I think it's safe for you to assume that all men deal with the issue of sexual purity - or all human beings in general.
If you believe that you will not experience the life of God's blessing RIGHT NOW, simply because you have not uprooted every tho…
Genetics loads the gun ..enviroment pulls the trigger. Genetic predisposition or familiar spirits? We're effected by our ancestory both in flesh(dna) and spirit(generational curses) The great news is that the curse is "deleted" when we are washed in…
Ex. 20:5, Ex. 34:7, Num 14:18 & Deu 5:9 all talk about, "visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, and on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me"
I wonder if these passages of scriptures are dire warnings for us that…
Hi Steven,
I have been to Roanoke. Stayed there for the Martinsville race. Nice area. I'm about six hours north of you. Let me know the dates and cost of the event. I'll put it out. God Bless
Glad to meet you and your lovely family. "God is good" is evident in your family pictures. We will inherit my daughter's Boston next week when she gets married. Unfortunately, her husband to be is alergic to dogs and they can't have dogs in their new apartment. I've asked her if she'd reconsider getting married.
I've taught for 26 years in a private Christian high school teaching a variety of subjects. Through the years Bible and World History have been the main stays.
I don't know if you have seen my "Discussion Issues" blog on "What is God Up To" but about a month ago I lost my teaching contract for next year. Our school has lost close to 100 students in the past three years. As a result the school association will have to close one of the grade schools and cut 8-9 teachers -most of whom are on the top of the pay scale.
I've gone through a grieving process in the last few weeks trying to imagine what life will be like without teaching. I'm asking God for a renewed vision of where He would have me serve Him in the next chapter of my life. Though it has been difficult, I'm beginning to see this more as an adventure with God.
I notice that you have the Boston. We've had several Bostons over the years and can't get enough of them. They're intelligent, kind, loving, and an absolute fun dog to have around. Growing up with Bostons in our family, my son and daughter both have one in their families.
Hi Steven,
We are 12 miles north of Hagerstown, MD in South Central PA. Gettysburg is 38 mile ne from us. The MD/PA line is only five miles from my house. I've been through part of S VA. Martinsville, Bedford, Appamatox, Walton's Mtn (I forget the real name now), Waynesboro, Lexington, Etc. Beautiful part of the country.
Steven,
this looks like a great site....i look forward to talking with you on matters of sexual purity and the like. where in VA do you live?
God bless,
Chris
Everybody ends up on those dead ends at one time or another.
What's frustrating to you right now....why do you feel you're at a dead end? If you want to talk more one on one send me a message here on RH or to my email at brent@leadershipequip.com.…
I'm sorry Nicholas - I got in a hurry and used the wrong name....I apologize.
I'm convinced that we all need good mentors....in life...and to help us decipher our callings.
How is the men's breakfast going? Any opportunity for a sage/mentor there?…
Brent i see you included my entry but address your comment to Gary, i will give you a quick response i am finding it tough at the moment i have been praying for a sage/mentor to come alongside and its really difficult i suspect God is asking to look…
Jonathan, I remember years ago God healed me physically of a bad back. My friend prayed for me, was not touching me herself, and I felt this warmth on my back and then presuure, more pressure, till eventually the bone that was out of place God put b…
Eve, I am a very "self protective" person, however, when God asks me to go to church or mix with christians that puts me in my "uncomftable zone" I will do it because I love His body. So I do think it is possible to be both self protective but not w…
Thanks for your comment Isha.
Gary, your example also reminds me of how Jeus walked in perfect peace....no fear...yeah! I wana know Him more too! I want that peace that flows like a river and never ends! There is SO much more in Him!
Jim, welcome back!
I was wondering how your work with your teenage son was going! I am glad Pat flushed you out of hiding!
You do remember that hiding (or passivity) is the sin of Adam don't you? We need to get back into the fray even when it scar…

Was praying for you Deborah - that He would shine His light so you will be able to see the truth from the lies, renounce "agreements" you have made, and come into a larger place of freedom . . .
When studying the verse, "Come unto me (Jesus) all ye who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest. Learn of me, for I am meek and gentle of heart," I read one author defining meek as being the opposite of anger - which led me to James whe…
