(On Sunday we watched the video “How Great is Our God” at church; I was unexpectedly given the opportunity to share some some previous thoughts on why we should be more discerning about the claims made in that video concerning laminin, a particular molecule. I wrote it 2 years ago on another blog – so [...]

Last week I had the privilege of leading a short study with some of the folks that serve in a number of worship ministries at HBC. We spent our time looking at our definitions of the term “worship”. Then we examined the scriptures to see how the Bible discusses worship, and what we can learn [...]

I’ve started listening to a free MP3 series called “The God Who Is There”:
On February 20-21 and 27-28, 2009, Don Carson presented a 14-part seminar entitled “The God Who Is There” at Bethlehem Baptist Church’s North Campus in Minneapolis. The series is geared toward “seekers” and articulates Christianity in a way [...]

In our consumerist, results-driven world, it’s easy for Christians to fall into the same mindset as the world regarding success in ministry. Bulging at the seams, super-slick everything, entertaining music, drama, inspiring speakers.

Christians often say they are “saved.” By this they define their “christianness.”
I remember the Revival Hymn video.
At one point Leonard Ravenhill asks:”If I was to ask you tonight if you were saved? Do you say, ‘Yes, I am saved.’ When? ‘Oh so and so preached, I got baptised and…’ Are you saved? What are you saved [...]

Our pastor preached this on Sunday. In the book of Acts 2:22-23, the apostle Peter explains that both God and man were responsible for Jesus’s death on the cross. That’s God’s sovereignty, juxtaposed with human freedom. It just blows your mind, and in a good way.
“Now when they heard this they were cut to the heart, [...]
