Who can name the Book and chapter of this, without looking it up! Extra credit for sharing your thoughts on what the story/parable is about.

Never heard of this ministry before, but the interview parts of this short video was kind of cool to watch.

11 years ago today, Kirk M (@blessings2you) published what I have always thought was one of the all-time best blogs published here at CB: What True Christianity Is Not.
Before looking into the subject of what true Christianity really is, I feel it necessary to establish what Christianity is NOT: 1. A religion. Christianity is a faith, and contrary to Webster and other language specialists, there is a profound...

For any of you that are in the USA and are interested in how the folks in politics are when it comes to their religious faith.

Faith on the Hill: The religious composition of the 116th Congress
The new, 116th Congress includes the first two Muslim women ever to serve in the House of Representatives, and is, overall, slightly more religiously diverse than the prior Congress.

Thanks to many of you, the CB ministry brought in $11,138 in 2018. Add in ~$400 from advertisements, and subtract the 8% of fees that I have to deal with, and that puts it around $10,500 for the year. That averages out to a monthly income of $875. Given that CB is my only source of income, I want to say a huge thank you to all that have supported the CB ministry, and myself, in 2018. Looking forward to a greater 2019!

It sure would be great if we reached our financial goal for this, the last month of the 2018 year! We have only done it once this year, way back in February. Right now we need another $426 to reach our goal.

And then one day you learn that the song '12 Days of Christmas' actually STARTS on Christmas day, rather than ends on Christmas day!

After the miraculous catch of fish, Christ calls forth his disciples to become "fishers of men" (Matthew 4:19)
And he said to them, "Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men."
As we near the end of the year, find a way to become a fisher!

Thought a few of you might enjoy this prophetic word given by John Kilpatrick.
If you are not familiar with Kilpatrick, he was the lead pastor of the church where the Brownsville Revival took place, widely considered the largest revival of our generation in America, which started back in 1995, and included evangelist Steve Hill and worship director Lindell Cooley.

Yesterday I went rummaging through my kitchen and fridge for food. I found one can of soup, two packages of oatmeal, some peanut butter, and one stick of butter. I stepped on the scale and was 118 pounds (53kg), ouch! Despite that, I have felt blessed by those who have given so faithfulfully to CB this year. It blesses my heart the kindness of people who have never meet me. On this Thanksgiving Day, here in America, yesterday, I was a grateful man, for the kindness and faith of others.

Well, here is something to think about... the use of colons in publication titles.
