“Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to” (Like 13:24). Many will try, but few will make it. The price of being saved is more than many will want to bear. We tend to think that all it takesContinue reading “What Will You Give Up?”

Refuge
The Bible uses the word “Refuge” eighty-eight times, with over half coming from the book of Psalms. A refuge is defined as “a condition of being safe or sheltered from pursuit, danger, or trouble” (Oxford Dictionary). With this definition, it’s no wonder Psalms account for over half of the word’s usage. For most of hisContinue reading “Refuge”
Compare Yourself
We are always told that we should never compare ourselves to others; the only person we should compare ourselves to is the person we were yesterday. I do believe in the latter statement. However, there is someone we should constantly be comparing ourselves to. We are not comparing who is better looking or who isContinue reading “Compare Yourself”
You Were Warned
Many Christian sects like to state that Jesus was a pacifist. He taught us to love others and sacrifice oneself for our friends. He turned the other cheek to the Roman soldiers who beat and abused him. He stayed silent when accused by the Jewish leaders. He told Peter to put away his sword whenContinue reading “You Were Warned”
Do Not Love

What’s Wrong With Society?
Videos are circulating on the internet of people promoting demoralizing and destructive ideologies.

Everything that was once abhorrent in society seemsContinue reading “What’s Wrong With Society?”

What’s Your Code?
Different military branches hold to a moral/ethical code, an ethos, or in the case of the Vikings, laws. These codes and laws dictate and determine decision making, actions of the individual, and overall quality of life. Most branches of the military require their cadets to learn and memorize their branch’s code of conduct. What fascinatesContinue reading “What’s Your Code?”
Watch The Company You Keep
“Bad company corrupts good character” (Menander and the Apostle Paul). “Tell me with whom you associate, and I will tell you who you are” (Johann Wolfgang von Goethe). “Some would argue that you’re as successful as the company you keep. Certainly, there is a connection between our friends and who we are” (Simon Sinek). “TheContinue reading “Watch The Company You Keep”
