Over lunch today I decided to watch a little preseason baseball. The team I cheer for (the twins) were playing against the team I cheer against (the yankees) and Denard Span steps up as the first batter of the game. A few pitches into his at bat he fouls a pitch off and its a [ READ MORE ]
There are more opinions on Revelation than total words. Sometimes when I read it I try to figure out what it could be saying to us today. For example 8:8 – “The second angel sounded his trumpet, and something like a huge mountain, all ablaze, was thrown into the sea.” Could that be a meteor? Or recently [ READ MORE ]
I love that every Sunday is different. Here are some thoughts from my day. I got the BVC really early and blasted some music. Key verse for Caisson was Hebrews 2.1 and the word was humility. Had a quick meeting with the Spiritual Leaders. They are amazing! WE WENT ALL OUT FOR THE MARCH OF PALM SUNDAY Thanks goes out [ READ MORE ]

Today we get to sink into the two shortest books of the New Testament. I know for me the backdrop of these books of the Bible is vague at best. At first glance it seems that they are shorter repeats of 1 John. Though that is there they also are addressing this idea of “Christmonger” [ READ MORE ]
I have never been a fan of business cards. Have you ever run into that guy who whips his business card out faster then you can introduce yourself. You look down and instead of a handshake you have a papercut from them sliding you their card. I started throwing a few in my wallet for those [ READ MORE ]
Thoughts from today’s scripture. Paul was crystal clear on his purpose and I’m not all that sure ours should be different, “to further the faith.” The significance of elders is unchanged I believe. Notice that they weren’t put in place right away. Paul usually left. Why? Could it be so that people could be observed for a [ READ MORE ]
