A quick thought from my time in the word. We have sinned like our fathers, We have gone astray, we have behaved wickedly. Our fathers in Egypt did not understand Your wonders; They did not remember Your abundant kindnesses, But rebelled by the sea, at the Red Sea.Psalm 106:6-7 NASB20 I see from this short [...]
Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession: Jesus; - Hebrews 3:1 NASB20 Last time we took a very brief look at what the priests were called to do. It’s easy for us to take what we know from modern-day religion and read it [...]
Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession: Jesus; - Hebrews 3:1 NASB20 What is the role of a Priest, in general, and the High Priest in particular?

My original prayer, for many years has been from Psalm 119:18. Open my eyes, [...]
The first thing we did in this new year was to share communion with our church family. What a wonderful time. We worshiped out the old year and welcomed the new as the body of Christ. As I was preparing to share the Lord's Supper with the family, this is what the Lord brought to [...]
Two short lessons from Psalm 26:8 this morning. O LORD, I love the habitation of Your house And the place where Your glory dwells. - Psalm 26:8 NASB Lesson one: I love to dwell in You, Lord. I love living in You. I love dwelling–abiding–in Christ. Simple and to the point. Lesson two: However, what [...]
I’ve been listening to Phil Vischer’s podcast, the Holy Post from its inception. I think I picked up on in around episode 8 and caught up that next week. I have only missed a few of them over the years. I love the fun banter and enjoy the theological discussions. I don’t agree with them [...]
