Instructing and encouraging you to live your life as a disciple of Jesus

In the Blink of an Eye

January 5, 2023 by Tim Sherfy

Before we begin, let me state a couple of things this article is not. It is not a commentary on the Covid mRNA shot. Intelligent people can and should look at all the research and findings to make their own decision on that. You don’t need me, the media, celebrities, or the government to tell you what to think or believe about such things. It is also not in any way to express medical opinions which I am eminently not qualified to discuss.

What I do want to talk about is the alarming number of otherwise healthy people who are dying suddenly. For our discussion, the cause of their death is irrelevant. As followers of Jesus, what should concern us is how many people, in the blink of an eye, are finding themselves in eternal Hell.

Born to Die

December 22, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

The birth of Christ is indeed worthy of celebration. It marks the moment God stepped into history to make a way for the salvation of humanity. We rejoice and sing majestic carols to the King of Kings, and marvel at the miracle of His birth and the subsequent sinless life He led. But perhaps because of all the pageantry in our celebrations, we overlook that while the birth of Christ was glorious, the fact is Jesus was born to die.

His life on earth would last a scant thirty-three years. Three decades after marveling at His birth, His mother would mourn His death. Jesus came so we might live, but the only way to give us that life would cost Him His own.

Every Moment Holy

December 15, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

Someone recently gave me a book titled, “Every Moment Holy”. I haven’t had the chance to read it, but the title struck me. To see every moment as holy is our responsibility as worshippers of the One true God. To live every moment holy is the calling on every life that proclaims Jesus Christ as Lord. Our attitude each day should be to see God’s holiness in every moment of the day and to observe how He constantly reveals His glory in the world around us.

There is so much sin and darkness, but God’s holiness can still be found by those who seek Him. As we seek His glory, we bring Him glory by ordering our steps so that everything we think, say, and do is holy and pleasing to our King.

Milquetoast Christianity

December 12, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

A milquetoast Christianity has infected our churches and our faith. We have been lulled to sleep by decades of compromise. What passes for Christianity today seems normal to us and no cause for alarm. Brothers and sisters, the house is on fire and everyone is sleeping through it. We do the things the world does, talk the way the world talks, and pursue the same things those without Christ pursue.

We are called to live differently from those around us, to be a sacred priesthood (1 Peter 2:9). It is obvious we are not fulfilling our call. We have surrendered the fight in favor of obtaining the things of this world and the lusts of our flesh. The worst part is, most of us are so numb we don’t even know it. The battle is lost and we are oblivious to the tragedy.

Tell Everyone

November 28, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

Does the fact so many don’t know Jesus break your heart? Every morning when I pray, I bring an ever-growing list of names before the Lord. So many of my family and friends do not know Jesus as their Savior. The older I get, the more devastating this becomes. The number of people I know who don’t know Jesus convicts me that I’m not doing enough.

What is it about my life that is not compelling enough for them to want Jesus? I know it is the work of the Holy Spirit to convict a person, and I should not take this all on myself. Yet the command of our Lord to go and tell everyone about Him looms large in my conscience as I feel the weight of my responsibility.
