The church extolls Christian Brothers and sisters to fellowship with each other in encouragement and support. In order to build up each other in faith and the Christian Life.
We are to speak of Jesus to those not of the faith, but if it falls...

Morning mental ramblings.

Posted 06-26-2018 at 08:25 AM by Sonic_Spork

I've been giving a lot of thought lately to big-picture social & economic concepts. Ideas that sort of reach their little tendrils into everything, but I'm working to keep a philosophical distance and not get lost in the weeds.

Ten Power Exhortations - June 25, 2018

Daily Meditations And Affirmations - 198

Acts 26:16 - "But rise and stand on your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of the things which you have seen and of the things which I will yet reveal to you."


Paul knew that King Agrippa's dad (King Agrippa I) was responsible at that time for the execution of James, one of the 12 disciples. Yet Paul made sure the truth was on trial, rather than His personal safety or self-esteem.
