A Bible Study on the Parable in Luke 14:15-24 In this parable, there is a very generous man who invites his frends to a feast held in his home. Despite his offer, everyone he invites declines for one reason or another. Determined to hold another grand feast, the master sends his servant to invite every … Continue reading The Feast
Questioning God
If you've read my post Sometimes Life is Hard - which I will link below - you'll know that I've reached a lot of points in my life where I've had to stand back and question God because I truly didn't understand hw anything good come from this. I've dealt with depression; I've had childhood … Continue reading Questioning God
Just Shower Thoughts #1
Hello, it's me again! I've decided to start a new series titled - you guessed it - Just Shower Thoughts. Now, I know you're probably thinking that's a strange name for a series on a religion based blog, but let me explain. I pray in the shower. I think in the shower. And some of … Continue reading Just Shower Thoughts #1
The Joy of Tribulation
Rejoicing despite tribulation has been a key point in tbe Bible. We find it when the Israelites escape Egypt; they sing and spread joy despite the trials they face. Peter tells us to be glad because even though we must endure trials, there is joy for us. "So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy … Continue reading The Joy of Tribulation
God’s Creator
One of the most common questions posed by skeptics relates to the origins of God. Who created God? God, however, is the creator of all things, and He doesn't need a creator - unlike the universe - for a multitude of reasons. Before we discuss that, however, it is important to realize that everything that has … Continue reading God’s Creator

The fruits of the Spirit, as discussed in Galatians 5:22-23, are describe … Continue reading Fruits of the Spirit
God and Free Will: Counterclaims
Free will has been a common topic on my blog (I will link previous posts below). It is only fair, then, that I discuss the counterclaims, specifically determinism, and why I am a believer in free will's coexistence with God Determinism, while a neutral idea in the sense that is existence is not dedicated entirely … Continue reading God and Free Will: Counterclaims
2018 in Review
In both my personal and spiritual life, 2018 has been possibly one of the hardest years of my entire life. I've been attacked by enemy in ways both internal and external; I moved out of my home and into a dorm, and I had to abandon (at least that's how it seems) my church for … Continue reading 2018 in Review
The God Exposure
This is slightly different than my recent blog posts; I've decided that it was time for an anecdote. This is a very current event, in fact, while writing this, I am in the midst of deep prayer and personal revival. It came while I was in the shower, if I'm being truthful. I was thinking … Continue reading The God Exposure
God: Three in One
I was recently discussing theology with a loved one; she has been a practicing Jehovah's Witness for 49 years - 50 in February. Now, I personally describe myself as non-denominational, so it didn't take very long for us to begin to discuss our contrasting beliefs. This was her first question to me: are God and Jesus the same person, and are they equal? I won't … Continue reading God: Three in One
