Fear, Worry, and Being Prepared

One of the most-repeated commands in the Bible is to “fear not.” Jesus told us in the Sermon on the Mount not to worry about tomorrow. And Paul assured the Philippian Christians, Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding,…

Worship God – or Perish

“This people honor Me with their lips, but their heart is far away from Me. But in vain do they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.” Mark 7:6-7 We often don’t see worship as eternally significant. But God says to us, “We can either worship Him with great joy or harden our hearts and perish”. Psalm 95 urges us…

The Tangible Explosive Power of Prayer

I was blessed to have Christian parents and to be raised in a Christian home where God was honored. My mother was a real prayer warrior and encouraged us to pray about everything–nothing was too big or small to carry to the throne room of God. Our best example of the power of prayer was Jesus himself. Even though he was the…

A Great Big Thank You…

….to our leadership, staff, and helpers who made the Love One Another Banquet so enjoyable. The room was decorated beautifully, the food was delicious and the games had me laughing the whole time. We missed those who couldn’t attend. You missed a real treat. In an atmosphere like we had, it gave us an opportunity to have conversations with those who we…

His Word and His World

When writing to the church in Rome, Paul says, “For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For His invisible attributes, namely, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse” –…

Life and Death

I don’t know if you have noticed, as I have, how many deaths we’ve experienced here at Three Point in the last few months. Some are deaths of our members and some are the deaths of our family members or friends. I have used up my box of sympathy cards and need to purchase another. I don’t know if the cards have…

Dry Seasons and Thankfulness

O Lord, you have brought up my soul from Sheol; you restored me to life from among those who go down to the pit. Psalm 30:3 If you’re like me, there are times when we are spiritually hot. We have a hunger to read His word. We have a spring in our step as we face each day and the things the…

Going Big

As I’m writing this, Margie is busy packing for our trip to Salt Lake City (notice how I got out of the packing…). We are meeting all of our children and grandchildren there to spend a few days skiing, snowmobiling, and family time. I was reminded by Margie (and many, many others), that whenever I get involved in an activity, I usually…

The Church that Jesus Built

We just finished a series on The Church that Jesus Built. We looked at the differences in the mindset of the modern church in light of what Jesus said the church should be. My prayer is that we grew as the body of Christ during this study. I believe the way we view the Church will determine what we get from the…

2020 Vision

I don’t know about you, but I’m excited about the New Year! So, I have a question for you. How’s your vision? I know we all wish we could answer that it’s 20/20, however, many of us need glasses or contacts to get us to that point. Well, this year is 2020! I know it’s not quite the same as physical vision,…
