Don’t Waste Your Life – Week 1
Here is the first week in our study through the New Life ABF. The first step to living a life that is not wasted is to realize:
1. Everything is His (God’s)
2. He is our Purpose
3. He is our Life
This is a starting point for a proper view, not just of Christianity, but reality. We are enamored in our culture with “reality shows”, which are clearly not real. They are the marketed perversions of life that are based upon illusionary, perceived realities – they are only fulfilled idolatry. Christ is real. God is real. Eternity is real.

Prayer, Open Theism and a really hard Sunday School Lesson
Sometimes I really want to stop in the middle of a lesson and take a picture and then show everyone I am teaching what they look like and then ask, “So, what are you thinking?”
Well, at the apex/end of a short overview of the Old Testament wisdom literature and the biblical teaching on wisdom in general, we took two weeks in my Sunday School class on the will of God – defining and determining, last week and this week respectively. As I bit off a 16lb bite of the hamburger this last week, I realized that it would be better if I wrote a bit more to explain a bit more clearly.
