  • The Future Forest

    Change is inevitable as they say, even to long-lived life forms such as trees.  Our area presently have a fairly uniform oak-hickory type forest (average age 60 to 110 years) in the upland ridges, and young mixed hardwood forests in the hollows and drains. 

    Several forces are at work that could change the look and function of our forests.

  • We are responsible for sharing...

    I am continuing this week with the though of sharing the plan of salvation. I believe as Christ gave the Disciples the Great Commission to go into all the world… We may not have to go into all the world… but we are responsible for sharing Christ with others.

  • Great comebacks marked the decade...

                       “Ah, Lord God! Behold, Thou hast made the heavens and the earth by Thy great power and by thine outstretched arm. Nothing is too difficult for Thee”(Jeremiah 32:17).

  • Christ fulfilment of the Old...

    The writer of Hebrews refers back to the Old Testament scripture many times, showing that Christ truly was the fulfillment of the promises found there.
    Jesus Christ, as the son of God, is superior to all things and all religions, and faith in him alone is sufficient for a victorious Christian life.
    Hebrews has sometimes been called a miniature bible in that it begins with God (see Genesis 1:1) and ends with the heavenly Jerusalem (see Revelation 21), with Christ in between.

  • Share salvation

    Do you think we should share our faith? Why? In Matthew 28:18-20, Jesus gave the disciples something called, “The great commission.”
    And Jesus came and spoke unto them saying, “All power is given to me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
    Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.”

  • The wonder of coming to life

    “But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ” (Ephesians 2:4-5).
    This past weekend many people observed Easter Sunday with everything from sunrise worship services and new spring clothes to colored eggs and chocolate bunnies.  While the holiday has become another American excuse to spend money, it still marks the most significant event in all human history—the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

    Jail ministry shines light in dark...

    The walls and floor are littered with graffiti.
    The writings proclaim everything from a love a of heroin to a love of a God.
    The room has a stale smell of hopelessness and despair.
    But for five hours every Sunday night that changes.
    Instead it is filled with a message of faith and deliverance.

  • Easter recipe reminds of Holy Day

     Several years ago I found this recipe for Easter Story cookies in a Nature Living Magazine, and decided to share it again with you readers.

    We live in a world where too many children only have a secular view of Easter. Our children need to be taught that Easter is not about colored eggs and Easter bunnies, or spring break. It is about an empty tomb and a risen Christ.

  • The week that changed the world

     I borrowed the headline from a wonderful Easter play or Cantata I saw several years ago. It was fantastic. There was so much love and devoted faithfulness by everyone who participated, it was so encouraging.

    If you would read Matthew 23-25, you will read of the last sermons Jesus preached.

    So much happened the last week of Jesus life on Earth, I can share a little of it, but you should read it in its entirety. 

  • Comment mirrors turbulent times

     “Now you yourselves are to put off all these: anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy language out of your mouth.   Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his deeds,  and have put on the new man who is renewed in knowledge according to the image of Him who created him” (Colossians 3:8-10).

    Head in the clouds: Sky is limit...

    With its nose lined up on the white centerline, everything is ready. 

    “Downtown traffic. 757 Sierra Yankee. Departing runway 26, downtown traffic,” says the pilot.

    The engine begins to roar. It speeds down the runway. Then suddenly—lift off. 

    The climb begins.

    Once at 3,500 feet, everything is quiet. Off in the distance, are the towering Great Smoky Mountains.

  • Spiritually Speaking for week of...

     Do we pray and show forgiveness and mercy

     

     

    I have been studying about the importance of prayer. When the disciples realized they needed more strength to do their work, they knew Jesus spent much time in prayer. One of the disciples asked Jesus, “Lord teach us to pray.”

    Matt. 6:9-13 gives this model prayer, “After this manner therefore pray ye: Our father which art in heaven, hallowed by thy name

    Thy kingdom come.

    They will be done in earth as it is in heaven.
