In the Year…2020

Hmmm… I would like to think that means perfect vision.  Clear vision, 3-D vision.  However, the eye seems to continually need help, naturally speaking of course. Biblically we have ‘eyes of understanding’ or spiritual eyes that are often blinded by the ‘god of this world’ through deception.  It truly takes the spiritual eye to stay the course of our journey as Christians.…

Upon Further Review…

You guessed it! It’s finally here! Football season.  Ah yes. Go Pack, Go! So is Praise Fellowship Church’s 35th year celebration.  A milestone to say the least. Our Fall Schedule begins this Sunday @ 9 am. Sunday school classes for all ages… (Small bible study classes provide interaction). Worship @ 10:15! We will Praise the Lord! As the football season unfolds, we will…

Happy Fourth of July…Hello Summer!

June 21st marked the first day of summer and sure enough…it is here! Whoa, temps near 90 and humidity the same. Someone, hand me a towel. I am NOT complaining; this is Wisconsin. Pastor Cathy and I are enjoying the series, Renewing Our Minds and are working diligently daily to do so. The statement, Miracles come in cans…has me smiling as well as pondering the thought.…

Wait!

    Not my favorite word. Yet very crucial in possessing that which is valuable in life. You’ve heard it said, “good things come to those who wait.” Counter it with, “he who hesitates…”… Somewhat of a conundrum wouldn’t you say?   Of course it is, unless life has taught and we have learned its lessons. My greatest ally in waiting for something I desperately want…

Wanna Fight?

As a kid on the school playground, the question came up more than once.  Immediately a decision had to be made.  I mean, the challenge demanded a response.  In a flash, the size, the person, the enemy, and the issue had to be assessed.  Is there a cause?  Am I, or someone I care about being bullied, intimidated or hurting?  Is this worth fighting for? Big brothers fight…

Did You…

…have a family fun filled summer? I sure hope so, and as usual, the days of summer fall faster than the autumn leaves. Speaking of change, our church schedule changes: Beginning the first Sunday after Labor Day  – Sunday, September 9th:      Worship Service is at 10:15 am      Sunday School for all ages at 9:00 am This fall’s start-up marks a milestone!  On Sunday…

I am not …

…..settling for less this Christmas! The usual desire for more things on a “wish list” I was hoping to fulfill leaves me disappointed or disillusioned, and the deepest meaning of “Christmas” escaping me. I want more. The truths of Christmas are deep but not beyond grasp. Matthew and Luke give us the facts: Joseph, Mary, Bethlehem’s manger, a baby, angels,…

Did You Know?

As I was preparing for Easter Sunday’s message, I read a commentator’s statement on the empty tomb. He stated Christian’s lost the tomb of Jesus (citing the place where Christians visit in the Holy Land is probably not the original). The same could be said for many shrines, churches, and synagogues that the ancient world has hid over time. By the second century, the tomb…

It is a good thing…….

…….. to give thanks!That is God’s Word creating a pathway in and out of everyday life. Sarah Young writes, “thankfulness takes the sting out of adversity.” Isn’t it interesting the Lord didn’t lift that discipline out of our lives because the days are difficult? No…His goodness shows up even brighter on dark days! Ms. Young…
