Perryism – God does not want you to come over to His house on Sunday before the game; God wants to move in and make your house His house.

1 Samuel 1 – Praying through the Bible #82 – A Prayer of Emptiness and Dedication
PHall | August 30, 2013
There is an emptiness that consumes. When this emptiness is God absent, we can hunger and thirst after righteousness and be filled. When an unhealthy emptiness is like a black hole, it swallows everything around it into non-existence. Sometimes the pressure is self-inflicted, at times forced on us by family; even society can be guilty […]
Perryism – The atmosphere of a congregation is like the humidity in the air. It can’t always be seen but it can always be felt.

Ruth 1:16-17 – Praying through the Bible #81 – A Prayer that is a Family Promise
PHall | August 29, 2013
Did you hear the joke about the mother-in-law? Apparently, neither did Ruth. In the little book bearing her name, there are no recorded prayers; but there is a prayer-like promise invoking God’s name. The story of Ruth is not about Ruth. The focus is not a love story between the progenitors of David, Ruth and […]

Judges 21 – Praying through the Bible #80 – A Prayer that is Ignored
PHall | August 28, 2013
Does God ever ignore prayers? Get ready to shake your head in disbelief at how quickly stupidity catches up to those living a repeating cycle of self-made idiocy by doing what is right in their own eyes (Judges 21.25). Righteousness and rage, vengeance and vows make for unpredictable results and unthought-of realities. Israel is rightfully […]
Perryism – Pride brings us down by lifting us up. God lifts us up by bringing us down.

Judges 19-20 – Praying through the Bible #79 – A Prayer of Mutual Destruction
PHall | August 27, 2013
In the 70’s, the United States and the Soviet Union got MAD. They formed a treaty of Mutual Assured Destruction (MAD). Armed with nuclear weapons, each nation could completely destroy the other. In war, there would be no victory, no peace, just retaliation and annihilation. Oddly, the goal was peace. Oddly, this reminds me of […]
Judges 17-18 – Praying through the Bible #78 – A Prayer that Seemed Right
PHall | August 26, 2013
The story begins in Ephraim where Micah steals 1,100 silver pieces from his mother, confesses, she praises him, then gives him back the silver, consecrates it to God, and together they make an idol. Then the son installs his non-Levite son as priest (Judges 17.1-5). It seemed like the right thing to do. Understand, this […]
