Mark 1:16-20 As Jesus walked beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen “Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will send you out to fish for people.” At once they left their nets and followed him. When he had gone a […]
Finishing Well
I just heard that 1/3 of Christian leaders finish well. The same statistics are visible in the scriptures. Of course, I’ve also heard this week that the only measure of our success should be: did I love? hmmm
Why the Silence?
In the neighborhood around Vann Park, a lot of the sidewalks are cracked and busted because the trees grow and the roots tear up the concrete. I haven’t written much lately because every day is so full of introspection, contemplation, and learning new things, that I’m too exhausted to write anything on this blog. It’ll […]
String me like a Bow!
‚ÄúHe made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.‚Äù (Psalms 103.7, KJV) His ways: manner, journey, path, conversation and custom, a road, the root of this is the word that means ‚Äúthe way that you string a bow‚Äù which is by walking on it and bending it His acts: performance, […]

Living by the List or Living by the Love
Louie Giglio talked about God not being about wanting us to “do this better” or clean this up, or change this part of our lives so we can do this different. He said that more than anything else God wants us. Period. He doesn’t want us to _____. He just wants us. God wants you. […]
Supplies Given in Advance
So I’m trying to think of times when God supplied people with things before they needed them vs. when they needed them. Peter didn’t see anything on the water to hold him up. The disciples didn’t see enough bread in the basket for all those people-ever. They just saw enough bread and fish once it […]
The Role of Your Lips
The lips of a priest ought to preserve knowledge, and from his mouth men should seek instruction–because he is the messenger of the Lord Almighty. Malachi 2:7
An Ok Offering of Thoughts on Malachi 1
Malachi 1 – paraphrase of Malachi 1:6-7 – You priests are the ones who are defiling my name. “but how” you may ask. By putting defiled food on my altar. “But how does that defile You?” you say. By saying that the Lord’s table is contemptible! – The real verse: “When you bring blind animals […]
A Few Words on Poverty
Some people have said that the Pine Ridge reservation is the poorest county in the US. I don‚Äôt know if they just said that because it is poor there or if they had concrete data, but once you visit there, you will hope that it is true-that no one else is poorer than what you‚Äôll […]
