Interests Of Others

Interests Of Others If you’ve ever considered suicide you already know there is a deep yearning that seems to go unknown, that knows no depth and becomes something that consumes the whole of a person. It is a dark, lonely place that can not be easily abandoned without help. Few people walk out of their own accord. By the end of this day some 177 people will die from a drug overdose. Most will be accidental but a fair amount will be intentional. Tomorrow this same number of people will…

The Full Armor of God

The Full Armor of God On occasion I actually remember the Armor of God only works when all the parts are put in their proper place. If one piece is out of balance, well, it is highly ineffective. Sure a piece here, a piece there will assist our walk, but it will not offer the full protection of our Lord, Christ Jesus. When I put this website together I wanted the first thing people encountered to be “Today’s Armor” as a reminder to suit-up for the day! Since we do…

Considering Others First

Considering Others First Other people. It’s a funny thing how most of us respond to other people. Our reactions usually take our feelings, circumstances and situation into account before the person we are interacting. I do this a lot and feel confident a lot, if not most, of you do this as well. The way I react to others determines wether that moment will be loving, angry, fearful or beautiful. There are a wide range of other subtleties that could come into play, however, most of them could be boiled…

Son — John 5:19-29 Podcast by Pastor Colin Smith for The Orchard Podcast HERE >>> Please open your Bible at John 5:19-29. We are looking at the teaching of Jesus on the most important subject of all: the nature of God— who God is. Jesus affirmed the great truth that there is one God. And yet throughout the gospels, he speaks of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The Father is God, the Son is God and the Holy Spirit is God. There is one God, and he…

Faith Through Works?

Faith Through Works? The Book of James has played an instrumental role in my study of the Bible. One of the things I like most is the repetitive nature that James uses to drive home “faith without works is dead”. Being as hard-headed as I am it’s important to have most ideas, sayings and teachings told or shown to me multiple times. On rare occasions I will get it on the first go but it helps me, a lot, to have something repeated multiple times so I am better able…
