3/8/20 Romans 4:13-25 “Are You in Your Promised Land?” You may think that today’s reading is a little complex. And you may be right as I think that Romans is one of the hardest books in the Bible to read and fully understand. There are passages...
3/1/20 Mark 1:9-15 “How to be Totally Free!” This is our first Sunday in Lent. I hope that you are doing well in whatever it was that you gave up for Lent. I have given up a variety of things over the years. In the early...
2/26/20 2 Kings 2:1-12 “Don’t Push the Car, Drive It!” This Sunday is transfiguration Sunday in some traditions. If you remember, this was when Jesus went up on the mountain with Peter, James and John. There He transfigured in front of them into a heavenly figure...

1/19/20 1 Samuel 3:1-10 “The Soft, Gentle Voice” Today’s Scripture is very well known and you have probably read it and heard it many times. I have a special Bible that I read every year. I have read this book for many years. The passages become...
1/12/20 Acts 19:1-7 “Holy Spirit, Enter” Before I begin today I would like to tell you about an article I read a while back in the paper. I don’t remember if it was about the Minnesota legislature or the North Dakota legislature and it really doesn’t...
1/5/20 Isaiah 60:1-6 “Let It Shine, Let It Shine, Let It Shine” Every now and then I talk a little about the light and the darkness. I get this from reading John in the New Testament. I would like to point out that John isn’t the...
