God’s Protection
“The angel of the Lord encampsaround those who fear him, and delivers them.” Psalm 34:7 After a church meeting a sister from our church prayed that God’s angels would protect us as we travelled back home in the rain. I didn’t even hear this part until my wife later reminded me. Today as we travelled […]

Letters To My Son: The Way of Wisdom
The Way of Wisdom Dear Misael, I have been thinking a lot about what I should write to you about and the words “The Way of Wisdom” kept ringing in my ears and believe or not it was in Hebrew (haderek hokmah) which is found in Proverbs 14:11 “I have taught you in the […]

Shattered Dreams, Faith and Hope
I have written elsewhere that I don’t believe in resolutions. So this post offers some thoughts about the past year and some expectations for the “new” one. I am not strict on the concept of new vs. past year. I don’t see time in this manner, especially when it comes to what God does in our lives. 2010 […]

Letters To My Son: The Myth of Independence
The Myth of Independence Dear Misael, There are many myths that have been passed on without anyone questioning them. One of them is the myth of independence, well, at least this is what it appears to me after examining the evidence. There is this idea among young people your age that independence equals freedom.

A Review of “Jesus Manifesto”
Jesus Manifesto written by Leonard Sweet and Frank Viola is not really a manifesto that Jesus wrote, obviously. The subtitle is “Restoring The Supremacy And Sovereignty of Jesus Christ” which is what the whole book is about. If I could summarize the whole book in a few words it would be that Jesus Christ is (or should be) […]

Letters To My Son: Virtues
What are some virtues that I find very crucial for you at this period of time? The first one is prudence. It is interesting that the word prudence comes from the word foresight. That is what prudence is all about. It is foreseeing how our choices have consequences and making sure our decisions are right. […]
