‘Faith by Bullet Point‘ personal story 3rd quarter
Restoring My Brokenness to Realizing Truth by Mike God has done some paramount work in my life this past year as I attended a support group run by Restoring Wholeness. I can now grasp why so many people including myself have struggled with sexual addictions. This slavery to sin is crippling in sharing intimacy with God. Realizing the multiple truths through scripture and the teaching the Restoring Wholeness team taught, I have been freed in multiple facets of life and…

Facebook has had it’s pros and cons… …but one thing is for sure…I’m thankful for the ability to keep in contact with all those who I have had the privilege to cross paths with and come to know. Some of you are close friends and others are acquaintances – nevertheless as I scroll down my “Friends” list I have nothing but love and fond memories. Sometimes I feel loneliness because I can’t see you more often. When there is love in…

The Gift of Disruptionby Jason Caywood What strange circumstances have been thrust upon us these last couple of years. Much has been said about the impact of the spread of the covid-19 virus, from concerns about economic impact, people losing their jobs, concerns for public health and the impeding of civil and constitutional rights by officials in government. Many more words, both useful and useless, will pour forth in the coming months and years. I have been pondering these questions:…

“Fix Your Focus on the Cloud”
“Fix your focus on the Cloud” Numbers 9:18-23 – NKJ 23 “At the command of the LORD they remained encamped, and at the command of the LORD they journeyed; they kept the charge of the LORD, at the command of the LORD by the hand of Moses.” One of the hardest times in our walk with Christ is when we find ourselves in the wilderness. We have heard of these experiences before actually experiencing them. We might think that they…

“…’Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit, says the Lord…” What in the world do we really know about the power of God’s Holy Spirit? Have we really experienced it first hand? If we say we have, do we really believe that God will continue to do all He needs to do on our behalf? Will His character stand the tests of our doubts and fears in the light of our experiences? Crisis is always a testing…
“Change!” by Carol Wagstaff Groen and Phillip Lee
Change! By Carol Wagstaff Groen and Phillip Lee The Oxford American Dictionary defines change as to make or become different; to pass from one form or phase into another. Certainly, for any individual the greatest change is to become a Christian and know that your destination has been changed from hell to heaven; to become born-again.

In the middle of the muddle
Was thinking this morning about the words “muddle / wallow” and their action words “muddling / wallowing”.The dictionary definition is: mud·dle – verb: muddling bring into a disordered or confusing state. synonyms: confuse, mix up, jumble (up), disarrange, disorganize, disorder, disturb, mess up“you’ve muddled things up” confuse (a person or their thoughts). synonyms: bewilder, confuse, bemuse, perplex, puzzle, baffle, mystify “she became muddled” busy oneself in a confused and ineffective way. God reminded me when Paul and Silas were thrown into prison. (Acts 16:16-40) Now I’m far from being a “Paul” but I sure know the feeling when it…
“I gave up too soon.”
“I gave up too soon.” A few years ago I was helping out with our church’s ‘feed the homeless’ outreach. When all the meals had been served a lady walked up and asked for a second helping of food. A minute before the chef took that tray away that had some of the food on it. She looked and said, ‘Oh well’, then passed by. A few minutes later the chef returned with a bit more food. I called out…
