A soul hoping for the promise of Ecclesiastes 3:11. Taking a Break →. March 8, 2011. Then Jesus came to them and said, All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age. Matthew 28:18-20. The verse from Acts ties into the ‘as you go’. Je...Christians ha...

Life is Good: Middle of the Road Churches
http://rebarron.blogspot.com/2010/01/middle-of-road-churches.html
Simple thoughts from a simple life. Tuesday, January 12, 2010. Middle of the Road Churches. William C. Taylor writes in his new book,. For decades, organizations and their leaders were comfortable with strategies and practices that kept them in the middle of the road—that’s where the customers were, so that’s what felt safe and secure. Today, with so much change and uncertainty, so much pressure and new ways to do things, the middle of the road is the road to nowhere. Are you the most of anything? The ag...

Life is Good: May 2009
http://rebarron.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Simple thoughts from a simple life. Saturday, May 9, 2009. Mission Trip to Armenia and Israel. Last month, 270 Oklahomans travelled to Northern Europe for a music missions trip. I sing in a group known as the Singing Men of Oklahoma. Through almost three years of planning, praying, and preparation, we had developed an itinerary that included singing for over a million people in one day, and celebrating Armenia's most sacred national holiday. Links to this post. Monday, May 4, 2009. Blessings, friends, for.

Life is Good: Get a Grip, People....
http://rebarron.blogspot.com/2010/01/get-grip-people.html
Simple thoughts from a simple life. Wednesday, January 6, 2010. Get a Grip, People. It's official. It's winter here in Oklahoma. We have had snow on the ground for about two weeks, and supposedly more is on the way. Bitter, frigid temperatures hovering below the -0- mark are in store for us over the next few days. And maybe, just maybe, and inch of snow. And so, all schools are closed tomorrow, some for Friday as well. There is no milk or bread at Wal. Feel free to comment. View my complete profile.

Life is Good
http://rebarron.blogspot.com/2010/01/aged-wood-is-beginning-to-reveal-its.html
Simple thoughts from a simple life. Tuesday, January 12, 2010. The aged wood is beginning to reveal its weaknesses against the power of the weather; cracks and chips follow its sinewy grain. The door hangs at a slight angle, giving way to the rise and fall and movement in the frame of the house itself; floating slightly with the spring rains, sinking again with the cooler weather and contracting concrete slab. Yesterday, we lost the doorknob. But the striker bolt refused to budge. I tapped it lightly...

Life is Good: June 2009
http://rebarron.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Simple thoughts from a simple life. Sunday, June 28, 2009. In Our Own Image. In a Bible study tonight, my mind and heart were slammed into reality as we considered the historical Jesus. We spoke about His genealogy. His lineage, and his backstory. And we were challenged with this thought. Based on historical research and study, Jesus was probably short in height, with thick, dark hair and a ruddy middle-eastern complexion. For generations, we (in the West) have imagined Jesus as a tall Caucasian. While l...

Life is Good: The Cost of Discipleship
http://rebarron.blogspot.com/2010/01/cost-of-discipleship.html
Simple thoughts from a simple life. Monday, January 11, 2010. The Cost of Discipleship. I stand (sit at my desk, actually) convicted by these words, written ages ago by Deitrich Bonhoffer:. When God calls, go. Do not try to see how it fits into yours or anyone else's plans. Do not dictate your terms. God has plans. When you find them, though you may not understand them, you will find they fit. Feel free to comment. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Books I Am Reading.
