It is that time of year. Fall, pumpkins, costumes, and….of course, candy!
I live in the wonderful state of Florida. Fall in Florida means there’s usually a little less humidity, an occasional cool breeze, and plenty of mosquitos to smack while kids gather candy on October 31st. Oh, the fondness of Fall memories growing up in Florida!
Have you heard? Book is……DONE!
First, a thank you.
Second, answering the most common questions.
Third, a request.
On Monday, August 21st, an eclipse of the sun will take place across North America. This will be the first total solar eclipse to cross the United States in ninety-nine years. Eclipse chasers will set up camp and wait for those few moments of what Astronomers call totality. It is a moment of awe, a rare event of glory.
I am very grateful for Daniel Henderson taking the time to provide this foreword to Esther’s Gospel, The God Who Is There.
Thanks for your prayers and the many words of encouragement regarding writing a book, (See here). I am back from my sabbatical which proved to be an amazing time of rest and writing.
Many of you are regular subscribers and readers of the Gospel Connections blog. Thank you for following, thanks for reading!
Many of you know that I am on a sabbatical, enjoying time with my family, resting, and writing a book. This is where I need your help. I need your comments to help me to land a title and subtitle!
The elders of the church I pastor, Trinity Community Church, have provided my family and I with a sabbatical. I am a very grateful pastor! So, today I find myself in a coffee shop in Falmouth, MA – are you kidding me!?! It’s amazing here! At least it is in the non-winter months….
There stands a cross, near not far-
See it: on the cover of the Book,
Around the neck,
In the cool morning mist Of the ‘ol graveyard.
Propitiation. Now there’s a word we don’t hear often enough.
The cross, for the most part, seems to be accepted in our society. People seem to be comfortable with that old rugged cross. No offense is taken by it as it hangs around one’s neck in wood, silver or gold. Furthermore, culture accepts and even appreciates the rows upon rows of white crosses at Arlington. And so, the cross is accepted…. or is it?
Responsibility…. that is what I am after. Who’s to blame, who can we fault, who might we charge for Christ’s bloody death? Certainly, there were a lot of participators. But, who is ultimately responsible for the death of the Son God, Jesus Christ? Was it Judas, Pilate, the Roman soldiers, or….?
Walk with me, it is worth the journey because the answer to the question will lead us to Gospel glory.
