Give Thanks

Psalm 30
1I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.

2O LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.

3O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

4Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

5For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.

6And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.

7LORD, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face, and I was troubled.

8I cried to thee, O LORD; and unto the LORD I made supplication.

9What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?

10Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be thou my helper.

11Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;

12To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.

If there anything we won't do? Marketing in the Pews!

Read this story posted on the website of Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, dealing with the marketing of products in churches, titled "Product Placements in the Pews? Micromarketing Meets Megachurches."

A lot of this may sound far fetched, but believe me, it is real.

Product Placement in the Pews?

Warren Continues to Spew His Venom

The expected and yet upsetting reaction of Rick Warren continues, with this latest exchange between the PDL leader and Joseph Farah of World Net Daily.

I sent a short email to Mr. Farah thanking him for his initial story of Warren's treasonous actions and for using the huge forum he has to expose even more the blasphemous actions and intentions of "America's pastor".

You will note the obvious frustration in Warren's response to Farah's column. But I would also like to know why a person who is supposed to be a Christian pastor needs to be a member of the Council of Foreign Relations? Could it be that Warren has an agenda, that includes stirring the globe into a one world religion?

Quote of the Day

'Therefore Adam could have stood if he wished, seeing that he fell solely by his own will. But it was because his will was capable of being bent to one side or the other, and was not given the constancy to persevere, that he fell so easily. Yet his choice of good and evil was free.'
John Calvin

Scripture of the Day

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Romans 12:1,2
