Chuck Swindoll on Defending Our Faith

mikeandsus

Chuck Swindoll is my “guest author” today on why we need to share our faith and how to prepare ourselves. The following is a quote from his newsletter: “Balance is achieved in four areas. Number one: know where you stand. You cannot afford the luxury of being ignorant or ill-informed when it comes to biblical truth and faith. So educate yourself in the common areas that come under attack: the Bible, the Trinity, the person and work of Christ, and the means of salvation.” Read the full article here.

Gatorland revisited

mikeandsus

We had a nice, leisurely day at Gatorland last Saturday. Sus is an avid birdwatcher so she especially enjoyed seeing the rookery. We watched egrets build nests and saw an egg in one nest and an adult feeding a hatchling in another one! We also saw four spoonbills nesting. The late sun over the lagoon made for good photography. Gatorland is offering a Florida resident special through February, so the park was crowded, but crowds were thinnest either early in the day or late. In fact, the park stayed open past closing and a lot of the crowds had gone. … Continue reading Gatorland revisited

Meeting Needs

mikeandsus

Maybe handing a tract to someone is not your idea of loving the nonbeliever, but handing them a box of groceries would be your best expression of God’s love to them. I ran across a number of different Christian websites today letting you know how you can volunteer your time and reach people for Christ. I am listing them specifically on the Sower’s Tools and Tips blog and will add to them when I find more. REMINDER: I also highly recommend a very good article by Tim Chester in The Sower’s online newspaper. Tim encourages us to reach out to … Continue reading Meeting Needs

The Sower and His Seed

mikeandsus

I learned a lot from Joe Jack Dement. Since the excellent video on the Parable of The Sower, featured in the last post, is only on the web temporarily, I am posting some thoughts I gleaned from this 80-year-old wheat farmer. Jesus explains the seeds and the meaning behind the birds, the footpath, and the other parallels in His parable. Mr. Dement’s knowledge of wheat farming adds to our understanding of the parable. WHEN and WHERE Just as the farmer casts the seed away from him, we can drop a little word about Jesus, a Bible verse, or a Scriptural … Continue reading The Sower and His Seed

Modern Parables

mikeandsus

A friend directed me to Bible study videos of Jesus’ parables. The videos and extra materials are available to purchase on disc or as downloads. Modern Parables is allowing us to view all six of their films in their entirety for a limited time. I particularly liked The Widow and the Judge and The Sower. I enjoyed the others, too. For more thoughts about The Sower video, go to the post at the main Sower site. These videos could be used for evangelistic purposes and are of high quality. In fact, I sent the link to Modern Parables to a … Continue reading Modern Parables
