I Believe the Good Old Bible

I Believe the Good Old Bible

The Good Old Bible Since I have been converted, old satan and his folks Keep bothering me with questions in the form of silly jokes. I only have one answer, and this is it, my friend: I believe the good old Bible from beginning to the end. I believe that father Adam was the first created man, That Eve was made his wife according to the Maker’s plan. They lost their home in Eden; the Lord they did offend.

Sewing, Women, and the Bible

Sewing, Women, and the Bible

(This is another good example of bad exegesis. If you don’t appreciate humor, move along.) Brothers and sisters, I’m here to tell you about what the Bible admonishes us about sewing. Godly women sew! Women of faith sew! Men? They need to just leave it alone. As usual, I’ll be moving around in the Holy text today. The first mention of sewing was in Genesis after Eve ate from the fruit … Read entire article »

Success Brings Conflict

We get a promotion, and then suddenly we encounter opposition. “God, what’s the problem?” we wonder. There’s no problem. It’s an opportunity. David had ruled for over seven years in Hebron. After the death of Ishbosheth, son of Saul, the tribes of Israel came to ask him to be king. They made a covenant together and anointed him ruler over all Israel. Shortly after that, the Philistines heard the news and gathered their armies in force to hunt him down and kill him. David did two things of note: he went down to the stronghold, and he inquired of God for direction. The first part is important because he strengthened his position against the enemy. Militarily, it did not make good sense to be in … Read entire article »

In Memorial

In Memorial

  Tender. Delicate. Fragile.   Life.   Abused, misused, or confused.   Life.   Sown. Grown. Not our own.   Life.   Two choices. Only two. A steady gaze inside with all that it can bring. Or adoration upward, obeisance to the king.   Heartbeat. Stop. None.   Life. No longer. Done.   Brevity. Spark. Breath.   Silence. Coldness. Death.   All of us are headed, without question, to the grave. None among us has the power of life to save.   Mercy. His Life. He gave it.   Lose. Your life. To save it.   The decision is yours. He gave. You can have true life. Only believe.   Jesus, you are my Life.   Craig Thompson I wrote this poem July 26, 1991 between 8:15-25 pm upon hearing that my good friend Lorna Dee Lavender had … Read entire article »

Rules, Rulers and Rights

Romans 12 Grace and mercy are not an end to rules for conduct or an evidence that we are living perfect lives. Grace and mercy are reasons for us to obey God and the means by which God changes our hearts (the goodness of God leads you to repentance). The will of God is related to our sanctification, is related to finding our place in the body, and is something that we can know more of as we are changed in our minds. “Be not overcome of evil” ties into ch 13 — “rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft.” Romans 13 Paul deals here with our relationship to the outside world. Paul wrote this while living under Roman leadership and government. He knew that there are wicked rulers. Paul did … Read entire article »

Shattered: A Book with a Purpose

Shattered:  A Book with a Purpose

When I started a mentoring program for my son in 2010, I knew it would be a challenge to find a mentor every week for a year.  I also had an inkling that I was also signing up for a bigger task in that his siblings would expect the same thing.  What I didn’t realize at the time is that this initial journey would result in a fourteen year old girl writing a full-length novel. When … Read entire article »
