Amway

By Martin Schmaltz / 3 weeks ago

Years ago when my wife and I were newlyweds, we got involved in the Amway craze. I see your head nodding – you did too! Well, one of their encouragements was that you did not have to sell the products; they sold themselves, as you demonstrated their effectiveness. I remember removing shoe polish, waterproofing handkerchiefs […]

Plates

By Martin Schmaltz / last month

Plates As a kid growing up, I remember seeing the juggler who would spin plates. They would place an individual plate on a thin stick and spin it; then repeat this process over and over. Periodically they had to return to a previous plate and give it an extra spin to keep them from falling […]

Expecting

By Martin Schmaltz / 7 months ago

Do We Have Expectations or Are We Expecting?

Many will define it in the context of a denomination.  Some will speak about a purpose of “saving” the “lost” and preparing ourselves for an eternity in heaven.

Proof

By Martin Schmaltz / 9 months ago

In our previous post “So You Think You’re Apostolic” we discussed that apostolic means being sent as the representative of Jesus Christ to reveal His kingdom.
