Lunch With A Young Lady

When the For Sale sign went on my motorcycle, the first thing my daughter asked me was, “Are you going to sell your motorcycle?” It was not a question of if, but more a question of why. I explained to her that I did not need the motorcycle anymore, and that we needed the money [...]

Walking On Water

by John Bagwell on July 29, 2011 · 0 comments

The Bible is full of amazing stories and miracles, but one of my top favorites is the day Peter, a common man just like you and me, walked on water. Consider for a moment who Peter was before and after he did this. Peter was a fisherman and well acquainted with water and the seas. [...]

Every Man A Minister

by John Bagwell on July 28, 2011 · 0 comments

Pop quiz: what do you expect from a pastor? We all know the qualifications of a pastor in I Timothy 3 and in Titus 1, but we also each have expectations of how those qualifications play out in ministry.

Undermined

In the age of castles, wars were recognized as protracted conflicts lasting many months and even years. There is a vision of war where immense masses of armies clash together in epic battle, but this was not always the reality of war in the past. When castles and fortresses were effective and available, the reality [...]

To Whom Much Is Given

by John Bagwell on July 26, 2011 · 0 comments

During this economic crisis, it seems many in government are eyeballing the rich in this country to pay the way out of debt. Whether you agree with this political stance or not, there is a sense that because they are rich, because they have handled their money well, because they have invested wisely, and because [...]

A few nights ago, I was working on something in my office at home when I heard what sounded like my youngest daughter reading a book out loud in her room. When I went to look, I saw my youngest sitting next to her, listening as she read. Wanting to capture the moment, I went [...]

Good Guys vs Bad Boys

by John Bagwell on July 23, 2011 · 1 comment

We’ve all heard the oft used phrase that “Good guys always finish last.” It seems that what girls really want is the scoundrel bad boy type, and this confuses good guys. Brent Mark Lawrence delves directly into these two types in an attempt to explain why bad boys seem to be more preferred, but also [...]

Why High Standards Are Good

by John Bagwell on July 22, 2011 · 0 comments

Coming from an Independent Baptist background, I have seen the damage that can be done to people’s lives when they are told how to live their lives, and told they are not being good Christians when they do not follow a moral code outlined by the church. If you don’t “follow the rules” in some [...]
