But I thought you said "a bus."

She said "let me out of this f#@! room or I'm going to kill myself!" Then she opened the window and jumped. She landed on the grass, picked herself up and started running. She ran to a catholic church, but they wouldn't let her in. She ran to an Anglican church, but they couldn't understand her. They asked her to stay, but she kept on running. She ran to the mall, but she had no money. She asked a stranger to buy her a coffee and he did. He said "What is your name?" She said "Jane." "Why are you running?" he said, " because they won't let me" she said. "They won't let you what?" he said. "They won't let me watch the tv, and my favourite show was on..running with the stars...have you seen it?" she said. "Can't say I have, but you seem to be very upset about this..is there anything else you like to do on a Thursday night?" he said with a wicked grin on his face. "I like to play baseball. Will you watch me play?" she said.

He picked up his computer, and closed it. He took Jane outside and showed her a big parking lot. He picked up a stick from off the ground, scrumpled up an old newspaper and threw it at her. Just then the police showed up. "We are looking for Jane Crumpet, she is thirteen years old and likes to play baseball, are you her?" the police said. " Why yes, that is me. My parents a bused me."

"I thought you said a bus."

On Christian Marriage. (Short)

On Christian Marriage. (Short) The modern co-habitation crisis has produced a lot of single moms and dads, and has fractured "family units" allowing other family members and relatives to take a bigger role in these "Separated families." There isn't a "one cause" why families have separated or divorced, it is a complicated issue, sometimes resulting in very hard emotions for Society to process. Things like the "millennial sexual revolution" have contributed to the widespread "non-committal" attitude, which in turn has given the traditional marriage the "black eye" it currently has and has turned many Christian men away from seeking a life partner. The more society devalues "traditional marriage" the more co-habitation you will see in all the other generations as well as the Millennials. This is Mike.

Why Christians must show Mutual Concern for One another.

  Look and see, there is no one at my right hand; no one is concerned for me. I have no refuge; no one cares for my life. Psalm 142:4. Christians in the church should have mutual concern for one another, this is what it means to be part of the body of Christ, 1 Corinthians 12:25. It’s takes good pastoral leadership to foster this sense of concern, and where it is missing, individuals who are suffering in the church are overlooked and not supported. Every believer needs support and encouragement, but when this is missing, the church divides and loses it power and testimony. Christians live like the world, and become vulnerable to Satan’s attacks when nobody is supporting them outside the church. I used to belong to an evangelical church which had great leadership, and something called small groups. This church felt like a family and I had people who shared my Christian walk with me when I was not in the church building. I have been attending a different denomination that doesn’t hav...

The Biblical Meaning of “Life in the Spirit.”

  “Life in the Spirit” is an example that the Apostle Paul gives in the book of Romans starting in chapter 5 and going through to chapter 8. He begins by telling us we are justified by faith (5:1), and have gained access by faith into the grace of God (5:2). We have been delivered from God’s wrath (5:9) and we have been reconciled to God through the death of His Son (5:10). He goes on to explain that through Adam all die (5:12), and that the free Gift of God brings justification and righteousness to the believing sinner (5:15-17).   Through our conversion we are baptized into Christ and into his death, which frees us from the law and makes us dead to sin (6:2-4). He explains that just as Christ was raised from the dead, we are given new life in Christ (6:4). Our old unregenerate self was crucified with Christ so that our body of sin might be done away with (6:5-6). Because we have died to sin, we now submit ourselves to God being that we are now under grace, not the law (6:8-1...
