I do a little ghost writing as part of my personal devotional discipline. I have been doing this for years now as I find that it helps me with my spiritual life formation and growth in my faith in the Lord. This blog site is part of that discipline, but I also keep a personalContinue reading “Redeeming the Time”

The 9th of Av
I thought I would write a brief blog about the 9th of Av, an infamous date for the Jewish people known also as Tisha B’Av; this year it lands on July 26th. On this date in Israel’s history: 1313 BC – The Jews receive a bad report from 10 of the 12 spies. (Deuteronomy 13:26-33)Continue reading “The 9th of Av”
For Your Eyes Only
The title of this blog sounds like an old James Bond spy movie from the early 80’s or a Shena Easton song from the same era, or both. In reality, what I am really trying to say here is, ‘only with your eyes shall you look,’ but it didn’t sound as cool. It’s a phraseContinue reading “For Your Eyes Only”
What If You Knew?
While we are reminded regularly that ‘no one knows the day or hour’ of the Rapture, we can know the season, and we’re in it pretty deep right now. The watcher community is lit right now with a lot of comm traffic regarding the Lord’s return, what’s happening with the global economy, the tensions inContinue reading “What If You Knew?”
Perilous Times
In his last letter to us, the Apostle Paul gives a brief picture of what the ‘last days’ world would look like. “But know this, that in the last days perilous (stressful) times will come: 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 unloving, unforgiving (irreconcilable), slanderers, without self-control, brutal,Continue reading “Perilous Times”
We’re Getting Close!
It’s been a bit since I posed a blog. I’ve been jammed up with work and such, mostly occupying and doing what I am to be doing during this season. The day I parked my bus, I went to the Christian school where I am serving as a foreman to begin a summer project. IContinue reading “We’re Getting Close!”
Me Think’s We’re Close
There’s something about this Pentecost season that has alerted my spiritual senses like never before. I have been praying more, in the Word more, studying more and seeking God for His presence in my life like never before. I have been through some tough stuff in the past, but what I am feeling now hasContinue reading “Me Think’s We’re Close”
Sid Needs Love Too
I was thinking about how people love one another, how they are attracted, or detracted from each other on the basis of how they look, their age, appearance, weight, social skillset, personality, and life status. As believers in Jesus, we are to love everyone as Christ has loved us. John 13:34; 15:9,12 &17:23 I likeContinue reading “Sid Needs Love Too”
Packed Up & Ready to Go!
As a prepper pastor, I have found myself always in a state of readiness for ‘come what may.’ When I was living in LA, it was about earthquakes. When I was in upstate NY, it was about being snowed in for a season without power and such. Here in the Midwest, it’s about tornados. AsContinue reading “Packed Up & Ready to Go!”
In the Midst of the Mess
They say you should never grocery shop when you’re hungry, or make rash decisions after a personal tragedy or lack of sleep. I hear this and try to abide, but I find myself writing a blog from a place of anger, rage, and a feeling that justice is not being served for the body ofContinue reading “In the Midst of the Mess”
