Open Eyes and the Voice of God
A few months back, I walked a nearby trail that went through forests, along meadows, and near creeks. Using my good camera, I planned to take pictures along the walk. This isn’t a regular activity for me, since my serious … Continue reading
DVDs for Use in Worship
In a previous post, I described the idea of a church’s AV system being the “instrument” that the AV technician plays for the glory of God during the worship service. Here’s another idea of something technical that can be thought … Continue reading

Learning to Hear
Learning to hear and obey the Voice of God is one of the most important parts of the Christian life. In a sense, it is the process of discipleship, of learning to actively follow Him. The call of Samuel outlines … Continue reading
Reflections of Acts: A List
In an earlier post, I described how it seemed that the church today is operating very differently than the church in Acts, even opposite in many ways. In future posts I plan on detailing these observations, but here is a … Continue reading
