Faithful
A decade or more ago, I swore I would never read another book on leadership. As an undergraduate I readsomany I thought my head would explode. Then, as an Officer in the Marine Corps I read even more to the point of insanity! I was sick of reading about it. I just wanted to do it. So I swore off leadership books.
Before Posting to Social Media . . .
I've been listening every week for a few months now to podcasts from 9Marks and Capitol Hill Baptist Church. They are a real blessing, especially in helping Pastors and Leaders think biblically about all things "church." The most recent episode, for example, was titled "How to Leave Your Church Well." Boy, is that ever needed in the church of America! I'll probably have more to write on that topic in weeks ahead, but for now, I want to share some lessons from the podcast of several weeks ago.
The Grandness of Grandparenting
Now this is the commandment, the statutes and judgments which the Lord your God has commanded to teach you, that you may observe them . . . that you may fear the Lord your God, to keep all His statutes and His commandments which I command you, you and your son and your grandson, all the days of your life, and that your days may be prolonged (Deuteronomy 6:1-2).
Ten Years of Gospel Unity!
On Sunday, March 12th, 2017 we (Corydon Baptist Church) celebrated our 10th Anniversary! The history of CBC is unique. In 1994, First Baptist Church of Corydon had an ugly split that resulted in a group leaving and forming Cross of Calvary Baptist Church. But in 2007, by a mighty act of God's grace and power, those two churches reunified under the banner of Corydon Baptist Church! We pray that our unique history will become commonplace, as churches that were once at odds lay down their offenses at the Cross and unite for the sake of God's glory in the gospel of Jesus Christ!
Jane Roe - A Real Hero
Jane Roe was not her real name. That's just the name the feminists gave her when they hijacked her life and her story to foist abortion on America. They called her Jane Roe (Roe v Wade). But as Pastor Jim Garlow recently quipped:
If I Only Had a Brain!
My latest edition of Vanderbilt magazine just arrived. (Yes, I know it's hard to imagine I managed to graduate from Vandy, but God's grace works miracles!) As usual, I turned quickly to the Science section. I always find amusement there somehow.
Blow the
Well, the most disgusting presidential campaign in my voting lifetime is over. For that I thank God. Let's take a really big breath. In through the nose. Hold it. Out through the mouth. There. Feel better?
