  • A Love That NEVER Changes

    Sometimes, theology seems dry and stale.  Take the issue of God’s eternity.  It is a great truth that God is eternal, yet it seems to just be intellectual knowledge for us. How are we supposed to apply the eternal nature of God?  What is it supposed to do for us?  The psalmists knew.  We read…

  • At Calvary – Ep 33 – Fighting without Sin? Is It Possible?

    Can Christians argue? Can they argue and still honor Jesus? What does a Christ honoring disagreement look like? Let’s talk about Christians “throwing down”! On Android you can find past episodes here: Of course, you can always find all of the episodes right here…

  • Letting Character Lead

    Several years ago I went to a conference called, ‘Building Men for the Body of Christ’. At the beginning of the conference it struck me how the concern was not so much for ‘doing’ something for our families and our churches as much as ‘being’ something for them. Jesus said, 3 “Blessed are the poor…

  • At Calvary – Ep 32 – A Crazy Man Praises God

    I like the Scriptures for a variety of reasons. Sometimes, I enjoy a passage just because of what the original writer was experiencing. Psalm 34 is just such a Psalm. It is a word of praise from a crazy person! On Android you can find past episodes here: Of course, you can always find all…

  • Are We Preparing?

    Why is it that some people seem to be always ready to lend a hand, help a friend, touch a life; and for others it is work? Why is it that others are always grumpy, caustic, or quick with a slicing comment? Why is it that some people always have a verse, poem, or song…

  • In Charge and Never Dropping the Ball

    Daniel 4:35 “All the inhabitants of the earth are accounted as nothing, But He does according to His will in the host of heaven And among the inhabitants of earth; And no one can ward off His hand Or say to Him, ‘What have You done?’ Have you ever considered how big God must be…

  • At Calvary – Ep 31 – Who Cares about Political Conventions?

    Last week finished the Republican National Convention. We should think deeply… not about who to vote for but about this thing called a National Convention. What are they for? What do they do? Should anyone care? On Android you can find past episodes here: Of course, you can always find all of the episodes right…

  • Living for God in Real Time

    The other day we were talking about an interesting parable of Jesus. It was the parable of the shrewd steward. If you recall, his master demanded that he make an accounting of all of his dealings because the master was going to fire the steward. The steward, afraid that he would be unable to work…

  • At Calvary – Ep 30 – Backpacking with My Youngest

    A couple of years ago my youngest child asked if she and I could do something unique together. It morphed a couple of times but finally settled on something specific: a backpacking trip! On Android you can find past episodes here: Of course, you can always find all of the episodes right here…

  • Grace, Meant to Be Lived Out

    Grace. We hear the word in church. Hopefully, we understand that the grace of God is what has saved us. God’s forgiveness offered to us through Jesus is glorious! Have we thought about what that word is supposed to mean to us every day? Is it a religious term that stays in our Bibles and…
