You gotta love a good bargain! A real bargain… I mean who doesn’t want a decent bargain, really…some people even refer to themselves as being “BARGAIN HUNTERS.” (And, they mean it!) We live in a society that loves “bargains.” Everybody loves a real deal. “Bargain hunters “seem to be everywhere you turn. No one wants […]
If you have your PHD, Doctorate or Master’s you probably want to write a Curriculum Vitae, if not, a Resume, will do nicely. Some people actually do a combination of the “two formats.” I have been thinking this week about a “Spiritual Resume.” What would you write on one? How would you “explain” or “describe […]
Most people love “a good meal.” I get it, I realize that we are all very different. But it has been said, THAT IT IS FOOD that sometimes “brings people TOGETHER.” I get that, too! There is nothing as fun as gathering with friends or family around a table and catching up on the day’s […]
This is the third and final time that Jesus “will accept” an invitation from the Pharisees to dine with them. Three times and you’re out! Three times for emphasis sake! Three times so you do not forget. But the “neat thing,” the “really cool” thing here – to consider: is that even though they DID […]
The Sabbath day, believe it or not, was getting “ridiculous.” The arguments back and forth about what “you could do” and what “you could not do”…were sheer and utter non-sense. Get this: Rabbis allowed animals to be tied up to prevent them from “straying off,” but they restricted “the kinds of knots” that could be […]
Does anybody besides me, remember the old expression: “Don’t get all bent out of shape? I haven’t heard that one in years… But it comes to mind, when reading or listening to, the Gospel text for today. For sure, this woman was “all bent out of shape!” For eighteen long years she had been crippled, […]
YOU would quote scriptures, to ME? YOU “USE” God’s Holy Word like it is a “weapon or something…” Is that the “rightful use” of his WORD… Haha, you’re doing it wrong and “I can prove it…” “Take that” “And that” “And that…” His word is a condemning word. And I will condemn YOU. I will […]
These are “amazing, exciting and even a little bit scary times” in which to live today! We have been privileged in our lifetimes to witness things that those who lived before us “could never even have imagined or dreamed of…” The world is changing in extra-ordinary ways; we watched as Communism fell in our lifetimes, […]
GET THIS! Because of Jesus, five people in ONE household will turn against each other. There’ll be “ENMITY” between fathers and sons, daughters and mothers and even mothers’ in law will get-into-the-act and it’s not even – THANKSGIVING, yet! Not good… Jesus was NOT “AFFIRMING or ENCOURAGING division” but rather was “naming the reality” that […]
“It’s been a busy week (AGAIN) there was the “Karen Meyer Memorial Rummage Sale” Friday and Saturday! The ladies (as always) were awesome! There were meetings and e-mails, phone calls-phone tag and people to meet with, places to go, and all kinds of tasks to be performed. Everyone likes to be busy! The world today […]
