“To Obey is Better Than Sacrifice”
December 18, 2020
For about 7 years, while I was on the staff of Campus Crusade for Christ (now CRU), I had the privilege of teaching a 2 credit graduate class on the Life of David at the Institute of Biblical Studies twice, and sometimes three times a year. It was an honor and a thrill. I think … More “To Obey is Better Than Sacrifice”
May Your Eyes be Ever Moist
December 11, 2020
The final song of Side A on Keith Green’s NO COMPROMISE LP is a song titled “My Eyes are Dry”. He seems to be designing a worship service for the family of God. He started with a call to worship and a plea for the congregation with “Soften Your Heart”. Then he moved to pastoral … More May Your Eyes be Ever Moist
The Desperate Honesty of Keith Green
December 7, 2020
Today a friend (thank you Robert) quoted from a Keith Green album (No Compromise), released in 1978, just four years before Keith died in a plane crash at the age of 28. It is an album with legs. Now 42 years old, with songs that are even older, it still holds up. It still seems … More The Desperate Honesty of Keith Green
Not What My Hands Have Done
November 30, 2020
This is an experiment. I have posted video’s of others but very rarely (I think one) of myself. Maybe this will be a flop. But if it is, at least for those who see this, the exposure they gain from the words of this 160 year old hymn will still be an encouragement to appreciate … More Not What My Hands Have Done
On the Importance of Hymns and Singing

I know this has happened to you too. You went to Youtube and saw a video, maybe it was a music video, or a teaching video, or a movie short, or a full length movie. After the movie, or teaching, or song, something else popped up in the queue and before you knew it, you … More On the Importance of Hymns and Singing
The Wonder of God’s Creation
March 18, 2019
That bubble of water over the land mass of the USA is all the water there is on planet earth. “We think of Earth as the water planet. But what if you [took] … all of the water on Earth and form[ed] it into a sphere, or bubble? How big would the bubble be? The … More The Wonder of God’s Creation
Celebrating the Joy of Christ in the Life of the Church
January 5, 2019
The video is from an Anglican Church in Lisburn, Ireland. It celebrates the joy of community in the life of the church to the tune of Rend Collective’s MY LIGHTHOUSE. Enjoy. Rejoice. Let the contagion spread. And here is a link to the article that discusses why this has gone viral. What do you think? … More Celebrating the Joy of Christ in the Life of the Church
Christmas, Let’s Sing!
December 24, 2018
It is one of my favorite Christmas hymns. A carol of joy, Hark the Herrald Angels Sing, was not always in the form or sound that we enjoy it today. The youtube version below has a driving bass beat and an additional chorus inserted. It comes from Paul Baloche’s Christmas album and it captures well … More Christmas, Let’s Sing!
Nourishing Cancer of the Soul
December 16, 2015
Thursday is for Spiritual Formation This was the first of a three part series from two years ago. The longer I am in ministry, the more I look at the horrible things that people say about other people on Facebook and other social media, the more I think that Matt Mitchell’s book on Gossip ought … More Nourishing Cancer of the Soul
