Haggai 2:1-19 Participating with God

Last updated on: February 2, 2015 at 4:12 pm By Jim Erwin

Haggai 2:1-19 Participating with God Henry Blackaby made the following famous statement about God’s activity: We need to discover what God is doing and then join Him. Unfortunately, instead of looking to God, we look to two false areas where we think our church should go. The first false idea is to just follow the trends that we see in other churches.

Is Sunday School Destroying Our Kids by Samuel C. Williamson

Last updated on: January 27, 2015 at 6:41 pm By Jim Erwin

Is Sunday School Destroying Our Kids by Samuel C. Williamson Is Sunday School Destroying Our Kids by Samuel C. Williamson is a book with a premise. The church has a problem and it needs to be fixed.

Instead, we have reversed the order. Williamson insists that we have made the people... Read more

1 Timothy 1:1-11 Living According to God's Plan

Last updated on: January 20, 2015 at 12:15 pm By Jim Erwin

1 Timothy 1:1-11 Living According to God’s Plan One of the most destructive myths about marriage assumes that the glow of a lifelong relationship is but a brief prelude to what must become a comparatively dull and lackluster routine. If this premise is accepted, it easily becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, attested by ever so many “normal” marriages. The same assumption has a way of taking its toll on careers as well. I think of doctors who began medical school with... Read more
