Declaration of Dependence Upon God*

WHEN in the course of human events it becomes necessary for a people to declare their dependence upon God, to proclaim their allegiance to His Word, and to reaffirm their calling as ambassadors of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, an appropriate response to God requires that they should declare before […]

Revival. We hear that word a lot. In churches. At retreats. And at times, I think it gets thrown around so much in our circles that we tend to lose sight of what that word really signifies. Revival is more than that blessed feeling - that “spiritual high” - we experience when […]

Genesis 32:22-32 (NLT)

It is when we are alone with God that He is able to speak in that still small voice, asking us the hard questions. God asked Jacob, What is your name? To Jacob, that question meant much more than simply what do people call you? It meant he had to answer God […]

Acts 21:1-16 (NLT)
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a man who saw into the future and was able to visualize how the world should be. In his famous speech I Have a Dream, he shared with his audience his unquenchable vision for America.

Genesis 4:1-26 (NLT)
Genesis 4 is a favorite story for moralists, those people who are always looking for a moral lesson in every biblical story. This is surprising, because the story of Cain and Abel blows the whole project of moralism out of the water. Read the entire chapter moralistically, rather than just the opening verses, […]

John 1:35-42 (NLT)

In today’s passage, we encounter two men who have come to discover God’s love for them in Christ Jesus. As we carefully examine the text, we can discover a general principle on the process of how one is properly led to God’s love.
Two disciples of John the Baptist first heard the message from […]

Leonard Bernstein, the late conductor of the New York Philharmonic orchestra, was once asked to name the most difficult instrument to play. Without hesitation, he replied: “The second fiddle.

Acts 10:9-33 (NLT)
Jacob DeShazer flew on an American bomber to drop bombs over Japan. But his plane and crew did not make it out of Japan. Captured and imprisoned, he developed a deep hatred toward the Japanese. Then one day he was given some time with the Bible. God captured his heart. But what effect […]

John 10:1-21 (NLT)
Urban realities limit our understanding of the intimate care of a shepherd towards his herd and the life-dependent relationship the sheep have to their caretaker.
I happen to be an urbanite displaced in what can only be described as farmland. Every morning, I drive out from our street to be greeted by a fenced-in […]

Colossians 3:1-17 (NLT)
Shamdeo was a child who was abandoned by his mother at birth. The helpless baby was left to die at the hands of forest wildlife. It just so happened, however, that when a den of wolves came upon the baby, instead of making a meal out of him, they decided to take the […]

Acts 9:32-43 (NLT)
It’s easy to forget that there’s more to these stories than the healings. They’re important, to be sure, and they are remarkable, there’s no denying that. It is dangerous, however, to fix our eyes on just the healings, because to do so sets us up for discouragement when healings do not happen. I’ve […]

Acts 8:9-25 (NLT)
The man named Simon mentioned in this passage liked being the center of attention. When he was a sorcerer, people “oohed” and “ahhed” at his magic. You can be sure that whatever power he had, it did not come from God, but the folks in Samaria sure thought there was something divine about […]
