  • Worship of Jesus isn’t a service we attend, it’s a position we take in the universe.

    The Body of Christ suffers in these times. The suffering isn’t fatal. We aren’t at risk of irreparable harm, because we belong to Jesus. Because of Him, the suffering will be used for our good and for His glory. Still, we are besieged from without and within. Division, attack, disbelief, falling away, conflict, prohibitions from …[ read more ]

And for all who celebrated major life passages with modified or delayed celebrations. The thought of a …[ read more ]

  • #Beyond COVID-19
    Posted on Thursday, April 2nd, 2020 | Filed under Blog | Tagged: beyond COVID19, coronavirus, coronavirus and the church, COVID19, faith in the age of coronavirus, Gideon, pandemic, where is God in this pandemic

    It’s easy to get lost in the crisis of this pandemic. When we’re blindsided by something so horrific, initially, we lose our bearings. It’s as if we’ve been tossed into a cosmic tornado and for a time, we brace against the spin, trying to stop the pressing motion or we clamber up the sides trying …[ read more ]

    Lori, Our Lord never ceases to amaze.. you have succeeded in disturbing this Hobbit! I have been struggling with spiritual apathy and indifference recently and reading your witty, convicting, engaging, infuriating writings has helped me to realize that I am in good company. They have also given me the kick-start I need to get off my laurels! Keep looking up..keep going on for the Lord dear sister-in-Christ!
