Watch and Listen

Sisters… I pray you will set about to redeem the time and walk circumspectly. Study the Bible – and then as you go about your life… be very careful to take what you hear and read and line it up against the Word of God. You will hear many doctrines, many traditions of men, many […]...

Re-imaging God

You may be saying… wha…? I know. Incredible. I almost hesitate to write about this bcz of the blasphemous nature of the topic, but I share this, in part, to urge awareness… to urge believers to pray and to urge believers to “wake up” and see the turns of events in the world around us. […]...

the illusive secret

What’s the going phrase? What’s the best read? What’s the best thing to be doing, seeing, saying, wearing, thinking? You’ll find out about it on Oprah. Everybody loves… Oprah. So… what’s the big deal about that? I’m treading perhaps into fiery territory, but I’ll tread… I know, I know… I don’t even watch TV. Today […]...

“The Message,” “The Voice” and The Truth.

Even so, Come LORD Jesus. Those who’ve followed the PDC or the PDL and are, were or have been interested in the “new conversation” of the quote, post-modern church, probably read from, or read in part, The Message.

the peculiar path

And it has been sort of a peculiar path we’ve traveled over the last few years – one, that for a variety of reasons, I’m not sure I’d ever have chosen early on in our life, but one I’m thankful to be traveling now. And this morning I read an article that resonates well with […]...

A letter from LightHouse Trails

I received this letter from Lighthouse Trails today. Interesting. —-ps This story is a follow up to our previous AFA articles that you may view here. American Family Association’s Resource Center is now including categories in their Spiritual Growth section (*see note below) titled: “Mysticism,” “Contemplative Life,” and “Spiritual Formation.” As we have reported in […]...

more stunners

You know… you just couldn’t make this stuff up. Could this scenario be coming soon to a church near you? Incredible.  Really, incredible.  Here’s one… the Granger Community Church event.  How about a U2charist ? Really, I couldn’t make this up. You’ve heard me say many times, if I keep shaking my head like this, […]...
