Don’t Chuck Your Muck In My Dustbin – The Doug Ellingsworth Blog
http://dougellingsworth.com/dont-chuck-your-muck-in-my-dustbin
Don’t Chuck Your Muck In My Dustbin. June 4, 2015. It’s a verse from the old children’s song. Seven Bottles of Pop. My kids played and replayed that tape until I prayed it would dissolve inside the player. It didn’t. I’m not sure what the muck somebody didn’t want chucked in their dustbin was that inspired this little tune, but I’m getting more than just a little tired of all the muck being spewed at me by every broadcasting means known to man. Don’t chuck that muck in my dustbin. Just because a Supreme ...

Four Lessons From The Flag Debate – The Doug Ellingsworth Blog
http://dougellingsworth.com/four-lessons-from-the-flag-debate
Four Lessons From The Flag Debate. June 24, 2015. It’s been a chaotic and interesting week. We witnessed the senseless slaughter of nine Americans at a worship service in South Carolina. We watched as their families and community showed us how to come together and push through unspeakable sorrow with dignity, class, and faith. I watched as churches in my community responded in different ways to threats they received to “shoot them up! 8221; in retaliation for what occurred in South Carolina. As a leader,...

The Blessing In The Spanking. August 5, 2015. Having survived being spanked by my parents, grandparents, and a school teacher or two, I stand as a strong proponent of spanking. Through the years, I’ve been to many seminars and have taken lots of courses on disciplining children. Most who oppose spanking include hitting, beating, slapping, kicking, and all kinds of abuse in the broad definition of the term. Here are a few reasons why child training is so important. 4 It shows a child where to thrive. ...

From A Dad To His Pastor – The Doug Ellingsworth Blog
http://dougellingsworth.com/from-a-dad-to-his-pastor
From A Dad To His Pastor. July 17, 2015. I hope, Pastor, that you will not feel that I am being disrespectful by sending you this note. The truth is, if I didn’t have confidence and trust in your life and ministry, I wouldn’t bother to say anything. But because I do trust you, and because the Bible makes it plain that I need a pastor, I feel compelled to write. So, I want, as a dad, to talk to you from my heart. I may be misunderstood or you may even get angry with me, but that’s okay. I...I really do...

You Gotta Read The Old Testament! – The Doug Ellingsworth Blog
http://dougellingsworth.com/you-gotta-read-the-old-testament
You Gotta Read The Old Testament! July 20, 2015. You hear it occasionally. Somebody explaining that, since we live under the New Testament covenant, the only purpose the Old Testament serves is to help us understand history and to supply us with stories of faith. They point out that we no longer serve under the rules of the Law, so none of that is necessary for the Church to know. That wasn’t the opinion of the first church leaders. Remember Job’s story? When Job declared how he wanted to plead his case ...

http://dougellingsworth.com/page/6
April 17, 2015. Boy, all the books I would write if I could afford to write full-time! I’ve told my wife a hundred times, “If I could only spend one month in a little house on the beach, I could complete all these writing projects I’ve started.” She’s never offered to send me or help me find the ideal spot. It’s like nobody can see the literary masterpieces trapped in my soul begging for release. Even more discouraging, the world doesn’t seem to care if they ever get set free. Continue Reading ».
