Street signs pointing to right way and wrong way

These verses should also inform us that because of our inclination to go wrong, a healthy dose of self-doubt regarding our ability to understand and apply the Bible is advisable. Our first parents displayed the ability to distort what God said and if we are honest, we will admit that we share this with them. It is our nature to hear what we want to hear and avoid the rest.

Working together in ministry – No solo acts

If the entire church body is ministering together in the community, not only will the pastor influence the congregation, the congregation will influence the pastor. When this happens the congregation will “stimulate one another to love and good deeds,” (Hebrews 10:24)

Submit a question or topic to Attempts at Honesty

I would enjoy hearing from you if you have a suggested topic for a post or if you have a question about the Bible or church life.

War Horse

A lesson on the culture war from “War Horse”

Too often, we fight the culture war by digging a trench and lobbing arguments at the enemy trench. Better we meet between the trenches.
