For God’s Sake: Preach the Word
A few weeks ago, I celebrated one more birthday by adding another notch to my belt. You see, each year on my birthday, my one request of my wife is that she prepare for me an obscene quantity of my favorite food – spaghetti with a cheesy bechamel sauce. My request always presents a moral dilemma for her, pitting her love for me against her concern for my health; that dish would be high on any cardiologist’s list of foods to avoid.

Prepare for heaven, don’t populate hell
Is anybody wondering what God’s thoughts are about Hamas’ inhumanity to man in this “wicked and perverse” generation? Of course, some are, in light of Biblical warnings of wars and rumors of wars occurring. Some know, most don’t that nothing needs to happen before the rapture, the next event on God’s calendar.

Ray Eddington has a thick Tennessee drawl and a sensibility that pairs well with a solid work ethic and growing reputation as a practical problem solver.
But his common sense failed him last month when he suggested keeping all Santa Rosa County Board of County Commissioner meetings in Milton, the county seat.

Chasing competitive balance is a loss cause. It’s like running a cross-country race and never getting to the finish line. Or chasing that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. You won’t ever find it.
And yet, as usual, our high school association in the state of Florida likes to change the playoff format more than it changes socks.

For God’s Sake: Worship God in spirit and in truth
Every week for the past 35 years of ministry, I have thought about what is essential in corporate worship.
I am a musician, and when I came to faith in Christ in a small, south Florida church, I naturally volunteered to be in the choir.

When I saw the news that Georgia had approved NIL for high school athletes, my immediate thought was Florida has to be next.
I know the Sunshine State has long opposed moving into the world of NIL for high school athletes, but with a neighboring state opting to go all in, the pressure is really on for Florida to do the same.
