Houston Mayor

Where is the Freedom From Religion Foundation in Houston?  The mayor of Houston has issued a subpoena for sermons from pastors demanding that they turn in sermons relating to homosexuality, gender identity, and the current mayor (who happens to be homosexual).  This is the same group that attacked Clemson earlier this year accusing them of exposing athletes to Christianity and saying that was illegal since Clemson is a state supported college.  Well if y'all want a separation of the church from the state then keep the state out of the church!

Our world and country may change over the next few years and it has begun to do so.  But I revert back to Acts 5:29 - Peter and the other apostles replied: "We must obey God rather than men!"  Manmade laws will not determine what is right and wrong, only legal and illegal.  It seems that we will all eventually face a choice between standing up for our faith, or conforming to what the world says is right.  I pray that when that day comes that I will have the strength to stand for what I know to be right and that I will stay rooted in God's Word until that day so that I have the knowledge to defend my position to those attacking it (1 Peter 3:15). 

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the Lord.  "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts." - Isaiah 55:8-9  God's plans, laws, and thoughts are so much more advanced and great than anything we can conceive.  How about we rethink the laws on the books and just go by the Ten Commandments for a few years and see how that works out? 

Everybody now days likes to talk about equality but few people actually want to see it.  The FFRF tried to tell the State (Clemson) not to talk about the Church (Christianity) so how about telling the State (Houston) not to censor the Church (Pastors)?  That seems pretty equal to me...guess y'all should get headed on down to Houston.


You can see my whole post about Clemson and the Freedom From Religion Foundation from back on April 16, 2014.

2020 is Hindsight...Finally!

Wow, what a year! 2020 could literally be an entire decade, maybe more, of history, change, and lessons rolled up into these twelve months. While many aspects of 2020 were kind of sucky and we would like to forget them, it will certainly be a year to remember. And it will be enlightening when this year is looked back on in 10, 25, or 50 years to be discussed. I wonder if we'll seem like geniuses or idiots? Probably both to some extent! While there is so much that I could consider and analyze about this year, I'll try to break some of it down into four dimensions - Physical, Spiritual, Mental, and Social/Emotional. These are events and happenings from my world and perspective and I'm trying to be open in sharing and would love to hear from others on events you found most transforming. Physical When COVID cause gyms to close, that messed me up. Our town and state were late to be hit with severe cases and therefore later than many across the country to close up shop. I'm n...

Worship > Fellowship

I believe that worship, true worship of God, is more important than fellowship with other believers.  Now I'm not saying that fellowship and relationships aren't important.  But I am saying that if I'm not worshiping God, if I'm not right with him, then my other relationships can't be right.  My fellowship and worship with him is more important than my relationship with my wife, my son, family, friends, my church, and my community.  Think about it.  How can I love my wife like Christ loved the church if I don't love Christ?  I wouldn't know how to love without knowing him.  Why should she submit to me if I'm not worth submitting to?  And yes I do believes wives should submit, but I also believe that won't be an issue as long as she's submitting to a godly husband.  (Ephesians 5:22-25) Our love for others must flow from our love and worship of God.  1 John 4:19-21 reads, "We love because he first loved us.  If anyone says,...

Who Wants to be Dilos?

You're probably wondering if that's a typo or not. While doing a search for these letters did actually reveal that there is a brand and some fictional character out there with this name - my real intent was to show that order matters. You see, if we reverse the letters, you then spell the word, S-O-L-I-D. Yet far too many of us are operating with a Dilos mindset instead of getting our priorities in order and becoming Solid. We chase money like it's the most important thing in the world. And while it's certainly necessary, if money is the number one goal of any individual, or even any business, failure is surely on the horizon. To better understand the significance of the order, let's go through them backwards. Dollars. Yes, money matters. But what good is all the money in the world if you're "dumb as a box of rocks" and lack the next component, Intelligence, and don't know how to manage (or keep) your wealth? Intelligence. Let's say yo...
