A heavy heart | My Two Cents
https://hiskidjv.wordpress.com/2016/11/23/a-heavy-heart
Wow, I really haven’t written anything since last Christmas? Guess I’ve been busy. The cognitive (and spiritual) dissonance is real and is usually only resolved by realizing precisely how messed up I really am. It’s hard to tell some days. And probably every day is a mixture of both, quite probably with a majority of the latter. Hear upon the Great Bema? At the same time as it could easily be poetic to remember how much influence I have in the life of another person that I have the responsibility to rais...

Ambassadors for Christ | My Two Cents
https://hiskidjv.wordpress.com/2014/10/05/ambassadors-for-christ
In 2 Corinthians 5. The concept itself- that so many think of their evangelism primarily through the lens of public image- is worth a long pause and hefty consideration. Is this what ambassadorship means as God intends it? Surely God has revealed a bit of concern about His public image in a variety of ways. Since humans are made in His “ image. Have you ever seen (or been) a junior high kid who’s image was bad and couldn’t seem to fix it? I know I tend to gravitate toward the latter and I know a whole lo...

Failure is an (excellent?) option | My Two Cents
https://hiskidjv.wordpress.com/2015/01/04/failure-is-an-excellent-option
Failure is an (excellent? I’m not sure I need to know. If God wants to shake it from you, He’ll shake it from you (as long as you’re not totally closed to His leading), but otherwise it is all an endurance challenge. And since in either case, you’re failing, what’s the difference really? So just keep on learning and growing. And thank God for awesome opportunities to learn about things way above your current ability, wisdom, and strength. Can two teams win the Super Bowl this year? 6 Specific plans. ...

Two turtle doves… | My Two Cents
https://hiskidjv.wordpress.com/2015/12/26/two-turtle-doves
Two turtle doves…. I know it’s a little late in coming, but here’s my official Christmas reflection for you all. Hopefully it will strengthen you as you begin looking beyond the 25th. It may help that the nature of my reflection has everything to do with the broader contextual understanding of the Nativity celebration in our hearts and lives. In what way does our remembrance of this child that is born bring life and joy to our hearts? Battle and the Beast. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. What is “My Tw...

Why fast? | My Two Cents
https://hiskidjv.wordpress.com/2014/04/06/why-fast-2
A month or so ago, as Lent was beginning, I was challenged with some genuine criticism and curiosity into the reason behind it all. Didn’t Jesus come and die so that we don’t have to go through all that? Is this some sort of extra rule just so that we can feel more “ruley” about ourselves? Really, what’s the rationality, the motive, the purpose of fasting? In no particular order other than off the top of my head:. On food instead of less, we are doing it wrong. Thy kingdom come….

Jacob | My Two Cents
https://hiskidjv.wordpress.com/author/hiskidjv
I suppose, not having become thoroughly acquainted with much of the writing of the greatest and most saintly men to have walked the earth sort of puts a damper on how much credence can be given to any following notions I share, but here I go anyway. Wow, I really haven’t written anything since last Christmas? Guess I’ve been busy.
