“My Lord and my God!” Thomas exclaimed. Then Jesus told him, “You believe because you have seen me. Blessed are those who believe without seeing me” (John 20:28-29). If someone asks me why I believe, I answer: I feel the presence of Jesus in my heart. Amazing that during the most difficult experiences of my life, […]
Easter was last weekend. The question must be asked, “Did I miss writing an Easter Interruption?” Confession: Yes and no. Yes, I missed writing one on Easter weekend, and no, I didn’t miss writing one. Here it is. The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. And just as God

Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Again, I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered in my

With all prayer and petition pray at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints (Ephesians 6:18, ESV).

Great are the works of the Lord, studied by all who delight in them (Psalm 111:2). The Grand Canyon has been on my “bucket list” since I can remember. I’m an OG (Old Guy) now but I can remember seeing photos of the Canyon as a NG (New Guy) in grade school and thinking… I want to
