It has been several years now, so my memory of the details may not be spot on. But as I remember it, one day the church phone rang, and I heard a woman’s voice. She mentioned her name and that she was then at the mini storage place at the corner of 12th and Highway...

Sep 19, 2024 | Wednesday

I wonder if the Lord will ever let me know how many times during my life I have quoted this verse of scripture. Has it been a thousand times? Ten thousand times? I know that I have preached from the context of Romans 8:28 several times. And what a wonderful context it...

Goodness and Severity – Romans 11:18-25

Sep 9, 2024 | Sunday Morning

Some of the silliest commercials on television are a series promoting a brand of men’s hygiene products. One of the earliest in this long series was particularly funny. The first ran for a few weeks, and it was apparently so popular that they came up with a sequel,...
