  • At Calvary – Ep 28 – 3 Card Monte in Life, the Church and Politics

    When we think about the important issues facing America right now, we need to hear clear and helpful information from our leaders. In politics, in culture, and in faith we need our leaders to tell us what they believe and what they intend to do. The difficulty is that too often we don’t know if…

  • The Christian Atheist – A Scary Thought

    Today we think about one of the oddest actions in the world. No, it isn’t when people who don’t believe in God act like they don’t believe in Him. It isn’t when people who are iffy about God act like they don’t believe in Him. No, the oddest action to me is when those who…

  • The Mystery of Knowing God

    Mysteries. They catch my fascination. I love a good who-done-it. They stretch my mind. They capture my imagination. They make me want to solve the puzzle before it is revealed. Have you ever thought of the wonderful mystery of knowing God? I mean, He is there – the King of the universe – and He…

  • The Power We Have (encouragement)

    This week I am thinking about God’s uncommon faithfulness. He was faithful to Paul when he was heading to Rome. Paul’s relationship with God tells us much about God’s relationship with all of His people. God is faithful. He encourages. He works when we cannot see Him. He cannot be stopped! (See Acts 27-28) This…

  • “Oops! I Did a Good Thing!”

    “Oops!” Haven’t we all said that? We say it when we do something poorly or accidentally. We say it when we wish that we could have done something different. It is an exclamation of our mess ups. Have you ever said “oops!” when you did a good thing? How often does that happen? Does it…

  • At Calvary – Ep 27 – Number 23 on the Top Theological Questions Asked of Google

    The word omnipotence is one of those five dollar words that can easily trip us up. It means all powerful. However, what does that mean about God? And what should that do for us who believe in Him? On Android you can find past episodes here: Of course, you can always find all of the…

  • At Calvary – Ep 26 – The Glory of Gospel Thinking

    When we think about Christianity from the perspective of being good people, good neighbors, and avoiding doing “the bad stuff”, I wonder if we aren’t missing something. I wonder if we aren’t missing the glory of living and seeing life through the gospel. On Android you can find past episodes here: Of course, you can…

  • At Calvary – Ep 25 – Families and Patriotism

    As we approach July 4, we will be thinking about barbecues, fireworks, and our country’s birthday. In our families, what do we teach our children about patriotism? On Android you can find past episodes here: Of course, you can always find all of the episodes right here…

  • 4th of July Thoughts

    Wow! Another 4th of July.  Happy Birthday America! As I think about July 4th, I think about all the history of those days.  I think of the people whose lives were made harsher as tyranny increased.  I think about how the founding fathers grew more and more impatient with the conditions that they found themselves. …

  • At Calvary – Ep 24 – Fitly Spoken Words

    What does God mean by a word fitly spoken? He says that they are as valuable or as beautiful as apples of gold in a setting of silver. Do we value it? Do we show it by doing it? On Android you can find past episodes here: Of course, you can always find all of…
