  • Proof You Matter: Look at Tamar

    @carol_mcclain   Odd to many, I love the genealogies of the Bible. In them, we find a rich history. I cannot breeze through them because each name tells a story that takes time to understand in order to uncover the depth of meaning. You matter. You’re not a name in a list of names, just another …[ read more ]

    @carol_mcclain “The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man listens to advice” Proverbs 12:15. My good friend and I chatted in a coffee shop. The usual topics filtered through our chatter … supply chain issues, covid 19, bad politicians, sucky people. We were sure to avoid the theological idea …[ read more ]

  • Why Trust God

    @carol_mcclain Why do I love roller coasters?   They’re safe. They’re designed by engineers who know (not people like me who would have a hard time engineering a box). They’re tested so no one would be hurt. Thousands of people have ridden the ride before me. They take me places I could never go on …[ read more ]

    @carol_mcclain [3] And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. [4] Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 18: 3-4 Ever since my teen years–eons ago–I’ve …[ read more ]

    @carol_mcclain A lifetime fled without my ever having glimpsed a comet. In 1973 Kahoutec visited our skies when I lived in New York City. With the city’s manmade display of lights, my chances of seeing Kahoutec were non-existent. Actually, the city had little to do with my ability to witness the comet. I was too …[ read more ]

    • Ten Ways to be Filled with the Holy Spirit

        @carol_mcclain "Don't be drunk with wine, be filled with the Spirit!" 1 Cor.5:18 According to John Piper, how do we get drunk with wine? We drink it. Lots of it. So how do we get drunk with the Holy Spirit? Immerse yourself in God. Drink in lots of Him. Read your Scriptures. Pray. Sing Psalms and hymns and contemporary Christian music. Listen to edifying Christian stations. Avoid our entertainment that celebrates sinful behavior--alcohol, sex, foul language. Hang out with practicing, like-minded Christians. Go to church. Take notes on the sermon. Look around this world and see the glory God… ...[ full story ]
