Politics & a Passion for the Gospel?
Tonight, as we continued our study of Jonah, we found ourselves in chapter 3. As we were studying verses 4-9, we brought up an interesting point. 4 Jonah began to go into the city, going a day's journey. And he called out, “Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown!” 5 And the people of Nineveh believed God. They called ...more»
Hope you can believe in
Tomorrow Barack Obama will be inaugurated as the 44th President of the United States of America. It will prove to be an historic day, no doubt, as the first ever African-American assumes the position of Commander in Chief for our country. What has made Obama so appealing to so many, both within the evangelical community and without, is his consistent ...more»
Litmus test?
Presidential politics is a fascinating topic, in my mind anyway. I've always been fascinated by the political machine that exists in America. For a while, prior to being called into ministry, I had big plans about college, law school and a career in politics. Thankfully those were shortlived as God called me into the ministry.

One of the men in the IMB that I highly admire is Dr. Rodney Hammer. I first met Rodney while in training to go overseas with ...more»
Going to Indy
Well, exactly one week from today my lovely wife Tracy and I will jump in our minivan (I know, I'm getting old) and make the 8 hour drive to Indianapolis, Indiana. Normally I prefer to fly, and it's become cheaper than paying mileage, but since we are leaving after the convention to head to Wilmington, NC for my brother's wedding, ...more»
Presidential Announcements
Sometime ago I wrote concerning my thoughts about the upcoming SBC Presidential race. Yesterday it was announced that Dr. Avery Willis' name will be placed into nomination for SBC President. It was also announced that Dr. Johnny Hunt will be announced as well. I don't have time to write much at this point, and I will write more at a ...more»
