Easter Is Over. Now What?

Lent is over. Good Friday is history. Easter has come and gone. Now what? If I was one of the original apostles meeting with Jesus after His resurrection, my next move would have been to wait. Once when he was eating with them, he commanded...

Writer’s Block

I tried all weekend to come up with an idea for Music Monday, and nothing. I seem to have writer’s block. I had some ideas of things to write but nothing music related. I’ve been listening to my Christian playlist on my iPod all weekend,...

The Free Offer of Mercy in God’s Word

I sat down to write this post last night and realized I had no idea what to write. Seems appropriate after my posting of MercyMe’s “Word of God Speak” on Monday, since “I’m finding myself at a loss for words.” So I decided to read the...

Music Monday Extra – Word of God Speak

Last night we had our kick-off event for Wordstrong at church. The Wordstrong reading schedule started on Ash Wednesday, but Sunday evening was a better night for a big gathering. We sang some great songs, including one of my favorites called Ancient Words. Our pastor gave a great message...

Worshipping Christ in Music

The Rock and Worship Roadshow in Portland was awesome! And for the most part, very loud! The evening started with a wonderfully intimate session with Jars of Clay. Because we had VIP tickets, we were treated to an acoustic performance and a question & answer...

The Veil Was Torn!

MercyMe is coming to Portland next Sunday, and I am hoping to go, so I’ve been listening to their most recent CD in the car this past week. It’s called The Generous Mr. Lovewell. I’ve written several posts about some of the songs on this...

Faith Brings Joy Even in Pain

There are many things in this world and this life that I do not understand. Today, I don’t understand chronic physical pain. I get the purpose of acute pain, such as the pain you feel when you touch a hot burner on the stove or...

A Crazy World, a Crazy Idea

This morning as a drove into the parking lot at work the song “Crazy Enough” by MercyMe was playing in my car, and the flags in front of our building were still flying at half mast because of the Saturday shooting in Arizona. Since I...

Music Monday Extra – Beautiful

I already posted my article for Music Monday, but then on my way home I was listening to MercyMe. When the song “Beautiful” came on, I felt this prompting from the Holy Spirit to post it as a Music Monday Extra. This is for all...
