Praying Our Way to A Healthy Church – Praying 1 Thessalonians 1:5 – What A Partnership
PHall | August 21, 2020
“because our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power, in the Holy Spirit, and with full assurance….” (CSB’17 1 Thessalonians 1:5). God’s good news came in: words (but more than human words), power, the Holy Spirit, and assurance. God’s speakers repeat God’s words, with God providing divine power, the […]
Offended vs Thankful

Offended vs. ThankfulWhen I go to a restaurant, often I ask for a gluten-free menu or look for marked options on the regular menu. Sometimes I have to look at an allergy menu which is far more info than I want or need! If they have a gluten-free hamburger bun then I’m in West Virginia […]
If You Focus Only On Jesus Being
PHall | August 18, 2020
If you focus only on:1. Jesus being Savior, then you miss His authority.2. Jesus being God, then you miss His mercy.3. Jesus being Lord, then you miss His grace.4. Jesus being human, then you miss His divinity.5. Jesus being King, then you miss His servanthood.6. Jesus being Jewish, then you miss His power.7. Jesus being […]
Luke 21:1-4 – He’s Still Watching
PHall | August 3, 2020
We have all had it happen to us. For some inexplicable reason, we tangibly “feel” that which has no texture and no form. Never does it touch us, and yet inexplicably we can “feel” it. It’s presence is so powerful, amazingly it can wake us from a sound sleep minus any noise, nor even a […]
Praying 1 Thessalonians 1:1 – People
PHall | July 31, 2020
Around us are things and people we have become so accustomed to, that we stop noticing – and others have stopped paying attention to us. I’ve learned I also do that with the opening lines of biblical letters: “Let’s ignore that and get to the good stuff”. What’s so important about the introductions? People! People […]
Praying 1 Thessalonians 1:1 – Cultural Unity
PHall | July 31, 2020
“Yo. Sup. What up. Hey. Hello. How are you. Grace. Peace.”Our society is so divided that “cultural appropriation” is considered a cardinal sin, theft even, and racist. A different approach to cultural appropriation is seen in the many introductions of Paul in his epistles. This includes 1 Thessalonians 1:1. Greeting someone by saying “Grace” was […]

Bookends of Genesis
PHall | July 29, 2020
Bookends of Genesis: Emptiness then blessings in 7 days; 7 years of blessings then 7 years famine (emptiness) Adam and Eve placed inside Eden and then expelled; Israel outside of Egypt and then placed in Egypt. Creation of sun, moon, and stars to rule (1); Joseph dreams of sun, moon, and stars as ruling (37). […]
Without One Another
PHall | July 28, 2020
Without each other we are incomplete. I don’t know anyone who prefers to be without all their body parts. Did that sentence strike you as strange?Read carefully, we see Paul often connects the role of women and men, the differing gifts of all believers, to the one body of Christ which is thematically connected to […]
