Two small words: "in" and "with." They almost seem insignificant. Helpless. Unimportant. Just two tiny dots on the landscape of the English language. But these words, uttered from the mouth of Jesus, have profound meaning and importance. Consider the following: "Abide in (not with) Me, and I in (not with) you... If you abide in (not with) Me, and my words abide in (not with) you..." You know, there may be something to these two tiny words. Listen and find out... |

Preparing for the
End: The Coming Darkness

Be warned.
The judgment of God is coming to America... and may
already have begun. When God brings judgment (calamity)
it often helps to remember the big picture: 1. All calamity is the result of sin. 2. Sometimes God brings special calamity as a judgment of sin. 3. Before calamity strikes, God always warns His people. 4. God is patient. So patient that many begin to feel that judgment won't happen. 5. Before judgment, God is ready to forgive those who come to Him on His terms. |

Preparing for the
End: What Would a 12 Year Old Think?

Jesus, in
Mark 10, told His disciples that unless they received
the kingdom of God as a "child" they could not enter
into it at all. "Permit the children to come to Me; do not hinder them; for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child will not enter it at all." Strange, sobering words. But what did they mean back then? And do they mean the same thing today? Listen and find out. |

The Prophecies of
Daniel: The Faith of Just One Man

Often the Enemy tries to make us feel like we are nothing... just a single, lonely, isolated individual trying to faithfully stand against a massive and formidable Satanic kingdom. Did you ever feel like that? Maybe you've uttered some desperate words like, "What's the use? Why resist." Or maybe you've looked at the mountain in front of you and the small shovel in your hand and asked, "Why did you make life so hard, Lord?" Reality speaks different. Think about it: One man, in his nineties, literally changed a nation and caused a pagan king to offer praises to God. How? Listen and find out. | ||||||||||||||||

The Prophecies of
Daniel: Don't Count Me Out Yet!

Sometimes we allow Satan to sell us the lie that our time of usefulness to the Lord is over. You know, it's done. Finished. And sometimes we hold on to the lie that because of our squandered youth, or nagging sin, or maybe just the sheer number of missed and lost opportunities we've had to be faithful to the Lord - that He has benched us, like an expansion team coach, in favor of a younger, faster rookie. And then we often allow Satan to rob the church of the wisdom, insight and perseverance that only time and experience can master. Did you know that Daniel might have felt the same way? Let's talk about it. | ||||||||||||||||

Preparing for the
End: Can You Trust the Church?

Question:
Can you trust the church to always communicate the
truth? Can you trust the church to always do and
teach what is "right, true, honorable, pure, lovely, of
excellence, worthy of praise, or of good repute?" Answer: No. Why? Because the church has been infiltrated and compromised. The enemy, like the birds in the parable of the mustard seed, are now within the walls - making nests in the branches. The church as we know it today has a "form of godliness but has no power." She is impotent. Apathetic. A dry stream. So what are we to do? Listen and find out... |

The Prophecies of

Did you ever
take the time to see just how much the Scriptures say
about the sin and consequences of pride? It's
overwhelming. Convicting. Down right scary. First, the Lord Himself calls pride an abomination. Then the Proverbs are chocked full of warnings to the proud, the arrogant and the boastful. Adam and Even fell because of pride. Satan was cast from heaven because of pride. And the Old Testament gives us, over and over again it seems, detailed personal portraits of great leaders brought low... real low, because of the sin of pride. Nebuchadnezzar was just one. This is his story. |

The Prophecies of
Daniel: No More Lame Excuses

Did you ever wonder why it is so easy for us to trust the words of the Lord for our eternal security, yet not trust Him for our daily bread? Think about it: When Jesus says He is "preparing a place for us and will come again to receive us to be where He is"— we have no problem with that. We hold on to those words, cherish those words, are encouraged by those words. But what about when He also says "to seek His kingdom and all these things (food, shelter, clothing) will be given to us?" Do we have the same faith in temporal promises as we do in eternal ones? Daniel did. | ||||||||||||||||

The Prophecies of
Daniel: Biblical, Non-Osteen "Favor"
Wednesday,

Sometimes, with just the passing of time, the meaning of words change. For example, "cool" goes from meaning "chilly" or "the opposite of warm" to... well, cool. "Gay" no longer means "happy" or "carefree"— but now means something different altogether. Even Biblical words can be twisted when interpreted through the lens of a perverted, compromised culture. Take the word "favor" for instance. Because of TV preachers it now means that God will give you stuff, trinkets and toys, because you are special or He likes you more than other people. But that was not its original meaning. | ||||||||||||||||

The Joy of Believing the Lie
“I’m completely in favor of the separation of Church and
State.
My idea is that these two institutions screw us up enough on
their own,
so that both of them together is certain death.”
George Carlin (1937-2008)
I am keenly aware of the fact that you may be wondering
about a guy who would write a book entitled,
Love Jesus, Hate
Church. You probably have some questions, maybe many
questions, about the origins of a book that makes people as
uncomfortable as
Love Jesus, Hate Church has proven to do.
You may be asking yourself, "How can you be a Christian
and use the words Love and Hate and Jesus and Church all in
the same sentence? It just seems so wrong."
And, you're right. It does seem wrong.
True. But wrong.
Yep, I would probably be wondering the same thing if
the tables were turned and I found myself in your shoes.
So, let me see if I can shed some light on who I am and
why I do what I do by telling you a bit about myself and how I
came to write
Love Jesus, Hate Church. Let me share with you,
oh, how shall I put it— the joy of believing the lie. I
believe this will give you a better grasp of who I am and why
I wrote
Love Jesus, Hate Church.
