You can be healed. It’s given to extremes. One extreme cancels it out altogether. They profess faith in God and stand by the Bible ardently regarding morality and the quest to affirm the primacy of Jesus. It’s just that they think it stopped when the apostles died out. The other extreme insists that it should […]
Read More JJ 24 #47: There’s HealingHere’s the premise of the conversation. Previously in the conversation: I did it! Yeah, I did it. I knew if I trained hard, said my prayers and ate my vitamins that I’d be strong enough to accomplish it. And just like Hulk Hogan taught me, I did it! I beat him! Not Hulk Hogan, you understand. […]
Read More ADBC: 42 – Mobile Issues And How Dare God Kill?Here’s the premise of the conversation. There have been forty episodes in the conversation so far before this one. That’s a lot of questions asked. That’s a lot of questions answered. My brother has not answered every single question to the same degree of greatness – that’s just not how we operate. What has remained remarkably […]

Back in the day I would spend time away from blogging because I was moving home, or because I genuinely ran out of the rhythm and then spent a while away from blogging. That has been so […]
Read More When You’re Down and Out … with FluThis is an interesting Psalm. Are you comfortable in the light of Jesus advising us to love our enemies and bless those who persecute us, reading a Psalm where the writer is a victim waiting to get well so he can see the comeuppance of those who mocked him while he was sick? While considering […]
Read More Psalm 41 – When You’re Sick And TiredJudah never had a king like Hezekiah. His reign represented a high point in the age of the monarchy in the southern kingdom.
