February 13, 2010 That name, Jesus
That name, Jesus. There is something about His name that causes a response. You either rejoice or you get offended or uncomfortable. That’s because there’s power in His name. If you are a Christian, you should never be ashamed to call His name. You should never be afraid to speak the truth in His name. [...]

February 8, 2010 Music Monday — "I Can't Give Up" by Lee Williams
Life is full of disappointments. Trust me, I know. But, no matter how many things don’t go my way, I’m determined to keep my hand in God’s hand, as the old folks would say. Hills and mountains will come, but God is faithful to His word. “And God said, ‘Good eyes! I’m sticking with you. [...]

February 1, 2010 Music Monday — "Stand Out" by Tye Tribbett
“Don’t become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You’ll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God [...]

January 30, 2010 Snow day
I love to see snow, although we don’t get to see much of it in the South. When we do get a good bit of snow, the excitement level is pretty high here in North Carolina. The threat of snow sends folks rushing to the store to buy milk and bread. No one seems to [...]

January 25, 2010 Music Monday — "The Best in Me" by Marvin Sapp
Grace and mercy. That’s what Marvin Sapp is singing about on his new song “The Best in Me.” Romans 3:23 says that all of us have sinned and come short of God’s glory. But in the next two verses, Paul tells us how we are justified by God’s grace through Jesus Christ. God did it [...]

January 22, 2010 A life that speaks volumes
“I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; the night is coming when no one can work.” John 9:4 I enjoy listening to Dr. Adrian Rogers‘ preaching on the radio. Of all the times I listened, there was one thing I didn’t know — Dr. Rogers has gone on [...]

January 18, 2010 Music Monday — "Everything to Me" by Fred Hammond
God has given Fred Hammond an amazing gift as a psalmist. His songs inspire reflection, worship and praise. I was listening to this song the other day, and though I’ve heard it hundreds of times, one line just stood out to me. Fred sings, “On the pages of my life You have revealed Your glory.” [...]

January 15, 2010 How long is too long?
About two weeks ago, Wayne and I watched a movie called “Away We Go.” It’s a cute movie starring Maya Rudolph of Saturday Night Live fame as Verona and John Krasinski from The Office as Burt. They play an unmarried couple preparing for the birth of their first child. Throughout the movie, they go on [...]

January 13, 2010 "One Big Happy Family" is feel-good TV
It’s hard to lose weight. It’s hard to break those bad habits that made you gain that weight to start out with. It’s hard to stop eating yummy, bad-for-you food and start making better choices. But that’s just what a North Carolina family with a new TLC show is trying to do. TLC’s “One Big [...]
