Aftershocks of Revival

by John Bagwell on March 31, 2011 · 0 comments

The Japanese tragedy of the tremendous earthquake is being followed by the entire world right now.  What many people may be aware of, yet do not understand fully, is that the moment the earthquake hit Japan, it was only the beginning of it’s tragedy.  What was to follow would ultimately bring that nation to the [...]

Courage Under Fire

by John Bagwell on March 30, 2011 · 0 comments

When I hear those words, specific images cross my mind.  Fire in the distance.  Explosions.  Dark of night.  A man in combat gear.  A soldier somewhere cries out for help.  A distance is crossed.  Gunfire rings out.  Bullets strike the earth.  One soldier lifts another over his shoulders and begins a trek back to safety.  [...]

and so I am moved

by John Bagwell on March 29, 2011 · 0 comments

Yesterday’s article title was only part of the sentence.  Today, I finish the thought.  “I do now see . . . and so I am moved.”  Yesterday I gave part of the verse in Matthew 9:36 “But when he saw the multitudes,  . . .” – and today I will finish the rest of the [...]

I do now see

by John Bagwell on March 28, 2011 · 0 comments

I remember, years ago, there were these 3D pictures that looked like some sort of weird art project at first glance.  They usually had some neon color with a pattern that looked to repeat itself over and over.  They were called, “Magic Eye” and if you looked at them from the right distance, with your [...]

Pray for Power

by John Bagwell on March 26, 2011 · 0 comments

“Pray for Power” was the catch phrase of Christians many years ago much as the “WWJD” swept the country just a few years back.  They are useful reminders of things we should be doing or thinking about.  As Christian men, prayer should not be a by-word, a passing request, or something we think about only [...]

What Can Happen When Revival Comes

by John Bagwell on March 25, 2011 · 0 comments

Revival is just around the corner.  Do you have any expectations?  Are you thinking about specific things you would like to see God do in your life, in your church, in the lives of others?  Are you praying along those lines? Revival is an opportunity, a time for reflection on the past, and a time [...]

The First Thing You See

by John Bagwell on March 24, 2011 · 0 comments

When you look at people, what it the first thing you notice about them?  It is an exercise used by people in many different professions, and a way of teaching their pupils in that profession ways of gauging their audience/potential customers/whatever about what they can expect from the people they are talking to.  Sir Arthur [...]

The Preparation for Revival

by John Bagwell on March 23, 2011 · 0 comments

Our church is less than one week away from Revival meetings.  I am in great anticipation of what God can do, but are we ready?  Revival does not come just because we stamp the name “Revival” on several services in a row and invite a guest speaker.  Revival does not come just be cause we [...]

Something New

by John Bagwell on March 22, 2011 · 0 comments

Who would like to have a new car, a new house, or a new set of clothes?  When defined materialistically, I don’t think anyone would mind having something new.  As a kid I’d collect pictures of the Ferrari Testarosa, my dream car, and dreaming I surely was.  Later in life, my want of new things [...]
