Tasting with the Heart

Posted on September 24, 2015 by ehurst

Your heart understands, but your mind may not know what to make of that wisdom. So the conservatives say they are all about that prosperity for everyone, but that’s just a lie to make sure you sucker up to being … Continue reading →

A Third Consideration

Posted on September 15, 2015 by ehurst

I can’t pretend my future clients will of necessity be any kind of believer. In that previous post where I offered a preview of some of my computer tech support curriculum — CompSec: Compartmentalization — I held back on an … Continue reading →

Divine Infiltration

Posted on August 14, 2015 by ehurst

We serve Christ, whose kingdom is not rooted in this world. At the same time, He has all authority in heaven and earth. Even when there was a nation under covenant to His Father, that nation refused to obey consistently. … Continue reading →

Virtual Communion and Witness

Posted on July 31, 2015 by ehurst

It’s a favorite theme of mine: Don’t take yourself too seriously. We are all for the most part simply along for the ride in God’s revelation of Himself. In His measureless mercy and grace, He allows us to participate in … Continue reading →

Not the Apocalypse, Part 3

Posted on July 30, 2015 by ehurst

It’s personal. You can’t make it otherwise. The very fabric of Creation itself is personal because that’s how God makes it and remakes it every day. It wasn’t made and then allowed to run on without Him; it continues only … Continue reading →

Our Witness

Posted on June 28, 2015 by ehurst

We are aliens. If you follow much of my teaching on this blog, there’s a pretty good chance you would be alien even to Petra, the band who recorded this song more than thirty years ago. They were fairly generic … Continue reading →

Conquest Evangelism

Posted on June 15, 2015 by ehurst

It’s not as if Jesus never used military metaphors. The problem is how we read our militarism back into His comments. Perhaps you may have heard a very popular worship song from the 1980s, “Blow the Trumpet in Zion.” It … Continue reading →

Working Heart

Posted on April 12, 2015 by ehurst

This business of heart-led living is hard work. We aren’t designed for isolation; it’s not what God intended for us. We are hard-wired to live in extended family households. Anything else is hardly living. However, revelation says a covenant family … Continue reading →
