• 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 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 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.

• 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…
