Don't Forget God

The Great Pause

As Pastor Greg transitions into a new position that requires more of his time at present, the So I Was Reading Podcast will temporarily be put on hold until some future date that has yet to be determined. We want to thank everyone who has been listening, and look forward to when we can do this again Until then, may the Lord bless you and keep you; may His face shine upon you; may He turn His face toward you and give you peace.

Is God Even Listening?

Pastor Greg delves into Psalm 5 and talks about David’s trust in the Lord even when it seems – at least at first glance – that God might not actually be paying attention to his plight at the hands of powerful foes. David – like many people today – asks God if he has His ear, but – unlike many today – David shows that he knows the answer to his own question.

Don't Forget God

In this week’s episode, Pastor Greg reflects on King David’s sickness in Psalm 38, and discusses David’s lament that, when deathly ill, he is unable to stand against his enemies – and ultimately those who oppose God - who attack him for no reason. Greg equates the situation to Jesus’ trial and execution, as well as to the attacks we face when we are weakened by sickness, whether physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual.

The Way Is the Way Is the Only Way

In episode 33 of the “So I Was Reading” Podcast, Pastor Greg is told to read Romans 5:1-11 where he is reminded that we have gained peace with God through His Son, our Lord and Savior Jesus. Throughout history, men and women have tried to introduce obstacles to block us from approaching Jesus, our Christ, our Way to the Father, and Greg notes that these obstacles are unbiblical and are actually denounced by scripture which clearly reveals Jesus as the Way to the Father, and that we need no other way to reach Jesus.

Why So Many Choices?

Today’s scripture reading of Deuteronomy 13:1-4 prompts Pastor Greg to consider the questions, If the God of the Bible is really the One, True God, then why are there so many options out there? and then the logical follow up, What exactly does it mean to “love God” anyway?
