A Missionary's Musings on Spiritual Matters

The Whole Armor of God (Part 2)

For this reason, take up the full armor of God so that you may be able to stand your ground on the evil day, and having done everything, to stand.

The Preacher and the Politician

This article is adapted from my notes for a recent class I taught at church in our series working through the book of Acts. Accordingly, this material will be a little more conversational, like I’m talking to the class, and not as much my usual more academically-oriented treatise…

Jason Salyer ~ On Three

The Puritan malcontents who ran the area had long chafed at any…

You Don’t Have to Master Everything -Know What You Choose to Learn

We’re living in a time where information is everywhere, all at once. Your phone pings you with war updates before you’ve had breakfast.
