As we continue our look at the Holy Spirit as He moves among us “Like The Wind” there are numerous things that I want you to know and wrestle with. One of the resources I have found helpful are articles written by various Christian teachers and pastors. Below you will find one by Alistair Begg (I wish I had his accent) that…

It is in the nature of men to HUDDLE up and call a play, and then together, execute that plan as best as possible. That describes our vision for ministry to and for men in and through Quest. One part of the HUDDLE is to establish a foundational understanding of what manhood looks and acts like. We live in a culture where…
“Offering a cup of cold water to people who are thirsty” (Matthew 10)…..that is how I see our partnership with the ministry of WISH (West Indies Self Help) in the poverty stricken nation of Haiti. For several years now, we have been partnering with that fifty year old mission that provides, not only essential needs, but an incredible variety of services to…
It is both a ridiculous and an incredible thought that Jesus rose from the dead… resurrected on the third day after having died from an excruciating torture and execution. I assume you are like me in that you have not ever seen someone resurrect from death three days after dying. I have read about people being resuscitated after apparently dying, but never…
Let me list a bucket full of things that you might consider when thinking through the historicity of Jesus’ resurrection… because without the resurrection Christianity has no legs to stand on. In fact, the apostle Paul told us that if what we believe is not actually true we should be the most pitied and despised people on earth for having propagated a…
I don’t think it is an overstatement to say that the resurrection of Jesus stands as the most important event in all of human history. I know that is huge statement, and it may seem very “Christian-syntric”. However, as we look at the world and all of its complications and sophistications, with all of its tensions and conflicts, and with all of…
A religious exercise or a time for transforming and preparing your heart? Yesterday, much of the Christian world began a season that is referred to as Lent. It is the 40 days that precede Easter Sunday (not counting Sundays during that period) and are purposed to encourage Christians to prepare their hearts for the celebration of Christ’s resurrection. The word, Lent, is…
May I jot a note for today concerning the tragedy that unfolded yesterday in Florida. Once again, our nation has been racked by the senseless violence of a lone gunman in one of our schools. The heartache is indescribable. The pain, grief and loss for that community is immense. Once again, and without apology, our thoughts and prayers go out to the…
Prayer is a meaningful dialogue with a God who is there, about things we cannot control, but over which, He is sovereign… a sovereignty that is undisputed in His compassion, as well as His authority. In the closing thoughts of the first letter the apostle Paul wrote to the Christians in Thessalonica, we find two of the shortest verses in the entire…
It is all a matter of PERSPECTIVE… how you see the situation always determines how you behave in it. Everyday we move in one direction or another determined by how we perceive the situation and the surrounding circumstances. Late last night (a cold and rainy night here is St. Louis), I was driving on a semi-rural road thinking that it was dry…
