Discerning the Times, Part 39

We are continuing to address the following three questions in relation to world events: 1) What is happening? 2) What is not happening? 3) What can we do about it? From the perspective of our calling to be “the light of the world” (see Matthew 5:14), we should have answers from the Lord concerning...

We are addressing the following questions: 1) What is happening? 2) What is not happening? 3) What can we do?

I See a New America

What will America be like in 2020? Some believe we will be another socialist state modeled after various European countries. Others see an even more extreme form of totalitarianism in our future. Some believe a reaction to the recent radical turn to the left will result in an even more radical swing to the extreme right after the seemingly inevitable economic meltdown. However, there is another possibility. The following is a very possible scenario. In just ten years, America could have:

Discerning the Times, Part 37

We are addressing the following questions: 1) What is happening? 2) What is not happening? 3) What can we do about it? This week we will address question 2: What is not happening?

Discerning the Times, Part 36

Our goal is to discern: 1) What is happening? 2) What is not happening? 3) What we can do about it? We might paraphrase Question 3: What can we do to be the salt and light we are called to be in our times? In order to be the light we are called to be, we must have it or have understanding of it. We...

Discerning the Times, Part 35

Newsweek Magazine recently boasted that Christianity in America was dead. This slap in the face to the church in America only served to wake her up. Many took the comment and held it up before the Lord as Hezekiah did with the boasts of the Assyrian general against the Lord. It is most encouraging...

Discerning the Times, Part 34

Nearly twenty years ago, Bob Weiner, John Elliott, and I were doing a radio show together when the Spirit came upon us and we were shown 500,000 small home groups being raised up all over America. These were places where new believers would come for salvation, healing, deliverance, and basic...

An Anchor for the Soul

I have been studying leadership for almost forty years, and it is a subject so vast and deep that I am constantly learning more about it. One of the most curious things about leadership is that those who may not understand much about it can have a great deal of it. Likewise, those who can know a great deal about it can have very little of it. Having followers is proof that one is a leader.

Discerning the Times, Part 33

To briefly review the purpose of this study, we are addressing how to discern the times from the perspective of answering three ultimate questions: 1) What is happening? 2) What is not happening? 3) What can we do about it? Using these three questions in a crisis can help us stay on course to...

Discerning the Times, Part 32

With the recent passage of the “hate crimes” bill in Congress, the persecution of the church in America by its government has begun. We can expect it to begin slowly, but we need to prepare for an onslaught because it is coming. Of course, all Christians should be against hate and crime. Many who...
