Simple Christianity


Faith don’t need to be fancy. Holiness don’t need to be haughtiness. Ministry don’t need to be a misery. Wisdom don’t need to be wily. Christianity don’t need to be complicated…it just needs to be shared with those who need to know about it and the Savior that we, as Christians, follow.

Holiness sounds haughty but it refers to being “set apart” and as Christians we have to be in the world but, according to Scripture, we don’t have to agree with it and it’s ways. Being a follower of Jesus can be simply doing what He told His disciples to do, even when it conflicts with our life sometimes.

God loves us, all of us and for some that seems to be totally against their idea of God. But consider that He had a part in forming you in the womb and He knows your personality and your strengths better than you do. If you look around you in the world and at the heavens at night, God is bigger than all of your problems and He can handle all of them…if you will let Him. Even the little things like feeding the birds and the fish, He is involved in their lives as well. “Not even a sparrow falls to the ground without the Father’s notice.”

Less whining


What would you change about modern society?

In the last twenty years the world has changed from being one where people tried to be better to one that only seems to have spoiled brats in it. What began with the “smart phone”was the dumbing down of society. Everyone has a voice and a camera now and there’s no privacy at all. It’s not the government that has done this, it’s us.

Yes, I’m using one to write this but we could do with less videos and posts on social media and get back to being social with each other. This is just my opinion folks, I’m not trying to start anything.

Keep your eyes on Jesus


He will strengthen you

Inner Peace…


In today’s chaotic world, many people are searching for inner peace. We need to explore how the teachings of Jesus offer a unique and lasting form of peace, contrasting it with the temporary worldly comforts that many people seek today. I will begin with the Scripture that points us to Jesus: Berean Standard Bible

Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled; do not be afraid. 

Why do people have trouble with this teaching from John 14:27? Many people get confused about what Jesus is speaking about in the first place. What “peace” is He talking about? Why do I need it? The peace that Jesus is speaking about is the peace we gain through giving our life and our heart to Jesus and believing in Him for our Salvation. This peace is what you feel when the weight is lifted from your shoulders. Why do you feel this? Because the weight of your sins is gone. The guilt and the pain that the weight of those sins caused in your life is lifted and you feel an energy like you never have before!

You are at peace with God because before you gave your life and your heart to Jesus, you were in a struggle with God over your life and what would become of your choices. Choosing Life in Jesus changes your heart and your life in ways that your own efforts can’t. No matter how good or bad you believe you are or have been, forgiveness can only be found in Jesus Christ and believing in Him for your salvation. Your “road” leads to a place of regret and misery for an eternity. Giving your heart to Jesus will lead you to Heaven and a life full of His love and fulfillment for an eternity that you can’t imagine.

I hope in You


Dogs, no question about it.


Dogs or cats?

I have had a dog ever since 1967. I didn’t fully appreciate how they helped me until I was in my thirties. I have three Dachshunds now and I couldn’t be happier.

Jesus will give you His rest
