Throughout the Holy Scriptures people were called to engage with God. They were called to "Reason together" and to "search the Scriptures" in order to clarify the truth. This Blog is designed to interact over topics and scriptures discussed during the worship gatherings at the Felton Bible Church. We invite you to join us in this ongoing conversation as we take this journey together in following Jesus, the Messiah.

SOMETIMES YOU JUST NEED TO BLOG YOUR THOUGHTS in order to get things of your chest and out of your spirit so that you can think more clearly. Consider this one of those blog-posts.
In the beginning of the book Mr. Hyatt writes about one of the first things needed in building your platform is having something to sell or say that contain a "Wow!" factor. Kind of like coming through the Wawona Tunnel and seeing Yosemite Valley expanding before you. As I thought about the wow factor to my platform (preaching, teaching, pastoring) I realized I didn't have one."If you want to know what God wants your to do -- ask Him, and He will gladly tell you." (James 1:5)
"Create in me a clean heart, O God and renew a steadfast spirit within me. (Psalm 51:10)

JUXTAPOSED: FINDING SANCTUARY ON THE OUTSIDE, by Daisy Rain Martin, a book I was given to review, was one in which I could find very little sanctuary for my soul.

HAVING BOTH MY PARENTS IN HEAVEN, along with my wife's and with my role as a pastor, death seems always before me. And to be honest, the older one gets (like me) the closer it seems on a personal level.
