Hot, buttered sourdough bread, buttery garlic bread, and crunchy, French baguettes with a generous pat of delicious butter will be served at the Marriage Feast of the Lamb for sure. I can live without pie. I can do without desserts in general (except lemon tart and crème […] http://faithgateway.com/daniel-plan-bible-study/ 2013-12-08T06:00:03-05:00 Many of us are disciplined when it comes to spiritual practices like reading our Bible or going to church, but we may not have that same discipline when it comes to caring for our physical health. Others are careful about eating habits, but ignore caring for the soul.

Oh, maybe you're not in the pigpen yet. Well, don't wait until you hit the wall at the end of a dead-end street. And even if you have, head home. You will find a Father running to meet you and to clean you up and hug you. http://internetevangelismday.com/blog/archives/5633 2011-09-15T14:24:18-05:00 Outspoken: Conversations on Church Communication is a new book that draws on the wisdom of more than 60 church communication pros.

I think it all started when I was a teen. Lovely summer afternoons were spent on my bed with a couple fiction books and a two-pound bag of Wildberry Skittles . . . http://gospel.com/blog/index.php/2010/06/24/should-christians-buy-health-insurance/ 2010-07-07T09:04:25-05:00 Is health insurance (or any insurance for that matter) a Biblical concept? What about alternate approaches, like "sharing" programs? Would you ever drop your health insurance and participate in a sharing program? http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-mission/together-on-the-outside-broken-on-the-inside-6109 2010-06-10T11:40:38-05:00 That saving, that spiritual rescue from certain death, did not come cheap. It cost God the life of His Son. It took the sacrifice of the only perfect life there ever was to absorb God's punishment for all your sin. And it took His resurrection from the dead to open the way for you to live with God forever in heaven; forgiven, clean, and one of His kids forever. http://gospel.com/blog/index.php/2009/11/11/mental-illness-and-the-church/ 2009-11-11T16:48:38-05:00 The church still struggles to deal with depression, bipolar disorder, and other instances of mental illness. How can the church help those suffering from mental illness? http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-personal-power/a-very-expensive-house-5925 2009-09-25T09:52:50-05:00 In a sense, you drag God into everything you do with your body. It's not your body to do what you please with, to drink what you want, eat what you want, watch what you want, listen to what you want. You don't eat what you want, do what feels good with it, put poison into it, and use it for things God hates.

And now you've invited Him to move into this house He paid for with His life. Treat your body like what it really is. It's the property of God!
