This was my post last year on September 11. What do you think? How should Christians respond to this anniversary, especially those who live in America where this memory is so visceral and raw? Where were you? What were you thinking on that day? How has your thinking changed over the course of the last…
And the Good News Is: http://t.co/0FdNyEa — Willliam Boyd Grove (@wboydgrove) September 10, 2011 This is a link that Bishop Grove put out there on twitter. I guess we should just be parting happily with our money…… How does this factor into rendering unto Ceasar what is Ceasar’s?
You should not call anybody Rabbi, for one is your instructor, namely the Messiah, and you are all brothers. (Matthew 23:8 Author’s Translation)* For, the grace of God (the salvation of all men) has appeared, training us, so that, renouncing ungodliness and worldly desires, we would live wise, righteous, and godly lives in this present…

Liking jumping into a swimming pool on a hot summer’s day (you know it’s going to be cold), you take a deep breath and in you go. That’s my sentiments as I embark with you on a journey to sincerely try to grasp living under Christ’s “archy.” I really believe it’s only been in the…
I’m jumping into this project with both feet, and I hope you are looking forward to it as well. I believe there is great potential in challenging one another to live in a very practical manner under the absolute authority of Jesus Christ. God has granted me a wide range of experiences that have shaped…
Welcome to Christ’s Archy! My name is Arthur Sido and I am excited to be part of this project. First a little bio for those who don’t know me and perhaps for some who do. I am rapidly charging toward my 40th birthday and I have been a Christian for about the last quarter of…
