New Years…something

So for Christmas I got an MP3 player (yay Aunt Casi!) and my wife got an iPod.  A good friend of mine told me that we’d need at least 8 gig of memory to keep ourselves interested, but I realized that we’re the kind of people that really chew on an artist or a musical [...]

Cosmic Christmas

This is an exerpt from from a book we read each year at our house with friends and family present.  In the midst of this season that is supposed to draw us to Jesus, it seems to do an awfully good job of pulling us away.  Enjoy the words of Max Lucado from Cosmic Christmas, and [...]

Life and times of Wakeboard Church

What a rocking season of our lives right now.  I’m not just talking about Christmas either.  Yes, I still call it Christmas.   God is tweaking and moving and working in our lives in cool little ways.  There’s way too much talk about here now (What I started to write about it has turned into a [...]

The Weight of It All

Or should I say, “the glory of it all”? In either case it’s exciting to be in the middle of what God is doing.
I remember a few years ago my boat left us stranded in the middle of the lake. It has only done that once actually. Every single time I’ve [...]

Give Thanks

We throw that around pretty easily each year.  I know I do, “Happy Thankgiving”, “Happy Thanksgiving”. 
 We truly have so much to be thankful for.  The kids that we have.  The little miracles that they are.  Having jobs to go to that put good food on the table.  Maybe we don’t even eat on a table, [...]

God is invisible

This week we discuss God’s invisibility.  It can be defined as follows:  God’s invisibility means that God’s total essence, all of his spiritual being, will never be able to be seen by us, yet God still shows himself to us through visible, created things. 
I’ve had a difficult time understanding the implications of God being [...]

God’s Knowledge

Wakeboard Church June 14, 2007
 
This week we discuss God’s Omnipotence or God’s Knowledge
 
Defined: God fully knows himself and all things actual and possible in one simple and eternal act.
 
God is “perfect in knowledge” (Job 37:16)
 
God “knows everything” (1 John 3:20)
 
“For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God.  For what person knows a man’s [...]

Interesting…

I was pretty pumped when at the end of Transgression the screen went blank and there was a Bible verse.
Isaiah 53:5.  It says this:
But He was pierced through for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him, and by His scourging we are healed.
Transgression means a violation of the law, or [...]

God is Spirit

Wakeboard Church May 17th
God is Spirit
 
An attribute describing God’s being. 
 Spirituality – God’s spirituality means that God exists as a being that is not made of any matter, has no parts or dimensions, is unable to be perceived by our bodily senses, and is more excellent than any other kind of existence. 
John 4:24 – “God [...]

God’s Holiness

Holiness – God’s holiness means that he is separated from sin and devoted to seeking his own honor.
 
Exodus 26:33 – “and the veil shall separate for you the holy place from the most holy”
 
The Sabbath day was made holy because it was set apart from the ordinary activities of the world and dedicated to [...]
