E.L.C.A. – blind leading blind – into the ditch you go…

So the E.L.C.A. has joined to noisy fray to admit unrepentant sinners as clergy. Really? As if an ‘ad-hoc’ committee of pseudo – religious posers will have anything worthwhile to say about the church as Christ defines it. The E.L.C.A. acceptance of gay clergy is false, it amounts to religion without the power thereof, demonic

fellowship

The word fellowship occurs about 17 times in the old and new testament. The Hebrew (OT) word khä·bar’ means to couple together, join…and the Greek (NT) word koi-n?-n?’-ä means fellowship, communion and partner. Fellowship, as indicated in scripture, denotes unity and oneness. Part of the confusion occurring in the church and among Christians today is

Christs call to friendship VS coexistance

I would like to post today on a trend in the church in general that I believe needs to be addressed. Recently I saw a speaker named Stefan Van Voorst. He is a talented singer / speaker, and he led worship and gave the sermon at a church I attended. The series of messages they

Nothing is alien…

…in thy world immense No look of sky or earth or man or beast; ” In the great hand of God I stand and thence” Look out on life, his endless, holy feast. To try to feel is but to court despair, To dig for a sun within a garden fence; Who does thy will,

horror supreme

I am concerned we as Christians have become, to a large degree, like academic precious moment dolls. There is so little reality in many of the books being written / spewed / excreted these days, and so much middle class ‘niceness’ it is sad. There are so many books on “how to” be a Christian

God, war and destruction

In the last weeks I have been working my way through the book of Isaiah, and I have to say I have been experiencing an opening and broadening of perspective that is profound. I would like to share a few thoughts on my experience to date. There are a lot of uninspired preachers and teachers

‘Tis hard

for man to rouse his spirit up – It is the human creative agony, Though but to hold the heart an empty cup, Or tighten on the team a rigid reign. Many will rather lie among the slain Than creep through narrow ways the light to gain – Than wake the will, and be born

epiphanies

my lack of posts is not due to sloth – but rather a lot going on. This is actually a bad excuse – because what I have planned will include (God willing) a combination of work and blog. Have you ever heard the saying ‘if you have something that needs to be done, give it

looking for lightning

during a car ride the other day I was having a discussion with a friend about experiencing God. Somehow we landed on the topic of ‘big things’ being evidence of God moving. A dramatic healing for example, say – a man being diagnosed with cancer , then it disappears with no medical explanation. I believe

psychology, self help and morbid introspection

there has been a lot of opinions circulating regarding why this world is so sick. Our political arena is drenched in confusion, doctors and specialists pontificate as to why and how things are so bad – with a dizzying variety of solutions being offered, authors make millions in throwing their opinions into the fray…and all
