Today I learned that a very a good friend, a man of God, whom I respect dearly has gone to be with the Lord. Raymond Bond was an outstanding minister. My Brother died with cancer. But I know he died with hope and is now experiencing the greatest joy he has ever known.If I could have a last moment to talk with Raymond, I would thank him for his friendship and his faith. May God bless you, he

I'm at least 15 years behind my time. I began the course of self-discovery, not as a young teen, like many, but as a young adult, just a few months from marriage. I was employed by Coca-Cola as a route driver. My work began most mornings at 4 AM. Usually, I was in bed between 8 and 8:30, 9:00 at the latest. One night, my parents called, shortly after I had gone to sleep. I was really out of

What a weekend. Our oldest son returned home for a few months and we're lovin' it. Our worship yesterday at church was just, wow! Finally, one of the teams I routed for in football won. The Indy Colts are Super Bowl champions. I grew up 60 miles north of Indy so its special to me.What does it take to be a champion?In any sport, it takes, desire, skill, work, team work and team unity,

We have had two winter storms in two weeks. Our area is not equiped to deal with this level of snow and ice nor the power outages we've had (as I write this, there are still people without power). So, we have had to cancel our church services two consecutives weeks. That is three cancellations this winter. This sort of circumstance is virtually unheard of in our area. The biggest thing I

Interesting development with the polls about New Year's Eve. In the polls I've seen, about 57% of people claim they did not stay up till midnight to see the new year come in. I'm in that same catagory.Our church, New Testament Christian is showing growth. We have had several new families attending with us over the past couple of months. We are also reestablishing purpose, mission, and vision.

Once again, that time of year has come. It is a time of hope and joy. A time for realization. That is, God is love and in him is no darkness at all. The coming of His Son is special for that reason alone because when the Son came into the world, a great light has shone. Greater than the force and brightness of the sun, even from the days of creation. A light that shines not judgment, but life.The

Some of the biggest news over the past week has been the winter storm that socked most of Missouri. To show how bad the storm was, McDonalds was closed on Friday. Mac's only closes on Thanksgiving and Christmas days.On Monday, I got stuck on the hill up to our house. That night, when we tried to drive the hill, just after the cruve (about half way up), the van ceased moving forward. When

We had to cancel church yesterday. There was no way anyone could get up the hill. Two inches of ice with 15 inches of snow on top and no one to clear it away. We've been sort of stuck on top of the hill since Thursday afternoon.I haven't been snowed in for a long time, but this big snow has brought back memories of big snow.

It's been a while since a winter storm has hit our area and quite a while since I've seen so much snow. We got about 2 inches of ice Wednesday night and Thursday. Thursday night we recieved about a foot of snow. It's really pretty. I can even see where the deer have crossed the yard.We are stuck on top of the hill.

My Grandma Dillman died 21 years ago,. She was 91 years old. When I was young, I would spend the night with Grandma. We'd watch Friday night shows on her old black and white TV. We'd color with crayons from the cigar box she kept in the desk drawer. We would eat ice cream (the best ice cream ever & I have the bowls we ate from in the hutch), and we'd talk.When I was a teen, I would ride my 3

I am always curious about what people are reading. I tend to read more than one book at a time. There are times I read voraciously and other times, it is an emotional effort to even pick up a book let alone read it.Currently, this is what I am reading, in alphabetical order.A Scandalous Beauty (The Artistrsy of God and the Way of the Cross), by Thomas Schmidt, Brazoz Press, 2202Gateways to God

2007 will be a new year in a few weeks. Our focus at New Testament Chrisitan Church will be THE CORE (Of Who We Are). We'll focus on core values, issues, disciplines and more. It will be exciting. I also anticipate that we will reestablish our purpose and lay the vision of the congregation for the future. Psalm 33:3 The best instrument you have is your heart

The church I minister with is being given incredible opportunites to show God's love and mercy. Last week a person called asking for assistance in getting started in a new life. The church contributed generously. Their gifts provided almost 3 times the amount needced. How incredible is God!?

Purpose and vision are important matters. Churches without a defined and specific purpose tend to plug along without much effect and usually without vision. In many cases, they simply, exist. On the other hand, churches which have evaluated their communities, realized their church's gifts, abilities and resources have established there purpose and cast vision and they thrive.I have been

Two, a congressman sending inappropriate emails and IMs to a teen.I remember Columbine, vividly. I don't think very many of us have forgotten. But it still happens.

