Do You Need a Fixer Upper?

Do You Need a Fixer Upper? One of my all time favorite reality shows is HGTV’s “Fixer Upper”, not just because I love the hosts and the hands-on builder and interior designers, Chip & Joanna Gaines, a delightful couple with their four young kids, who live their personal lives in a raw, oftentimes hilarious, and…

Forty More Days of Easter

HOLD IT! We’re not done yet! The Easter season (the resurrection of our Lord and His time on earth before ascending to heaven) is still going on. That was 40 days He was “in and out” of places and people’s lives during that time. He was showing up when they least expected Him. Can you…

How About a Life-Changing Walk With Jesus?

I saw bunnies still scampering about yesterday, but these ones weren’t leaving Easter eggs. The Easter baskets have been put back into storage until next year, but the crux of the whole matter of Easter celebrations is still burning in our hearts. We are still in awe of this most essential, absolute reason for our…

They’re Everywhere!

I went to see “Risen” on Good Friday. I highly recommend it. I enjoy seeing faith-based films and anything related to Jesus up on the big screen. It inspires me to visually see what I know from the Bible and I think it’s great for others to have that kind of exposure to the Gospel.…

The Saddest Day

The Saddest Day Holy Saturday, the day between Christ’s crucifixion and His resurrection was considered the saddest day ever. Yesterday I posted that “Good Friday should be called Black Friday” because of the despicable death of our Savior, but in reality, today should be called “Black Saturday”. To His disciples — those who walked with…

Good Friday or Black Friday?

Shouldn’t “Good Friday” be called “Black Friday”? After all, on this day, the most scandalous betrayal of justice in human history took place. Jesus wasn’t guilty of any crime or sin. After the illegal trials, this loving, compassionate, giving, caring, innocent Man was stripped and tied to a post. He was whipped and beatened —…

Today is the Ultimate #Throwback Thursday

#TBT — Today is the ultimate #throwbackthursday. This photo is one of the world’s most famous paintings. It is the 15th Century mural painting by Leonardo da Vinci. The painting represents the scene of the Last Supper of Jesus Christ and His Twelve Disciples. You can see how aghast they were at Jesus’ announcement that…

Temple Tuesday Was Just That

Tuesday of Holy Week could be called “Temple Tuesday,” because in Matthew 21 we read how Jesus spent this day of Holy Week at the temple — teaching and using parables to make his points. He was constantly confronted by religious leaders. They challenged his authority to teach the people, and lamblasted him with unreasonable…

And They Lived Happily Ever After

I don’t like movies that leave you hanging, or have a disappointing ending. I LOVE the happy ending ones! I’m quite sure that the movie my Life Group and I are going to see tonight will have a happy, encouraging and uplifting ending. We’re going to see “Miracles From Heaven”. I’ll give you a movie…
