I just started reading a really great book and I think I’m going to share some nuggets with you guys from time to time. The book is “Love & Respect”, by Christian pastor Dr. Emerson Eggerichs. He’s been a pastor and marriage counselor for a number of years and he’s part of the Focus on […]
A Word of Joy to Keep You Through the Week
Here’s an encouraging word you can tape on your dashboard or fridge door along with some matching music from Douglas Miller for your iPod.
Psalms 118:24
This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Play the clip and sing along with the scrolling lyrics widget.
Unspeakable Joy
Better Days
I was thinking about my grandmother the other day and this song came to mind. Now, normally when I share a music clip on a Sunday it’s a gospel song but this one hearkens to family and heritage and for me part of that is the church tradition so I include the following song using […]
No Exemptions, No Excuses
This was the title of the sermon from Pastor James Meeks of Salem Baptist Church of Chicago a few Sundays ago. For those of you who are regular members of a church you know that sometimes your pastor/bishop/elder has to preach directly to their parishoners to help them get back on track. This could be […]
My Day of Worship Aboard the Ship
The fam is continuing our visiting tour of local churches. Yesterday we attended Fellowship Missionary Baptist Church - or “The Ship” as it is affectionately known by the members - pastored by Rev. Charles Jenkins. He is a young animated preacher and he did a really good job illustrating the Bible for everyday life application.
His […]
True Confessions That Matter from Lenny Kravitz
Hat tip to facebook friend and fellow blogger La Shawn Barber for this link on Lenny Kravitz’s mature stand on his lifestyle and moral standards.
Lenny has been celibate since 2005 and says he’s not pulling his penis out of his pants for any woman again until he finds the one he marries. Let’s hear it […]
More About Those Online and Offline Laid Off Camps
Have you been following the news about various groups around the country hosting laid off or out of work camps? These are get togethers for people who have lost their jobs and are trying to get back into the job market. One of my LinkedIn groups, Out of Work Chicago, is mentioned in this Wall […]
The Submissive Wife…and the Loving Husband
I love dealing with the subject of the submissive wife because it’s such a hotly contested subject. Unfortunately it is so pitifully misunderstood and misinterpreted that it’s almost comical. And it would be just that if not for the impact the ignorance of the subject has on real people and real families.
You can tell people […]
No Tweeting Or Texting In Church Please
Has your pastor had to lecture the congregation about the inappropriate use of technology in church recently? I think I already know the answer to this one. Although technology has leapt forward, our public manners haven’t necessarily kept the same pace so I think now is as good a time as any to review a […]
Can A Man Really Change?
That was the title of my pastor’s Men’s Day sermon last Sunday. The answer of course is a resounding yes. In Ephesians 4: 22-24 Paul talks about how this change is brought about. We do it with God’s help. It’s not in our power but in His. Amen!
If you get a few minutes before you […]
