John 12 begins the last week of Jesus’ life and ministry. The first eight verses capture a glimpse of four people who knew Jesus very well; four people who had encountered and experienced Jesus, yet relate to him differently.
Lazarus (whom Jesus raised from the dead) with his family (sisters Martha and Mary) have a […]

While on our recent beach trip, I read the book Jesus with Dirty Feet. My friend Adam recommended the it to me, and I sincerely enjoyed the short book. Author Don Everts casually writes good observations of Jesus and stays true to the line on the books cover: a down-to-earth look […]

(beautiful Melody “under the sea”) 
My sweet wife and I headed for a quick overnight beach trip at the Isle of Palms. After the Friday noontime rain, the weather was perfect. We got a bit of sun, enjoyed a swim, and several walks along the beach. We had dinner at Sullivan’s (shrimp and grits….yum….) and […]

Augusta is a unique city. This weekend, I randomly read the wikipedia entry about Augusta. Take a minute to explore our fine city- rich in history with a tinge of embarrassment. However, it’s a great place with amazingly large opportunities and potential. Read the wikipedia article here.

The scene opens with Lazarus, a loved friend of Jesus, being deathly […]

BIKING
I have been a biking fiend more this summer than ever before. I enjoy cruising around our part of town and around the campus of Augusta State University. Of course, the Augusta Canal and North Augusta Greenway are fun as well. However, FATS (Forks Area Trail System) is probably my favorite. […]

This week, we set up our baby’s bed in the nursery. On top of the cute chandelier, the hot pink curtains, and decorations, the crib and bedding have made it all the more real. The nursery is absolutely adorable and is now my favorite room in our house!
Below are the lyrics from the […]

I’ve written of them before and hope to have many more opportunities to write about VEARA. Their new album The Walls Have Ears is really, really good. Visit their site for more info or download it from iTunes. And most definitely check out their live show- extremely fun.

John 10:22-42 takes place against the backdrop of the Feast of Dedication, also known as Hanukkah.  After the desecration of the temple by Antiochus Epiphanes in 167 B.C., a revolt ensued.  “Judah the Hammer,” or “Judas Maccabaeus,” led a revolt against the Syrian throne in 165 B.C. and reclaimed the temple and thus the freedom […]
