Along US 25 in Waynesboro, Ga, Maranatha Community Church felt it was a good idea to post this sign. The message seems to be that God is never mad at anyone for any reason. The sign is clearly visible from the highway although best visible to northbound traffic. It is a permanently constructed, not easily…

A Rant & A Revelation
I often peel through forums looking for vintage chess sets. I love to play, am teaching my kids to play and next school year will start a chess club with our local Christian Educator’s Association. Recently looking for a specific period style I have noticed several auctions online that state: “Vintage/Antique Authentic French Regency, Mid…
Hearing & Knowing the Spirit of God
Preparing to teach a short course on God the Holy Spirit, I came across and older excerpt from Ferguson on John Owen entitled, “The Trinitarian Devotion of John Owen“. Ligonier posted the excerpt in 2015 and today I share it with you in summary. As it is, many protestants are absent in knowledge of the…
When Our Lives Prohibit Our Prayers…

The Point: Shhhhhh stop talking so much for God before you think…
Just a quick thought: I know it is well meaning for many of us to just post things about the Lord, the Scriptures, Jesus Christ, the Gospel and how God works, is, thinks, acts etc. One thing needs to run through our minds before we hit the “post” button. Is what I am saying…
Is My Church Healthy?
Gaging health in the local church is one of the favorite chatters of our culture. Sadly, because the word of God has fallen to a guide or tool rather than the authority, anyone can search and find plenty of pundits giving measurable scales to health. The difference in my thoughts today is that I want…
A Man Being His Own Savior
THERE ARE fundamentally only two doctrines of salvation: that salvation is from God, and that salvation is from ourselves. The former is the doctrine of common Christianity; the latter is the doctrine of universal heathenism. “The principle of heathenism,” remarks Dr. Herman Bavinek, “is, negatively, the denial of the true God, and of the gift…
Voice in the Wilderness is NOT a voice on Social Media
The lazy Christian has his mouth full of complaints, when the active Christian has his heart full of comforts. – Thomas Brooks I written many times on subjects like these mainly because I see grave damage, division and distance happening among the people of Christ due to opinions, correction and the like in the name…
