Walking With the Spirit So We Aren’t Tempted By the Flesh – The Mark of the Beast
About 15 years ago, one of our sweet customers always greeted us the same way. We would say, “Good morning, Art. How are you today?” He would often answer by saying, “I’m walking with the Spirit, so I’m not tempted by the flesh.” We loved that response. We still quote it to this day. Those…

Life Review
Have you ever heard someone say they died and had an experience and then came back? They are called NDE’s or Near-Death Experiencers. A lot of them say that while they are on the other side, they experience something called a “life review.” During this review of their lives, they get to see some of…

What Do You See
Perspective 1: Why can’t you see it? Why can’t you see what they’re doing to us and our country? Perspective 2: What are you talking about? They’re not doing anything. You’re just a conspiracy theorist. Perspective 1: I don’t understand. Can’t you see that they are saying one thing, but doing another? They’re lying to…

What’s Coming In 2025: Did You Feel The Earthquake?
Is something bad coming this year? I’m sure you’ve heard some rumors too. Earthquakes, World War III, or maybe another viral virus is own it’s way. I’m old enough to remember when the world was going to collapse in the year 2000 (Y2K). I was scared to go to work that week. I was working…

The Hero’s Journey
Is God punishing us? Are we weak, insignificant and powerless? Maybe you want to do the right thing. You want to be patient and kind. You want to love others; only to find yourself pushing others away to keep from being hurt again. You want to understand — why? Why can’t people just live and…

Losing Someone or Something
I’m sorry if you’ve just lost something – like a job, or worse. Maybe you’ve recently lost someone. We lose people for various reasons. It could be through irreconcilable differences, distance, or even death. The pain of losing someone or something can feel excruciating. Loss is something we all must face in this lifetime —…

No God, No Love
Have you seen Gavin Newsom’s interviews? Notice the way he shifts blame for the recent fires; the way he doesn’t seem to care at all about the people he serves in California. He seems proud when he speaks of the “Marshall Plan” to rebuild LA 2.0. He seems to have no compassion for human beings…

Saturday’s Warriors
I was taught as a teen that my peers and I would be warriors (Saturday’s Warriors) in the last days. I remember adding up the years to see how old I would be. I was taught even though we wouldn’t know the day or the hour; it would most likely be sometime between 2020 and…

Give Me Your Shame
I’ve always considered myself as a pretty good person. I’ve learned most people feel this way, because when you see people interviewed after being caught stealing or even murdering someone, most of them will say the same thing, “…but, I’m a good person.” Those are pretty extreme examples, but we don’t have to be thieves…

Is That Right?
One of my favorite songs is, Grandpa, by The Judds, which was released in 1986. One of the lines in the song says: Grandpa, tell me ’bout the good ole days…when the line between right and wrong, didn’t seem so hazy. Today the line between right and wrong is not only hazy, but, right is…
