Rarely is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity all that it claims to be. More often than not it’s a sales gimmick; a manipulative tool of persuasion designed to prompt impulsive action. In Zacharias’ case, however, it was the real deal. He was living the dream. Only once in the lifetime of any priest were you able to enter the temple of […]
He Will Be Great
Meditating on Luke chapter one this morning. Preparing my heart for the holy season ahead. One phrase stood out so very clearly: He will be great. The angel Gabriel is referring to Jesus, of course. He’s informing young Mary of this amazing assignment God intends for her. A son. A child of the Most High. […]
Thank Your Mentors!
George Mueller once admitted that he had never thanked God for his socks. He promptly rectified the situation by turning a grateful heart toward his Heavenly Father for this arguably insignificant (by comparison) blessing. My take-a-way when I first ran across this story about Mueller: if only all I had forgotten to thank God for […]

The Biggest Wanna Be!
Descriptions of satan in the Bible might sound somewhat intimidating. That is, until you notice one, little word: like. 1 Peter 5:8 warns, “Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.” Did you catch it? The devil is like a roaring lion, […]
Raining Cats, Dogs . . . and Squirrels?
One of the greatest benefits of home schooling is the expanded classroom. Truly, all the world’s a stage for learning. So, two weeks ago, before the coldfront settled into town, Ivy, Ellie and myself were taking advantage of a perfect day by studying math atop Grandma Sauder’s quilt spread out on the driveway. Patches, the mighty hunter, prowled the […]