God is amazing. The Greek/Roman mythological gods were petty, greedy, selfish, impetuous, hateful, gods. They are created exactly in our image. The image of human beings. Never involved with humans except when they plead with them and when they want something from humans.They were immoral, murderous, and meddlesome. But Yahweh on the other hand, is involved with humanity all the time. He

I have a minister friend, Jim, who illustrates how the Holy Spirit of God empowers the Christian's life. He has a 15 passenger church van setting at the bottom of a hill, running, in neutral. He will tell his class (usually 10 or 12 junior high students) to push the van up the hill. They'll begin and it will roll until the vans begins the incline of the hill. Then the weight of the van is

Recently, I've learned about counterfeit guitars. Someplace in China is manufacturing cheap guitars and selling them in the US as American made instruments from American manufacturers. The Gibson Les Paul is probably the most frequent counterfeit. They look nice, but there are tell-tell signs that it is not an original. It looks the same, yet there are subtle but noticeable differences. An

Events like 9/11 are defining moments in the country. They are so significant that people remember where they were and what they were doing when it happened. Ask anyone who was alive when President Kennedy was assasinated, or when Pearl Harbor was attacked. It awakens our realization that what we think is significant may not actually be as important as we make them after all.I was in a crowded

Psalm 139 is a Safe Life (4th in the series: LIVE! Insights for life from the Psalms)The book of Psalms is both easy and hard. The more time spent in the book, the deeper one's depth of understanding. The Psalm writers nailed the essential elements of human nature, feelings, and desire of both the righteous and unrighteous. And, the reach of their understanding of God, is rich and deep. Pslam

"How great is our God, sing with me, how great is our God. All will see how great, how great is our God."Awesome has been the word of choice for many Christians since Rich Mullins' song, Awesome God, came out years ago. In fact, the word has been applied to numerous things and circumstances, so the impact of its meaning has been lessened. Even with a diminished case of understanding, the word

This third in the series LIVE! Insights for life from the Psalms. This message is called "A Safe Life," from Psalm 91.On the way home from school one day in the fourth grade, I was walking with a couple of other guys, including Don Featherstone. Don was one of the cool fifth graders at school. We lived about a half mile from school and had turned off of Boulevard street on our street, Boca

New amazing things. Recently on an outing with my son and daughter-in-law's church, I rode a zip line. AWESOME!. Climbing the hill and the 4,332,092 steps (it seemed like it) of the tower was no picnic. By the time I got to the top, I was out of breath. When the attendant clipped me to a safety line, I got out on the platform. Looking down it was like, "I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid."

My daughter thinks my coffee drinking is boring. I like, dark, rich, coffee, without any additions. My daughter on the other hand will only drink coffee if it has creamer in it, flavored creamer. YEECH! Well, today, I spent about an hour at Starbucks working on a sermon about our amazing God. So, to step out of the samo-samo, I ordered a Caffe' Americano not knowing what it was like. I'm

I'm not sure I totally understand what is going on in the world. Terrorism is as strong as ever and threatening the world. Mr. Bush said that 9/11 showed us the weaknesses of America's security. I pray that the security problems will be remedied.Terrorism as is exists today can be used to symbolize work of the devil against Christians. The devil attacks when we least expect it and in sneaky

We begin a new series of sermons this Sunday. Our Amazing God. Over and over, the Bible describes God as an amazing God. Terms such as "in awe of," "awesome," "wonder," "astonishment," and more describe the response by people, both followers and non-followers to God’s revelation of himself. Moses fell down before God. Jacob bowed before the angel, God’s representative. The people trembled at

The main reason I offer my sermons here is for family who want to see the messages. So, here is the second in the series, LIVE! Insights for Life from the Psalms.Psalm 10 - When God Seems Far Away The story of the Lord of the Rings is about a ring that is in the possession of a hobbit. The ring is an evil ring made by the evil lord, Sauron, and he is in hot pursuit of it. He has sent "the

Today has been an interesting and frustrating day so far. The van is in the shop being repaired after the accident so we are down to one vehicle-the truck. The rear passenger tire has been losing air more rapidly each day. Took it to Walmart and sat nearly 2 hours to find out they cannot fi it. There is a 2 inch gash in the tire. Was able to get a used one for $25 though from the guy who is

The Psalms has a wealth of information, truth, and understanding. In fact, the applications for life are so numerous, who would begin to count them. David and the other Psalm writers write about life. The Psalm's insights are as relevant today as when they were first penned. Here is the first in the series called, LIVE!A LFE OF PEACE "I met an 11 year old young man this week who has

This has been an amzaing weekend. My son and wife brought the baby by for us to babysit Saturday while they went to the Mizzou game. Madelynn is amazing. We had so much fun. Playing with her, watching how see reacts to everything. God is so incredible. He is the Master of creation but when he created Madelynn, he out-did himself. All his of his creation is amazing, but over the past year
