How in the world can anything to do with spooky, weeping, hungry poverty bring you any encouragement? That’s a fair question. But in this The Power of God’s Love Podcast I share the fuller message behind why I’m using these words.

There’s an awful lot of interest and attention on zombies these days. I don’t get the attraction, but then movies, videos, and TV shows don’t tend to reflect my preferences. So, I guess I’m in the minority. Still…what’s so intriguing about dead people walking amongst the living seeking to eat them? Life is beautiful. Death is a curse. It reminds me of a verse … The rest of the story…
The old Christian hymns often said things so much more wisely and profoundly than the “praise and worship” music that permeates many churches today. They weren’t so repetitive and chant-like. They told stories and conveyed such faith in a relationship with the one true living, loving God. I’m sharing one of those old standards here again. It uses what’s often referred to as “the … The rest of the story…
I’m not nothing. In fact, I am something. Not because of how particularly special I am just by being me…but because I love. Yep, love is the key. Without love I’m nothing.

Today’s reason for faith, in my continuing countdown toward Christmas, is about giving back to God. Are you willing to give your all? Jesus said it’s right to love God with all your heart, soul, strength, and mind. Can you do that? I’m not sure anyone truly does that. But it’s certainly a desirable goal, isn’t it? The lyrics, below, aren’t actually mine. They were … The rest of the story…
When you can see the light of God’s love shining on you, there ain’t no dark. And there ain’t no black hole in your heart…ever again. But it requires some faith on your part. However…it’s not like the blind faith required to believe in evolution or some other silly notion of our origin. Faith in God is substantive.

There are (and have been) so many men who want to own and rule this world. So many who would be king of the world…king of the universe. None of them ever succeeded. None of them ever will. It may appear they did or have…but only for the briefest of time. When you consider eternity, time without end, a couple of decades here on … The rest of the story…
You’re a Christian in a post-Christian world. Even America is turning her back on you and your faith. You’re ridiculed, mocked, and even persecuted because you dare say Jesus is the only way to eternal life with God. How dare you be so “exclusive” and “polarizing”. Yep, it’s not easy to follow the teachings of Jesus and his apostles anymore. So, what’s a Christian … The rest of the story…
