Guest Post on Monday Morning Review
Posted by Peter in Blogging, Christianity on May 9, 2011
I once again had the privilege of posting our pastor’s Monday Morning Review this week while he is on vacation. It’s a little tribute to Rahab and other mothers.
If you have a few minutes, check it out and give his blog a nice little traffic boost.

Top 10 Reasons People Go To Church
Posted by Peter in Christianity, Humor on December 21, 2010
I am a part of a men’s group that meets weekly. We sort of take turns bringing a short message each week. A good friend, Doug Crum, who is a Pastor at 4th & Elm Church of Christ in Sweetwater, TX, brought this last week. It’s funny and worth your time. Enjoy!
Top 10 Reasons People Go to Church
10. Free babysitting!
9. Everybody’s doing it.
8. Old habits are hard to break.
7. There’s nothing good on Sunday morning TV.
6. Four words: all you can eat (between prayer breakfast, Pot luck dinners & ice cream suppers, going to church is like living on a cruise ship).
5. To show off my new outfit.
4. I want to be a good person.
3. To catch up on the latest gossip.
2. I don’t want to go to hell.
1. God has showered his creation with His unconditional love and I want to respond to that gift by praising Him, learning more about Him, and by surrounding myself with people who will encourage one another in our walk with Him.
The Feasts of the Lord Redux
Posted by Peter in Bible, Christianity, God, Israel, Jesus, Old Testament on November 8, 2010
I recently taught a discipleship training class at our church entitled The Feasts of the Lord: Jesus Fulfills the Feasts. It was a three week (1x wk.) course.
I know I was blessed by and learned more from the study, preparation and teaching than anyone listening. Even so, I have an opportunity for an encore at the Sweetwater Aglow November meeting. It will be November 13, 10am-3pm at the Holiday Inn Express in Sweetwater. Lunch will be provided free of charge, and everyone is invited to attend. I hope to see you there.
One of these days, I will get around to posting about this.
Thought for the Day on Knowing God
If you really want to get to know God, you have to be willing to get to know a God completely different from the God you think you know.

Brazil Mission Trip Update
Posted by Peter in Christianity on September 22, 2010
Last year, about this time, I posted information about a mission trip to Brazil my wife was planning on taking in December (of 2009). As it happened, the trip was overbooked and the team from our church got bumped, so now they leave tomorrow.
Thank you to everyone who supported this expedition through prayer, financial contributions or otherwise. Please continue to pray over the next two weeks for the ministry team, for the Brazilians being ministered to, and for those of us left behind (the longest The Libster and I have had to go without momma is four days, so two weeks will be a stretch).
The Feasts of the Lord
Posted by Peter in Bible, God, Israel, Jesus, New Testament, Old Testament on September 9, 2010
This is one I have been looking forward to for a while, but now that it’s here, I’m a little nervous.
For the next three (3) Sunday nights I will be teaching a series at our church entitled The Feasts of the Lord: Jesus Fulfills the Feasts. It’s a topic that is absolutely fascinating, and I hope I am able to do it a little justice.
I believe the series will be recorded, and, if so, I will try to post the audio here. At the very least, I will try to post summaries each week.
I hope it goes well. Pray for me.
And if any of you happen to be in the Sweetwater, TX area any of the next three (3) Sundays, feel free to drop in.
