He is coming again

Over 2.5 billion of us who are called Christians worship Jesus as “God the Son.” Easter Sunday is the day we celebrate His resurrection from the tomb where His body was placed after His crucifixion and resulting death. Jesus is also the reason we celebrate and commemorate December 25th every year, which represents the day of His “virgin” birth. The […]

Be an encourager in Jesus’ name

Sunday, I preached from Mark 9:38-42. I called it “We are what we believe.” Here is the message in a nutshell. First, in verse 38 we hear of a “miraculous moment.” How would you like to be involved in a miracle in the name of Jesus? The miracle in our text involved casting out demons in the name of Jesus […]

I am going to Mobile to get new glasses and also see my orthopedic surgeon who operated on my right hand last fall to correct Dupuytren’s Contracture. I want to talk to him before committing to the same surgery on my left hand. Our son Chris is going with me to hear what the doctor has to say because I […]

All things are possible to him, who believes

Sometimes when I am studying God’s word in the process of preparing a sermon, I encounter a phrase within the sermon text that raises a question that goes beyond the scope of that message. That was the case recently when I was preparing a message from Mark 9:14-29. It was a message entitled, “When we forget to Pray.” It became […]

Listen to Jesus and follow Him

Audio Article


March 8, 2024 I’ll be 80 years old. I have come to focus on that milestone. I had taken it for granted. I know that divine intervention has the power to override human intention, but I also believe that it is a fool who gives no thought to safety and adherence to the laws of common sense and good judgment. […]

Shortcuts can be dangerous. “A feller was going deer hunting and as usual he was running late. Down the road he spied trouble where he’d need to turn so he commenced to look about and saw a shortcut through a paved lot. He took it. Halfway across the lot his truck found a hole he couldn’t see and stopped like […]

This past week was a blessing. We had the new support system for the floor joist under our house installed. There is no more shake rattle and roll in our floors which are now virtually level and the cracks in the sheetrock walls all but healed themselves. Then God helped me shore up my sermon and last but not least […]

Make Jesus your rock and foundation

In 1954 Stuart Hamblin released his recording of his song “This Old House” and it became his last big hit. Soon Rosemary Clooney released her version which topped the charts but my favorite recording was by Tennessee Ernie Ford. The story behind the song tells of Stuart Hamblin hunting in the Sierra with guide, Montie Wolfe and actor friend, John […]

None who have faith are lost

I am giving you “leftovers” here. You have probably heard and or read about Jesus feeding the 5,000 men plus unnumbered women and children with five loaves of bread and two fish. This is the only miracle recorded in all four gospels other than the resurrection of Jesus Christ. I have preached it many times but this past week my […]

No one is anonymous with God

Audio Article


I met a man in town a few weeks ago who lives somewhere in Thomasville. I won’t disclose his name because he has a right to remain anonymous but no one is anonymous with God. I met him in a local place of business. We were both sitting there waiting our turn, minding our own business. We introduced ourselves and […]
