Recognizing the Presence of God

My family and I have rarely been on a vacation. My kids don’t know what the word means. Yes, we’ve spent weekends away from home, usually as a guest speaker at a church, or visiting a preacher friend, etc. We have only once (that I can recall) left home on what I would consider a [...]

Learning Discernment

1…2…3…[silence]…. CRASH!!!!! Picture this: We’re moving. My wife packs a box – LARGE box. Not heavy, but large; so large I cannot see over it and I cannot see around it. There are steps. How many? I do not know. So my thoughtful wife decides to count them for me as I carried the box down the ste

The Faith to Discern

Returning from our detour on prayer back to our study on Hebrews 11, we pick up with verse 21 concerning Jacob and his blessing of Ephraim and Manasseh at the end of his life. By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of [...]

The Praying Hands

It was decided by the flip of a coin. One was bound for fame and glory; the other, unknowingly, doomed to shattered dreams. There names – Albrecht and Albert Durer, brothers. Their dream – to become famous artists. But if you are familiar with the story behind of “The Praying Hands,” you know th

Lord, Teach Us To Pray

Such were the words of the disciples in Luke 11:1. Many today have the same desire, the same questions about how to pray. As we continue our look at Genesis 18 and our study on prayer, this conversation Between Friends demonstrates to us various aspects of prayer. Take note that in Abraham’s praye

Forged Prayer

The paper was signed and returned as instructed and very promptly, I might add. But the signature was…well…questionable. Unless “Mrs. Smith” had suffered from a stroke since the last time she signed a paper or went into convulsions while signing this paper, this was not her signature. Having bee

The Hose of Prayer

The water table was high. The well was deep. The pump was pumping. The faucet was on. Water was expected to pour from the faucet, yet water was nowhere to be seen. Such was the scene at my Mom and Dad’s house when I was a teen. Mysteriously, the water that had poured into our [...]

Between Friends

The day of visitation was coming to an end. Friends had met together, fellowshipped, shared good news and enjoyed a meal. The news of a mother’s first expectancy was revealed with reactions of unbelief and laughter resonating among friends. As the day drew to an end, the host accompanied his friend
