That my preacher has taught me a great deal about the Bible.
More importantly, he is in a long line of pastors who make me want to be a pastor.
I don’t agree with him all the time. But I thank God for him and I am more than blessed to be submitted to his leadership.
May the [...]
God has placed eternity into your heart and soul so that you will know that only God can fill your heart:
Ecclesiastes 3:11 (ESV) He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity into man’s heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the [...]
I have been accused of being crazy mostly because I take God’s Word literally.
For example, I don’t worry because Christ told me not to. Don’t believe me? Take a look:
Matthew 6:25-34 (ESV) “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your [...]
Leviticus 7:12 If he offers it for a thanksgiving, then he shall offer with the thanksgiving sacrifice unleavened loaves mixed with oil, unleavened wafers smeared with oil, and loaves of fine flour well mixed with oil.
Leviticus 7:13 With the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving he shall bring his offering with loaves of leavened [...]
1 Chronicles 16:8-36 (ESV)

Seek the Lord and his strength;
seek his presence continually!
Remember the wondrous works that [...]
I have always preached that we should all do an excellent job in order to honor our employers, the very leaders that God has placed in charged over us, in order to show Him all the glory and be a witness to how good Jesus Christ really is.
I know that many people (including myself) have [...]

I had to specify because I didn’t want to get a list of a bunch of pastors. Not that there is anything wrong with that but what I am looking for are teachers who are called to the teach the word of God. Those preachers who do expository preaching or going through book by book, [...]
Seriously, I had to look this sucker up on the Internet.
con⋅tex⋅tu⋅al⋅ize [kuhn-teks-choo-uh-lahyz] –verb (used with object)
to put (a linguistic element, an action, etc.) in a context, esp. one that is characteristic or appropriate, as for purposes of study.
Okay. That is awesome (not really). That tells me a little bit.
But this is the quote from the [...]
Wrestled with this for a moment;
