The command to make disciples is an urgent call to the church. The perpetuity of the missio Dei is dependent upon how well one generation can reach the next.

    Does the Bible contain errors?

    “For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the division of souls and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12 “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable […]

  • A Love Story Worth Telling

    A Love Story Worth Telling

    Lord, your faithful love reaches to heaven, your faithfulness to the clouds. God your faithful love is so valuable, that people take refuge in the shadow of your wings. Psalm 36:5;7 HCSB. He was 21 and fresh out of the military serving his country in the Panama Canal during WWII, and she, his sweetheart, was […]

  • The Dumbing Down of Church Membership: An Emerging Crisis in the Modern Day Church

    The Dumbing Down of Church Membership: An Emerging Crisis in the Modern Day Church

    In an effort to receive new members, many struggling churches in America have neglected the Biblical and historical model of what it means to be a member of a local body of believers.  Entrance into church membership ought to be covenantal, restrictive, and worthy of careful discernment. If a church becomes desperate to receive new […]

    Heaven and Honky-Tonks: The Theology of Country Music

    When I was 16 years old, in the days of hair bands and English rock ballads, I was given a cassette tape that changed my music preferences forever. Though I don’t remember who gave it to me, Randy Travis’ legendary, Always and Forever album found its way into the tape deck of my 1985 Dodge […]

  • The Lost Virtue of Humility

    The Lost Virtue of Humility

    “Nothing sets a person so much out of the devil’s reach than humility.” –Johnathan Edwards. The greatest influencers on my life share one common trait, humility. Pastor T.A. Duke, or as most knew him “Brother Buck,” embodied humility in a way that few ever attain. In June of 1998 he and I travelled together to […]

    Friendly Fire in the SBC: A Call to Unity

    There were many tragic events during the years of the Second World War, but perhaps one of the most troubling occurred on July 25, 1944. As the Normandy campaign began with the historic beach landings of D-Day, massive allied bombing campaigns ensued clearing the way for Operation Overlord. Around 3,000 allied planes took flight that […]

  • The Least Prayed Prayer and Satan’s Most Consistent Lie

    The Least Prayed Prayer and Satan’s Most Consistent Lie

         I have always been humbled by the story of Baptist missionary William “Bill” Wallace.  The son of a physician in rural Tennessee, Bill was more interested in auto mechanics than going to the foreign mission field.  On a hot summer July afternoon as he was in the garage trying to get an old car […]

  • Finding Rest in a Restless World

    Finding Rest in a Restless World

    So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God, for whoever has entered God’s rest has also rested from his works as God did from his. Hebrews 4: 9-10. (ESV) It is overtly obvious to me and likely you as well, that this world is becoming increasingly unsettled. As a result, we […]

    Eventually, We Must Come Back to Church

    The Corona Virus global pandemic has disrupted every aspect of “normal” life for people all over the world. Economic problems have overwhelmed some families as businesses have suffered and jobs have been cut. And of course, the tragic loss of so many people; way too many.  I have personally ministered to families who have lost […]
