Personal Relationship are part of the fabric of who we are. Yet relationships don’t make sense in every worldview. In fact personal relationships are intelligible and meaningful in a Christian worldview.
On May 21st there was a conference called “Rescue Youth and Young Adult Conference 2022” at Metropolitan Baptist Church at Hollywood Florida. Speaker James Hanna delivered an excellent message employing Presuppositional Apologetics to drive the point home that relationships presupposes the Biblical worldview.

Prayer is Mightier than the Sword
I am going to make this post of my thoughts on Exodus 17:8-16 on the importance of prayer in case in the future I preach on it and research more nevertheless here’s my initial thoughts looking at the passage. The passage overall purpose is prayer is important; its so important that prayer might be mightier than the sword.
The holding up of the hands is an action of prayer; see Psalm 63:4 and 1 Timothy 2:8.

Note: Last week I posted “My Rough Translation of 1 Peter 1:3-7” that was part of my sermon preparation for a retreat. Some of you shared you would like to see the finished sermon outline. Here it is.
Establish the need: I do think our world will become more Post-Christian and with that I do think there will be an increase of Christian suffering both in the West and already the case outside the west. Yet can we have joy in the midst of suffering as a Christian?
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 to obtain an inheritance which is imperishable, undefiled, and will not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, 5 who are protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
6 In this you greatly rejoice, even though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been distressed by various [b]trials, 7 so that the [c]proof of your faith, being more precious than gold which perishes though tested by fire, may be found to result in praise, glory, and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ; 8 and though you have not seen Him, you love Him, and though you do not see Him now, but believe in Him, you greatly rejoice with joy inexpressible and [d]full of glory, 9 obtaining as the outcome of your faith, the salvation of [e]your souls.
10 As to this salvation, the prophets who prophesied of the grace that would come to you made careful searches and inquiries, 11 [f]seeking to know what person or time the Spirit of Christ within them was indicating as He predicted the sufferings of Christ and the glories [g]to follow. 12 It was revealed to them that they were not serving themselves, but you, in these things which now have been announced to you through those who preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven—things into which angels long to [h]look.
Purpose: Today we want to see 3 S in regards to Christian joy in the midst of suffering.
In the midst of suffering…

This week I need to finish preparation for a retreat this weekend that I’m speaking for. It will be on two passages from 1 Peter. The topic will be on being Pilgrims/Sojournors in this world. Its a joint retreat with another church. I’m praying for the retreat to glorify God. If you can, pray for my studies today and Thursday! Been feeling extra tired lately.

Well I slept early Sunday after a tiring day of ministry! So here’s a post that’s later than usual!
Here is an interview/podcast with two brothers that I love. It is from Rooted In Revelation Podcast (Facebook page here). It is a podcast that touch on theology, apologetics and Christian living. This is hosted by Nate Burns.
I wanted to share one of the shows. This is an interview with Arno Fourie. I’m encouraged to see Arno have an evangelistic zeal and courage and his applied apologetics all over social media. If you are wondering about his accent, he’s a South African living in Australia. That’s pretty cool!
What was the topic? The two had a conversation about secular thought and where it leads.

The news the last few days that have grabbed my attention is the Taliban take over of Afghanistan including entering into its Capital. I think its safe to say it caught the US and the world by surprise. The United States is trying to evacuate its citizens and have sent thousands of Marines and Army soldiers to help with that.
These appear to be the first footage of the Marines arriving (I haven’t found anything else and I put some effort searching):
There’s always a certain bounce with Marines’ movement. As I looked I can’t help but to think about how 70 percent of enlisted marines are 24 and younger with the bulk joining right out of high school which means most of these Marines are young enough to be the sons of the first wave of Marines that entered Afghanistan nearly 20 years ago.
