I find my self lately coping with the "gifts" that God offers and the supernatural aspects. I alluded to one on my blog recently about a minister that wanted to pray for my wife where I knew what he was before he told me ( a pastor).

Another instance was with a friend in California that was a NASCAR sports writer a while back. We had just finished talking about her hobby of Equestrian riding. I had warned her to be carefull with the horse she was going to ride. Unfortunately she wasn't. She ended up getting thrown and injured.

Another incident with a neighbor from another street who had a daughter with serious heart problems and had fluid building up on her lungs. The Drs. were saying she may not pull through as there was nothing else they could do. I prayed for her daughter not really thinking it would help and kept in touch all the while praying for her recovery.

Now she is doing better. The Drs. were astounded. They had given up on her. Now all I have to do is win the mother and daughter over to Christ.

There are other instances I could list but am faced with time constraints. To say the least, is this what the "gifts" and the super natural is all about? Certainly new territory for me and a bit scary.

The one thing I have realized is through faith in God, all things are possible. Just let Him lead you.

Mad Libs: An Unforgettable Church Service

Hopefully you have heard of Mad Libs (R) ! They are stories that you blindly fill in the blanks for articles of grammar and then read the completed story. Since I was a kid, these have always been a hoot. I decided to make up my own. Just fill in the blanks next time you are at small group and then read it back. It is sure to shake up a few religious spirits. An Unforgettable Church Service We arrived at _________ ( time of day ) at the Church of the Holy _________ ( noun ).

God is Great, Beer is Good, and People are Crazy

There was a discussion on Facebook today about how some people think Christians are "whack jobs." Regardless, God is still great. I don't really know much about beer. I haven't had one in just about 30 years. There are a lot of folks that consider themselves to be Christian. Some because they do good, and others because they have faith in God or are born again-- and others because they grew up in a Christian denomination. Far be it from me to decide who is in, and who is out. Some say we'll be surprised at who is going to be there, and others say who think they are in will be surprised when they are rejected at the Pearly Gates. Hmmm... But let's say you are a real Christian who is feeling passionate about doing something for God. You know something beyond throwing a few bucks in the offering plate and trying to be a good person. The church calls it service or ministry, which could include such things as: reading scriptures on Sunday morning, planning a harves...

5 1/2 The Home Group Experience

For years I have attended small groups, or home fellowships as they are sometimes called. They are an interesting blend of intimacy, arm chair theology and the real Jesus. Here is my take on the anatomy of a home or small group meeting -1 Worship: This is the time when we tell the Lord how much we love him in song. We praise him as the wight of the world lifts off our shoulders and we come into the presence of Almighty God. Err - get something to drink, take a large handful of chocolate covered pretzels because we skipped dinner, and make a plan for the soft couch instead of the miniature folding chairs from kids church. -2 Unofficial Potty Break: On the 15th chorus of I Could Sing of Your Love Forever (how come no one dances to that song?) it's a good time to beat the rush. Beware, once someone gets up, it is a sign for others to make their moves for the coffee pot, the peanut dish and the brownies. It is a li...
