Rerun: Almighty Slept

Originally posted on January 13, 2009. _____ I’ve been meditating for some time on the great ironies of Christ’s life and death. How amazing it is that the infinite God could experience fatigue, danger, pain, and even death. Yet, Christ, the God-man, experienced all of these and more. The following poem (awaiting a tune, and [...]

Gloria in Excelsis Deo

Glory to God in the highest for the birth of His Son, our Savior! Merry Christmas!

Holy God and Lowly Flesh

Merry Christmas from My Two Cents and ChurchWorksMedia.com. Thanks for reading for another year! Here’s an incarnation meditation for your encouragement: Praise our Savior, Jesus Christ; adore the Father’s only Son. Holy God and lowly flesh in virgin’s womb have joined as one! Equal with eternal God, Christ stooped to dwell on earth with men— [...]

Two Tweets on Jesus and Sinners

Tweeted on 12/19/09: Yancey (summary): “Jesus was the friend of sinners. The modern church has presented itself as the enemy of sinners.” Hard to argue with him. Tweeted on 12/21/09: “Jesus receives and befriends sinners.” In the mouth of the Pharisee, this is an accusation. In the mouth of the Christian, it is adoration.

Christmas Text: Gloria Deo!

This is a text that I’ve come back to now and again for over a year. It’s still a “bachelor,” awaiting a joyful, sprightly, toe-tap-ping tune to sweep it of its feet and complete it. (It’s not good for texts to be alone.) However, I think it’s eligible and won’t be single forever. We shall [...]

Alcohology: The Bible and Wine

I preached a message on alcohol yesterday morning, addressing the issue as thoroughly as I could in a single message and dealing with numerous passages from both Testaments. I dealt with the issue more honestly than I have in the past, figuring that God said what He said on purpose and remembering that my job [...]

Borrowing Brains: Prophet, Priest, and King

Greg Habegger and I finished a new hymn a few months back, but we’ve not been sure about it. Thus, we’ve not published it at www.churchworksmedia.com yet. As we’re thinking on it, I’ve asked the Huron ladies (friends of mine who did such a nice job on His Robes for Mine) to record it so [...]

Borrowing Brains: Wine

No, I’m not asking for your favorite wines. I’m preaching Sunday on a biblical perspective on alcohol, a topical message that is growing out of our exposition of John 2. It’s coming well. However, I’m still interested in helpful resources (preferably online). What messages or articles have you found to be especially helpful in addressing [...]
