Heart of Worship by Sarah Hernandez (my lil sister)

​​Heart of Worship week 1  by Sarah Hernandez ​ ​If you know me, you know that I love the ocean. It is a very special place for me and I feel a certain peace and closeness with God when I am there. I also surf, so I am very familiar with how the waves work, how the tide ebbs and flows, and the rhythms of the water. One day, while sitting on my surfboard, God gave me a vision of what kind of worship He wants from me, and he used the very thing I love, to illustrate it. I saw myself wading into the water, at first only knee deep, still standing on shore. I was completely content standing on the shore and feeling the water rushing back and forth, gently hitting my knees and back again. But there was a longing for more inside of my soul, to go deeper. I heard the Lord quietly beckon me out further, reminding me that He has everything under control, and to surrender the pre-conceived notions I have about Him and what my worship to Him may look like. Suddenly, I saw my...

Not Congruent: A Response to FB Red Equal Symbol Marriage Equality Profile Picture Protest

Some good points on redefining marriage. I saw everyone changing their FB picture to the red equal symbol, and so I decided to change mine to the "not congruent" symbol. I used white text in a slate black field.  http://s3.amazonaws.com/thf_media/2013/pdf/bg2775.pdf

REPOST: What resources would you most like to see available in Logos?

Original Post:  http://community.logos.com/forums/p/18568/424892.aspx#424892 I have a question which kinda goes with this topic. I'm trying to rationalize purchasing a LOGOS 5 plan, and i don't want to just purchase a whole bunch of material which will either go unread, or keep me from viewing the resources which I am most interested in. I'm loving the idea of the timeline, so at this point i'm looking at either a Gold plan or a Platinum plan. The thing is, i've been researching Apologetics and Patristics with a friend, and am seriously considering purchasing these three sets from Amazon.com; (or have been for over 2 years) - but am closer to pulling the trigger. In everything else, I have switched from purchasing books in print, and have moved to either Kindle, iBooks, Zinio, Kno, or  iTunes-U. I have a Macbook, & an iPad2 to work with.  I've also downloaded Olive Tree, Bible.com's App, and a number of other "free" App versions of Bible ...

More Christian Than You Are: Judging Other Christians

More Christian Than You Are 0 October 29, 2012,   0  Comments Romans 2:1 NASB Therefore you have no excuse, everyone of you who passes judgment, for in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things. I'm having a hard time right now with my parents, who say they are Christian, and in a very hurtful way, they will tell me that my heart is not right, or that i'm not living my life right, or that my problems are a result of not living a good Christian life. I go to Church regularly, up until recently, I would go to Church with my Mom, while my Dad was out surfing. I've read the Bible 4 times, and I know (or at least I can tell when a verse from the Bible is being cited, and) when someone is making up something that sounds like it should be in the Bible, but it isn't. My Dad doesn't read the Bible. And so, I am basically at odds with people who are stuck in the 80's mentality of how ...

Resentments Within A Reaganite Family October 28, 2012,   1  Comments   Edit post Mark 13:9 ESV 9  “But be on your guard. For they will deliver you over to councils, and you will be beaten in synagogues, and you will stand before governors and kings for my sake, to bear witness before them. Criminal Threats / Terrorism? Or using a Metaphor towards Providing insight as to How much capital a family hoards vs how much they help their less fortunate family members. Romans 3:10 NASB as it is written, "THERE IS NONE RIGHTEOUS, NOT EVEN ONE; It started simply with my parents understanding that I was using WiFi phone, and was in the process of looking for a job.
