These may not be all the verses on provision… but they are ones we need to meditate on, study in context and pray about implementing in our lives…. Nehemiah 6:9? They were all trying to frighten us, thinking, “Their hands will get too weak for the work, and it will not be completed.” But I prayed, “Now strengthen my hands.” 1 Kings 17:13-16 ?Then Elijah said to her, “Do not fear; go, do as you have said, but make me [...] Read more »
Training and Encouragement Will Be More Structured on RevTrev.com in 2012.

This has been one of those kinds of weeks. I’m not discouraged, but more amazed at the emerging pattern. I have a muslim who calls himself a cleric who wants to debate me on Twitter. I have a reader who keeps emailing me arguments from 1800 years ago who I sense wants me to convert to gnosticism. I’ve told them both, “I wasn’t argued to the faith I have, I can’t be argued from it.” I’ve never really seen debates [...] Read more »
These are questions I need a lot more time to answer fully but let’s start with the basics right now. How are we to do everything we are to do? Let me know what you think in the comments.

Do I only need to forgive myself if I have taken advantage of others?
I so enjoy the question I get by email, in comments and in the Forum. Here’s one from a comment I needed more space to continue. Question: Do you agree that I only need to forgive myself if I have taken advantage of others? Answer: Peter, I think that’s a start, but in most cases we have to go further.
