I read an article about a problem that many Churches are facing. How do we keep our young people in Church? It seems that once many 'Church kids' leave High School, they leave the faith as well.

Last week, we recognized Memorial Day. God encourages memorials to help us remember significant things. We have short memories - many times it takes as little as one generation for important things to be forgotten. We see that over and over in scripture in the Old Testament where God's people simply forgot what He had done for them....

Tomorrow is Memorial Day - a day set aside for us to remember those men and women who gave their lives while serving in the United States Armed Forces. It's not particularly a religious holiday - but one I think is vital that we recognize. And the fact that we are free to gather today for worship is...

2020 was sort of a reset year for each of us as to what was truly important. The value we placed on different things changed. Nice business attire wasn't as big a thing as many did zoom calls and tele-commuted. And as many were home - the value we placed on home maintenance and even expanding outdoor areas or home...

Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson recently tweeted, "The good thing about Science is that it's true, whether or not you believe in it." And he got challenged by... the Steak-umm's guy. - He's the social media construct of the processed meat product, 'Steak-umms'. Yeah...

Is it safe to say that this has been a rough year and many are still struggling to get back to something called 'normal'?

One Sunday morning, a small group of bikers had parked their motorcycles right at the entrance of his small Church. The bikers were harassing people and swearing at them as they...

If a person has never gone to a Church service, never read the Bible - how do they develop their personal beliefs and opinions about God? Everybody has an opinion on who God is, or isn't - how do they come to that conclusion? Many times people passively absorb ideas from TV or movies - and that information without much basis in scripture...

There's a quote I referenced previously that has been attributed to Saint Francis of Assisi, "Preach the Gospel at all times, if necessary use words." I like the idea that the quote conveys - basically saying that your life, your very actions should preach the Gospel message - actions speak louder than words. And it goes along with...
