At my church at Cornerstone Family church here in Des Moines, my Pastor, Dan Berry, has been teaching in depth about the riches of John 3:16. He was at a funeral recently and he talked about a pastor who has been preaching for over 50 years and he quoted John 3:16 to him, as if Jesus himself actually quoted it to him saying, "God-the greatest person, so loved–the greatest degree, t...

If a person looks into the history and mythology of the Celtic peoples of Europe, we find great tales of the Druid and Bards people who were supposedly bloodthirsty warriors and battle hungry for wars. The religion of seeking Nirvana was a staple point for these people. According to ancient history of Gaul, the Celtics would regularly decorate their homes with the heads of their enemie...

It was early in the morning and the little girl and her mother were conversing in her bedroom, getting ready to leave. Whispers from the little girl to her mother were too faint for the man in the kitchen to really hear what was being said. However, near the end of the conversation he continued to hear one phrase being repeated like a broken record, as she did whenever she wa...

Have you ever bought something where it wasn't even close to what you expected, even to the point of boredom and disappointment? Didn't that leave you with a sour taste in your mouth, thinking, "I could've got a better deal than that." That's what the $2.99 special with Wendy's is all about. For $2.99 at other fast-food restaurants you get the dwarf-kid's meal portions ...

In my last post, I talked about how the Pharisees were blind and we weren't talking the Ray Charles kind. Spiritual blindness is something that has been a part of every human beings life at one point or another until we saw the light by the power of the Holy Spirit. If we refuse to let him open our eyes we will be nothing more than blind guides–we'll see everything from our vantage p...

The Law was written to men to show us that we could never follow it perfectly, which is why we needed someone to show us the way. The bible says in 2 Corinthians 3:6 He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant--not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life. Originally, the Law was given to men, then Jesus entered the picture and showe...

Have you ever really enjoyed doing something with all your heart? It is a wonderful thing to be in a field where you cannot wait to fulfill what you feel you were put on the earth for. Psalms 37:4 says, "Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart." I think many Christians feel that they should not ask the LORD for their desires because t...

Take a picture of a beautiful model with a radiant glow and youthful skin. No sign of wrinkles, acne or skin flaws. They're normally so thin they can hula-hoop through a Cheerio; these superficial models have eyes full of nothing but themselves and their own needs. Think about it, the world is conditioned to think in proportion to how pretty someone is for that qualifies him or her as import...

Pilots love to fly, attorneys love to lie, doctors love to write prescriptions and couch potatoes love to do nothing. We all have something that we love to do and do it well. It's like the woman who loved to spend money who was talking to her friend. "You know, I'm the one who made him a millionaire." Her friend asked, "Oh....what was he before you two were married?" ...
