Mark 16:16 – An Illustration
PHall | March 13, 2014
The bad news is I have arthritis in my back. The good news is there is medicine. If I believe the doctor I will take the medicine and be well. If I don’t believe the doctor I will suffer. Now would any argue I am earning my health by following orders? Or that all I […]

2 Kings 19:15-19 – Praying through the Bible #120 – A Prayer of Desperation
PHall | March 13, 2014
Augustine advised, “Pray as though everything depended on God. Work as though everything depended on you.” A Chimney Corner Scripture advises, “God helps those who help themselves.” After good and bad works, after praising God, plundering the temple, paying off Sennacherib, seeking an alliance with Egypt, rebuilding the wall, building a water tunnel, asking Isaiah […]
Perryism – If there are no absolutes and we can assign our own meaning to reality then I choose to believe that there are absolutes and we cannot assign our own meaning to reality.

Acts 20:35 – More Blessed to Give Than To Receive
PHall | March 6, 2014
Throughout Acts 20:18-35 is the concept that grace involves giving. Paul reminds the elders, “In every way I’ve shown you that by laboring like this, it is necessary to help the weak…” (20:35). Paul’s preaching without pay is an analogy of grace. Paul gives freely the message of grace because Jesus gave freely of His […]
Acts 8:3 – Saul the Jihadist?
PHall | March 6, 2014
If Saul of Tarsus were alive today, he would be committing jihad in the name of Yahweh (Jn.16:2; Act 8:3). And if he were converted today, we would feel the same way about him as the disciples in Jerusalem (Acts 9:26). Grace not only converts, Grace accepts those converted. Acts 8:1 (HCSB) Saul agreed with putting […]
Psalm 139 – Reading Minds
PHall | March 6, 2014
How amazing is God’s love? How many friends would we have lost; how many jobs would we have been fired from; how many people would have slapped or punched us; how many times would our spouse have been angry with us…if anyone and everyone could read our minds and know all our thoughts? And yet […]
2 Kings 19:1-7 – Praying through the Bible – Feeling Inadequate to Pray
PHall | March 6, 2014
Pinocchio is a beloved story, at least Disney’s version. I doubt many are familiar with the original; Pinocchio kills the nagging cricket with a hammer. Why do we love Disney’s version? It’s a tale of redemption. It is a whale of a tale. Wood I lie to you! Like that fictional morality tale, Jerusalem’s Deliverance […]
