A little help from my friends.

A little help from my friends.

Our HouseI am not sure how much you have followed our lives here in Min-Arctica. I have the mini-summary and wrap up:

A few years ago we moved to Minnesota so that I could come work for a new company and go back to school with the intent of going into full time ministry work. After two years we hit the milestone that triggered a search for a permanent home. Up to that point we had planned to rent a house so we could figure out where we would live given all the variables. Those were location … Click to Continue

Serving a LGBTQ community

*Edited on 3/16/2017 + updated scriptural references. *

I am probably going to ruffle some feathers today…

Which, on one hand, is okay by me since I am not here to make YOU happy and agree with you. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE you. I would hate for you to go away mad. However, it is my calling to make you THINK and RESPOND within the context of living life in fellowship (or community) with integrity as followers of Jesus.

If we, as followers of Christ, are truly called to be leaders with integrity, I implore you! Do not simply choose to be offended and shut-off your brain. Do not choose to chicken out and ignore this post without challenging yourself and your … Click to Continue

God Loved Barrabas. Why not you?

Jesus is sufficient…  He is enough.

… “Jesus knew the Father would have to treat Jesus like Barabbas so he could treat Barabbas like Jesus” …

What are you holding onto today?  Give it to Jesus…

May Jesus have His way with your day

Site Clean-Up

I did a little site maintenance today. We went from 780+ users to just over 80.

The reason for that is because those subscriber accounts were stale. They had not logged in in over 60 days and there was no posted activity at all. I now have a tool that will do that on a schedule.

This effort was taken to improve the experience of active readers. Since I block all spam posts and comments now have to be approved (due to spam abuse) I had noticed a pattern of new subscribers that log in, then realize they can’t spam. After the first login I never see them again. Those accounts are now cleaned up automatically as well.

If I deleted your account and you WANT that account, please re-register. I recommend you Log In and comment every so often to avoid getting hit by the Clean-Up monster.

Thanks for reading.

May God Bless your week.

May Jesus have His way with your day
