A Day In The Life Of A Pastor
What does a pastor really do all day? I’ve heard people say “The pastor has it so easy; he doesn’t have to go to work. It’s not a real job. What does he do all day? All he has to do is write a few sermons a week.” So, to set the record straight: What does a […]

Facing The Unknown
Are you going through difficult times? Maybe the future seems so unknown. That’s where my family is right now. We’re dealing with some situations that have invaded the security of our home and challenge our faith. That can raise a lot of questions about where God is and what He’s doing right now. And if […]
Where Are You, God?
We can get many things out of the Christmas narrative. Obviously there’s the main focus of God sending the Savior born in a manger.
