I talked to a man yesterday who said he was a Christian and that he knew that based on the fact that he is a good person. I have to admit that’s the hardest argument for me to combat. Scripture says, “There is none that does good, no not one” but there are those who [...]
Then I met the Master. Now I belong to Him. Really? Tell me about Him. Is he gentle or rough? Kind or fierce? Why did you choose to follow Him, or are you following Him? Maybe you were wholehearted starting out but after a while you didn’t see the point. After all, He doesn’t expect [...]

Over the weekend, I launched a new section of the site, Documents – http://www.southerngospelblog.com/documents/. The initial concept is to make available some of the research documents I’d prepared to help with my commentary here, but perhaps over time the concept will grow to include other interesting and useful content.
Today I begin yet another year on this earth. When I think about it, it doesn’t seem like long ago that I was a teenager yet a lot of years and miles have gone by since then. Birthdays are a great time to look back at life and thank God where He brought me from [...]
