    Does the bible actually SAY what you believe?

    The Bible is, in my humble and uneducated opinion; the living, breathing word of God. It is still animated by the holy spirit, just as it was when written. It was not written once as a book of instruction, it reveals. It was written to meet all God’s children, where ever and whenever they may...

    Be Thou Exalted

    O God, be Thou exalted over my possessions. Nothing of earth’s treasures seem dear unto me if only thou art glorified in my life. Be Thou exalted over my friendships. I am determined that Thou shalt be above all, though I must stand deserted and alone in the midst of the earth. Be Thou...

    America, Welcome To Sodom and Gomorrah

    When I was a little boy in the 50's, Halloween was a fun day. We dressed up in costumes; cowboys, Indians, hobos, robots, maybe Casper the Friendly Ghost with a sheet and then went to church for games and treats. Afterwards there was trick-or treat at neighbors houses but we really didn't...

    Thank you for this stunning work. Sometimes it takes some time and a few readings before I begin to sense what is there. But oh how I love it when the red guard begin to glow.

    Where does agnostisism lead?

    Welcome to CC. Serious questions may take some time to answer, no single statement exists. It may take years to fully comprehend and even then there will still be questions. The journey however, is glorious.

    No Longer a Dysfunctional Wolf-Child

    I surely had no intentions of criticism or controversy. I was responding to the expressed concern of wolves in sheep's clothing; urging faithful discernment. CC has been a joy.

    A Simple Hello

    What a blessing to be from a tiny little church in a tiny little town. There are special blessings there that others from the city and mega-churches may never know. I had to physically depart from both, but have never really left them behind. I am so glad to have you here.

    What am I seeking?

    A new member asked me a question, "What are you seeking?" Having been blessed with few communication skills I fumbled the answer. The best reply I can give is better explained by A.W. Tozer: "We pursue God because, and only because, He first put an urge within us that spurs us to the...

    You are the first one to ever ask me that question. I seek whatever it is that He is drawing me to understand. This is not for a destination, but is instead a grand adventure. No one can sound the depth, but the attempt is thrilling.

    The Mat

    We heard He was there, just a day’s walk away, The one everyone’s talking about, The one who heals, if they will just come, And sit for a moment at His feet. It’s not so far but he is big, and his mat is heavy too, That is why they asked me to help. They know I am strong and work all day long...
