If your Pastor’s door could speak
At first glance, it’s a door like any other. There’s a small window, maybe even a few steps before it, a doorbell or a knocker, the aesthetics don’t really matter. Regardless of what it looks like, there’s a door. Before it stands a person with their struggles, their grief, their loss and their pain andContinue reading “If your Pastor’s door could speak”
Teaching Leviticus
Leviticus, for some, is a difficult book. I’ve heard it described, I think by Tim Challies, as the book where Bible reading plans go to die. People start the year with enthusiasm and the desire to read the Bible in a year. Starting at Genesis things go well until Leviticus where it gets complicated.

The thing that I find fascinating is that there are two sides (extremes, although that word seems a bit, well… extreme), on the one hand there are Christians who don’tContinue reading “You will be hated, just make sure it’s for the right reasons…”
Life with Jesus, what does that look like?
Someone becoming a Christian is a wonderful miracle! God, by His Spirit, has brought someone who was dead in their sins and trespasses to be alive in Christ that is great news! But what next? I’ve often heard people say that when they became Christians they were given a Bible and just told to followContinue reading “Life with Jesus, what does that look like?”
