What the heck is a reprover? And why am I implying everyone needs one? Good questions – same ones I had as I read Brian Noble’s devotional from “Daily Wisdom for Peacemaking”. His scripture from Proverbs seemed rather obscure to me: “Like a gold ring or an ornament of gold is a wise reprover to
OK, New Year’s resolutions, and the month of January have passed. More frequently this year I heard people saying they don’t even set those types of resolutions anymore — and certainly heard lots of speculation about the average amount of time a New Year’s resolution is actually kept. Sure enough, Mick at his blog at
Yep, this is the week to focus on SOUL work – and yep, “running wild” is addressed in the Bible. Seriously. Why talk about this now? You will never guess how this pairs up with all the “goal-setting” and resolutions and 2024 planning that is going on right now. It certainly took me by surprise
“Our society is as idolatrous as Paul’s was” says Henry Blackaby in his devotional written in 1998. How could that be? When I think of idols, I think of those statues and temples built in Biblical times. Like the Golden Calf statue. Remember? Aaron claimed he threw the people’s gold “into the fire” and “out

In looking back over my 75+ years as have done my own “review” and guiding others to write their stories, pull together their photos, memories, insights and life-shaping
Testing! Final exams! Pop quiz! Do those words bring back bad memories of school days when you were facing tests at various intervals – some known and some “surprise” ones? Does for me. And who hasn’t observed a toddler who was told not to touch something that was “hot” or forbidden? As soon as the
Who brought this up for me? I could say “Henry Blackaby” because of a recent devotional of his. But the truth is that it came up again – I observed someone not being fully truthful about something because they “just didn’t want to get involved”. Blackaby says “One of the Christian’s greatest deterrents from sin
Joy is a choice? Boy, that sure goes against the grain of our worldly thinking! If you asked a dozen people if they would rather choose joy than it’s opposite, I bet they would all instantly say “of course” – as would I. But think about the ads you see everywhere – “this will bring
