Waiting on God

A blog about people's thoughts, writings, and lives as followers of Jesus waiting on God.

An Unexpected Journey

This story happened seven years ago, and as I recall, it was quite apparent that it was not the time to make a major life change. In fact, I really have no idea if it will ever happen at this point. But the thing I have learned, as the years have gone by, is that there does not always need to be a physical change to bring contentment and peace. I believe more often it is a heart change that brings contentment ... an attitude adjustment ... and an acceptance of what is, rather than what we wish it could be.

Biblical and Contemporary Christian Views of the Sabbath

Rest, rejuvenate, restore. How many advertisements and slogans deceitfully sport these words ? The human heart rightfully longs to be restored, but it wonders how. Since creation, the Lord God has been the provider and exemplar of the answer: Sabbath spent with Jesus. In this paper, I will go through the appearances and purposes of the Sabbath throughout the Old and New Testaments and church history. Then, I will consider contemporary arguments on whether or not Christians should observe the Sabbath, and if so, what that should look like.

My Personal Jesus Revolution

February 1969 was just like any February in my life up to now, at least that is what I thought. I was a freshman in high school and I found myself on a Young Life retreat at a Salvation Army Youth camp in southern Ohio. I had been attending Young Life, a Christian youth outreach that met weekly, since school started in September 1968. Also, I went every Thursday morning to Teen Breakfast Club, a youth outreach ministry of College Hill Presbyterian Church.
