Directly Helping the Poor and Needy #TimCard #Charity365

Posted on September 27, 2017 by Matt

That awkward moment… when you see a panhandler at the intersection as you’re driving your daily commute to and from work. Each and every day, the same man or woman for a few days or weeks at a time, then maybe a different person for a while, there most days of the work week, and most days you hope to avoid them or to avoid eye contact, at the least. A few more intersections, then you’re home free – for one more day…

We Paid Ransom32

Posted on March 19, 2016July 23, 2024 by Matt

We paid Ransom32, the virus malware that encrypts all your files and demands payment within a number of days to recover them, and we got our files back. Ish. From frantic googling, to panicked backup recovery attempts, to resignation and payment, here’s how it went down…

Posted on October 5, 2015October 5, 2015 by Matt

James MacDonald, of Walk in the Word, interrupted his usual preaching series to spend the past two weeks on a study of current events and the prophecies of the bible concerning the last days. With all that’s gone on this year, the Oregon community college mass shooting, Russia in Syria, ISIS torturing and executing Christians…

Silver Chair

Posted on May 29, 2015May 31, 2015 by Matt

Silver Chair, how I hate you! You’re always there, lurking, at the end of every good thing! (Stealing away every pleasure!) Silver Chair, how I hate your lies! You tell me all this wasn’t, while all the while I know it was! It was! (You took it away!) Temptation, come my way! Lured and trapped,…

Posted on August 22, 2014August 22, 2014 by Matt

I was reading Matthew 4 today and came across a fascinating perspective on Jesus’ response to Satan’s temptations. I’ll highlight the passage and follow it with Chuck Smith’s comment on it.

You are loved

Posted on August 24, 2012August 26, 2012 by Matt

This phrase has stuck with me since I first heard a story, via James MacDonald’s Walk in the Word, about a man who doubted its sincerity and then found out just what it meant in action. Harvest Bible Chapel in Rolling Meadows, Illinois, close each service, from what I understand, with the words “you are…
