Guys – it’s incredibly important that you read, out loud to your kids. I have six kids from age five to twenty – four girls and two boys and my wife and I developed reading as a family tradition almost by accident. I say “almost” because we both had the desire that our children would read well and enjoy good literature, but didn’t know at the time the HUGE benefits that have been proven out when fathers read to...

Paul listed nine godly virtues that constitute the fruit of God’s Spirit—the inward and outward effect of having the gift of the Holy Spirit dwelling within us. They are “love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control”(Galatians 5:22-23) The spiritual fruit of goodness enables man to do good and to be good—good in the truest sense of the word. Goodness, after all, is the essence of God’s nature. We all are fighting a battle…an internal spiritual war? It’s a... Read more

Suzanne Lederer leads us in connecting with God through Lectio Divina. Soon another Feast came around and Jesus was back in Jerusalem. Near the Sheep Gate in Jerusalem there was a pool, in Hebrew called Bethesda, with five alcoves. Hundreds of sick people—blind, crippled, paralyzed—were in these alcoves. One man had been an invalid there for thirty-eight years. When Jesus saw him stretched out by the pool and knew how long he had been there, he said, “Do you want... Read more

It is, without a doubt, my absolute favorite spot in all of Israel. Which, given my love for the land and its people, is quite a remarkable statement. In this PODCAST, you will hear where it is, and why it is. Here’s a clue: It’s the Apostle Peter’s favorite spot too. John 21 2 Simon Peter, Thomas called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of His disciples were together. 3 Simon Peter said to them, “I am going... Read more

My mom and dad raised me in a very stereotypical 1970’s-80’s nondenominational American Christian home. Now, in the 70’s and early 80’s, it was very common to see evangelical pamphlets and booklets lying around, ready to be handed out to the next non-believer to walk through our door – especially “The Four Spiritual Laws”, written by Campus Crusade for Christ founder Bill Bright. It was an easy to read, simple explanation of these four critical facts: God loves you... Read more

When I hear the word “judge”, I think of a short-circuited party scene. You know, where everyone is dancing and having a good time until the mom comes in, turns off the music and everything stops prematurely. A fun time is ruined and everyone has to go home. That’s how I fell when I’m being judged, when I’m watching someone being judged, or when I’m judging somebody myself. It’s like sitting on a ball of fun and popping it.... Read more

I’m noticing a growing trend – Christian men quietly admitting they do not like going to church. More than half of the committed Christian men I talk to, when asked, will tell me they do not like churchgoing. They come to me after I speak. They admit their dissatisfaction in hushed tones. They love God – but hate going to church. These are not malcontents who’d rather be golfing on Sunday. These are the good guys. Guys who’ve left... Read more

June 10, 2014 By Christian Podcast Central

To purchase the entire Summit Lecture Series, Vol. 1 on DVD, go to: summit.org. We have good historical evidence that Jesus rose from the dead. And the best explanation of the historical data is that Jesus rose from the dead ultimately to verify his claims (1. That He is the only way to God; 2. He is equal to God Himself; 3. He was able to forgive the sins of mankind; 4. He was worthy of receiving worship) So this... Read more

From WTOP.com, an elderly couple was recently kicked out of a Virginia McDonalds for sitting too long. Carl Becker, 87, a World War II veteran, and his wife Barbara Becker, 81, say they both were at the Culpeper McDonald’s on Feb. 21 when they were approached by the manager. “You two are going to have to leave.’ He said ‘Your half hour is up and we need to clean this floor,'” says Barbara Becker.
