  • The Beginning of the Gospels

    We continue through the bible by chronologically by hitting the intro of each of the Gospels.  Notice the differences between each of them.

  • What does it mean to read the Bible?

    When you were in school, your English teacher would give you a text book and there would be assigned reading, practice questions, review sections, and assignments. Segments of great writings would be included in the text book, but never the entire story. Just the parts you needed to study the method of writing, the verbiage,…

  • Friendly but…

    Tonight I was reading I timothy, I must confess it has been to long since I have devoted time to God’s word. I am taking my time to absorb it this time as opposed to my competitive eating style. I began in I Timothy but stumbled and had to take some time on v. 5.

  • Study has interesting things to say about Speaking with Tongues.

    Although my view on this topic has changed slightly from the traditional pentecostal stance I do believe that Speaking in other Tongues is a Biblical gift from the Holy Spirit.  I think this study is very interesting, you have to get to the third page to really see the neat stuff, the first two are…

  • The Silver Chair

    In one of my favorite stories from C.S. Lewis a girl named Jill Pole has entered Narnia, Lewis’ fantasy world for the first time and has found herself alone knowing very little about the world around her.   In this passage she heard a stream and became very thirsty but when she came nearer the…

  • Make your critics your coaches…

    Make your critics your coaches… Last night I was listening to Mark Driscoll at church and he came to a part that was very challenging to me. Let be digress and say that recently I have been asking God how I can live out the gospel in my own life. I have enough knowledge on…

  • internetmonk.com » Blog Archive » Jesus and My Stuff

    This is an article by the Internetmonk that touches on a topic that is very unusual to me. I have thought about it on several different occasions but being saved and educated in a prosperity environment I don’t know that I have ever carefully considered it. How much could I live without and should I?…
