according to our marriage vows and the love we share and are committed to.  And it is how we want to be treated by each other. The rule is this.  If we disagree about something, we do not have the right to raise our voice at one another to try to get ...

Christmas is fast approaching and maybe you have found yourself listening to and telling stories you have heard a thousand times before. These familiar tales bring joy and laughter as you remember the moment like it was yesterday. So here is one of mine.  Some of you may have heard it before, make no mind, listen and laugh with me or at me as my momma used to say. As Christmas comes many of us have probably generated a wish list of sorts.  Things we would like to receive for gifts.  In fac...

Fix YOur Oil Leak First

The only problem with driving an old car is that there will be times that you need a good mechanic. With that taken care of, you can save a lot of money, but you do occasionally have an interesting story to tell. Here is one of mine.  Susan’s car had a small oil leak.  At first, I would check the oil every month and make sure it always had the right amount.  However, over time I started to notice that every time her AC would stop blowing cold, I would need to add oil as well.   So instea...

The Church in a Post-Christian Culture

We live in Florida, which means that we know a thing or two about hurricanes.  Though we are in the middle of hurricane season, Praise the Lord, we have yet to have a named storm come our way this year.   That being said, perhaps God has granted us a little reprieve as we have been bombarded by a plethora of cultural hurricanes almost every day.  One of these named storms that has been brewing off the coast for some time is what people call a Post-Christian Era.  Ever since I was in semina...

Fishing Pole or Life-Jacket

July 03, 2022 17:00 - 21 minutes - 14.9 MB

Years ago, when I was a wee little child, I went fishing with my grandad and my brother in Arkansas in the middle of winter with snow on the ground.  We were fishing in a spot that was 30 to 50 feet deep.  At one point, I cranked in the anchor, grab my rod to sit down, expressing the exhaustion of hand cranking the anchor some 50 ft.  When I sat down, my chair had spun without me knowing, so my flop into the seat ended up with me doing a backflip into the ice-cold water. Fortunately, I had ...

No U-Turns

June 26, 2022 17:00 - 24 minutes - 16.7 MB

This one on my most hated signs.  No U-turns.  The reason why I hate this sign is because it does two things to me.  First it proves to me that I am lost, that I have missed my turn, or that I don’t know where I am going.   Think about it.  You never even notice no u-turn signs if you know where you are going.  If you have a very clear picture of how to get where you need to go a NO UTURN sign is seldom seen.   You plan ahead which allows you to anticipate the turns you will need make.   ...
