Learning to Pray Biblically
In the Bible, we find prayers of praise to God, prayers of confession, prayers of thanksgiving, and prayers that lift up specific requests to God (Ps. 111; Ps. 51; 1 Cor. 11:24; Phil. 4:6). There’s no verse which says that a church gathering must contain four distinct times of prayer, each of which covers one of these four different postures.

This is a significant issue to address in light of the numerous churches who practice such methodology as a means of “evangelism.” It is a discussion... [Read more]
The CROSS…Who’s Idea was this anyway?
The most important question of all time: Who crucified Jesus? Romans? Jews? Gentiles? You or me? Who crucified Jesus? The astonishing reality is that God did. God crucified His Son! It is a mind-blowing reality. Jesus was His son. And the suffering was horrific. But all of scripture is pointing us to this very conclusion. Jesus did not fight a vengeful heavenly father to the floor of heaven somehow... [Read more]
