I just read an article out of R.C. Sproul’s monthly TableTalk magazine titled, A Reformation Journal. Here, Harry L. Reeder shares his method of “getting insight while being on site”. He expounds upon this by sharing his recent touring of famous sites that hosted the reformation of the years of Calvin, Luther and many others. By no means do I down play his love of further...

As I sit here, contemplating what music to play at our wedding, I’m lost. Lost, in the sense that I am found by the grace of God. Lost in the midst of my hurried thoughts and held in the hands of my Creator. I hope that as I walk ever closer to becoming one with my fiancé.. That all I see is the Cross. That all that is on my heart is the cross and that it is only by His blood that I am...

Enjoying the Risen Christ
I serve a risen Saviour, He’s in the world today; I know that He is living, Whatever men may say; I see His hand of mercy, I hear His voice of cheer, And just the time I need Him He’s always near.
He lives, He lives, Christ Jesus lives today! He walks with me and He talks with me Along life’s narrow way. He lives, He live, salvation to impart! You ask me how I know He lives: He lives...

Mtw 27:23-26
And he said, “Why, what evil has he done?” But they shouted all the more, “Let him be crucified!” So when Pilate saw that he was gaining nothing, but rather that a riot was beginning, he took water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, “I am innocent of this man’s blood; see to it yourselves.” And all the people answered, “His blood be on us and on our children!” Then he...
