Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her 26 to make her holy, cleansing[b] her by the washing with water through the word, 27 and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. 28 I ..read more

Lots of information on the ‘net about a so-called association of Bill Gothard with John MacArthur, but any who knows much about Gothard should know it’s a lie. A lengthy article shows where this “gossip” came from and the misrepresentations of what’s in a photo. Examples of bad interpretations of Scripture by various Church Fathers A great review of Debi Pearl’s new book, Created to Be His Help Meet. You can bet she twists scripture into pretzels. While the major topic of this post is Nancy Pelosi’s violation of Catholic tenets, it really has good information about Christian doctrines whic ..read more

 MacLellan Bagpipes posted this poem on Facebook. May my pipes be a gift I will lift to the Lord. ​ A grace note of praise in every lyric and chord. ​ May my tune be a prayer of renewal and light. ​ May my tune be a beacon which shines through the night. ​ And even when loss and grief come along ​ I'll have faith in the Lord and play him a TUNE. I have felt this way since I first began going to church after learning the pipes.  The first hymn I learned in 1983 because it was a band tune, and which every piper is expected to know: Amazing Grace. Going Home was the next band tune co ..read more

I’ve been quite busy lately with practicing my pipes and playing for events. Added to that have been too many doctor visits.  Meanwhile, my collection of links for articles I feel important to be shared just kept piling up. So this is a long post, but there are some good articles for edification and many for learning what is going on with false teachers/teachings. Starting off, here is another thought-provoking article about the so-called revival at Asbury. A saying that sounds pious but isn’t- “Let Go and Let God” Here’san interesting article about the translation of the Greek w ..read more
