It is pretty easy to get caught up in looking at ourselves and being proud of the changes we have made in ourselves as Christian. We study the Word of God, we go to church, we serve others when it feels right. You notice I wrote “proud of the changes”. It is easy to get [...]

My coffee pot was perking very slow and making lots of noise. I told my wife this morning we needed to buy a new one. She told me to run some vinegar through it.

The new Chronicles of Narnia movie from the Prince Caspian book is out. I might get to get lose to see this one in the next couple of weeks. Chattaway at www.christianitytoday.com gave it 2.5 out of 4 stars and www.pluggedinonline.com says, “Old-fashioned heroes. That’s what makes Prince Caspian tick. Chivalry. Loyalty. Honor. Duty. Morality. Faith.”

There are lots of people who don’t ever acknowledge God that are successful. Success can be a great temptation to go at it alone [...]
