Message In A…Manger?
The message is in the details! This series began with a reminder of the Trivial Pursuit game. And we’ve begun to unpack the huge lessons in what may seem like the trivial details of Scripture. Another example I won’t deal with here is the shortest verse in the Bible....

Christmas Manger: Trivial Pursuit – NOT What You Think!
The manger of Christmas... It's an awesome revelation. But like many things in Scripture, we have heard it and read it until we no longer have a sense of awe much less any curiosity. That’s unfortunate. And this series of posts is my attempt to give you two Christmas...

Definitions Matter!
Life's Lessons Were Really Taught in Grade School Church would be much more effective and fun if we applied childhood disciplines! What are those? It is apparent very few students encounter the subject of spelling. But I recall writing those spelling lesson words over...

Buckets, Boulders, & Bunches: A Lesson
I love an object lesson! They are all around us. Jesus used them frequently. I can imagine Him walking beside a field when He said, The field is white unto harvest... He used fig trees to teach about seasons and bearing fruit. In a garden He told His disciples, I am...

Definitions Determine Destiny
Definitions Determine Destiny: Focusing Life & Short-Term Missions The title is true for YOU, your family, the Church, and short-term missions. How can all those things possibly be related? Significance and success in any of these arenas will be determined by...

What’s Your Calling? – Stan Bramlett
Calling has been the subject of more than one conversation with myself! Others have questioned themselves about the same subject. And I’m rethinking that question. I’ve been reading about Generation “Y” people (Generation Y Protagonists and Special Yuppies, or...
