I grew up in a “separatist” Church. Secondary separation was normal, as was protesting, if not boycotting, various stores, restaurants or manufacturers of toothpaste. We tapered our hair, forced girls to wear culottes, and demanded only one version of the bible was good enough to use. This English bible was so good that if you … Continue reading »

What a glimpse of God can do…
The world was rocked on August 16, 1977. The King of Rock ‘n Roll had died. Millions of people mourned their loss and thousands gathered around Graceland. Elvis Presley was perhaps the first true American rock legend. Even kids today, who most likely have never even heard one of his songs, still know him as…”the … Continue reading »

I’m guessing that you could answer both of those questions and count the people / times on both hands…and perhaps have fingers left over. Why is that? Why is it that on the average, only 2% … Continue reading »
How to Get on Fire for God by Ray Comfort (pt.1)
Below are some notes I took while at an evangelism conference in Indianapolis, IN, July 24-26. There were 6 sessions, but I am unsure that I’ll have six parts to this series. Enjoy. Questions to ask yourself: Do you understand the plight of the ungodly? Do you understand your responsibility as a Christian? What are … Continue reading »
Book Review: Evangelism in the New Testament by Jon Speed
What is the strongest ministry in your church? Would evangelism make the top 5? The top 10? Would it come to mind at all? Why don’t more Christians evangelize?

Acts Facts
Today just a hodge-podge of miscellaneous thoughts from my reading in Acts, in no real order of significance: Acts 14:22 – “…Through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God…”; I’m not sure if your gospel details these kind of “promises”…but if it doesn’t you may want to read 2 Corinthians 13:5. Acts 15:3,4 … Continue reading »
