When it comes to our study of God’s word, which describes us better: dusters? Or excavators? Let me elaborate. The two instruments above essentially have the same purpose—to uncover something that has been buried or covered. Both have a role to play in discovering new things and exploring remnants of what has been left behind.Continue reading “Digging Deeper Into God’s Word”

In Times of Uncertainty
People don’t like the unknown. I’m pretty sure everyone at some point or another has felt this way. As we grow up and prepare to go out into the world (whether we go to college or start in the work field), there is a lot of anxiety that can come with change. We don’t knowContinue reading “In Times of Uncertainty”
A Prophet’s Life for Me
As we are growing up, all of us had some dream jobs at one time or another—something that we felt destined to do. For some kids, it’s becoming a doctor or veterinarian that will work with exotic animals. For others, their dream job is becoming a policeman or a firefighter or perhaps even a soldier.Continue reading “A Prophet’s Life for Me”
Homesick for Heaven
Homesickness—something we all have probably experienced at one time or another. Though there is no scientific or medical treatment for this sickness, it is one of the most challenging ailments to overcome. Why is it that we can struggle so much with this condition? In many ways, homesickness feeds off the love we have forContinue reading “Homesick for Heaven”
Imitating Our Father
All throughout my life, people have told me that I remind them of my dad. “You look like him,” “You sound like him,” “You have the same mannerisms as your dad.” (You name it, I’ve heard it!) People who have known me my entire life will sometimes call me Michael because of our similarities. ThoughContinue reading “Imitating Our Father”
Who Is God?
Over this past quarter in our Sunday morning youth class, we have been studying God’s character and nature. In our world today, it would seem that there are many different views of who God is. Some consider Him to be like a genie in a bottle, only needed when things are not going as theContinue reading “Who Is God?”
New Year, Same God
2020 is OVER! Woohoo!! As soon as that clock struck Midnight, I think we all shared in the excitement of starting a new year (especially after following a year like we just had.) When you think about a New Year, there are so many things that can be included with it: new opportunities, new plans,Continue reading “New Year, Same God”
Entering the Kingdom
There once lived a king, not too different from you or me, who had what he needed, did what he wanted, and lived rather luxuriously. One day he heard of a Kingdom, one greater than any before; Upon hearing this message, he decided to go find out more. He traveled and wandered across the land, Continue reading “Entering the Kingdom”
A Recipe for Godliness
If there is one thing I have never had any talent for, it would be cooking or baking. Growing up, my family would always watch the Food Network competition shows where chefs have what seems like forty-five minutes to cook a three-course meal without any sort of plan or recipe. To say the least, IContinue reading “A Recipe for Godliness”
Choose Whom You Will Serve
The day has almost arrived: Election Day. While some of us might be full of anticipation to see what the outcome will be, others seem to be dreading this day. Over the past several months, we have seen the candidates from both sides campaign, argue, and fight tirelessly for the American people’s votes. While pastContinue reading “Choose Whom You Will Serve”
