1 Samuel 18:1-12

Love them?

My friend, may I ask you a question? While it seems natural to want to crush those who have crushed you, does God leave a place in His Word for us to do that? Or has He has reserved judgement for Him-self and not for us? My friend, Life’s a story, welcome to This Passing Day. I'm Mark Brunner. “In a world where we seek only kindness and peace there is, perhaps, nothing more difficult to deal with on a daily basis than those who seek to destroy that peace and blunt that kindne

Mark 4:38-40

God above?

My friend, may I ask you a question? When the storms of life break out suddenly and we’re terrified by the wind and rain of misfortune, is all we need to do is to look up and believe that Jesus walks the path of concern and comfort--right above us, day and night? My friend, Life’s a story, welcome to This Passing Day. I'm Mark Brunner. “There’s no need to fear; Underdog is here!” And that signaled the appearance of the namby little, caped super-dog that put evil to flight and

-Job 1:1

Now?

My friend, may I ask you a question? Are you a worrier like me? Don’t you feel bad if you believe that you are? According to estimates by the American Society of Psychology, nearly two out of four adults in America today are chronic worriers. Why do we worry about everything from the small to the large? My friend, Life’s a story, welcome to This Passing Day. I'm Mark Brunner. Are you a worrier like me? Don’t feel bad if you believe that you are. According to estimates by the

Hebrews 6: 9-12

Hope fitness?

My friend, may I ask you a question? Doesn’t it seem that sometimes life and its up’s and down’s makes it hard for us to stay in the kind of emotional and spiritual shape that we need to be in? And, like the gifted athlete who is tempted from time to time to coast, so do we? My friend, Life’s a story, welcome to This Passing Day. I'm Mark Brunner. Nothing makes an athlete more complete than a training program that includes constant conditioning and the encouragement of his c

-Mark 5: 35-43

The right carry?

My friend, may I ask you a question? In the midst of crisis hope is often the first thing to take a walk. Like fickle friends who only hangs around when they are being served and then take a hike when called upon to serve, hope is often not there when we need it the most. Why is that? My friend, Life’s a story, welcome to This Passing Day. I'm Mark Brunner. In the midst of crisis hope is often the first thing to take a walk. Like fickle friends who only hangs around when they

Job 4:7-8

Really?

My friend, may I ask you a question? When you think about it, why is the Bible such an integral part of all of our lives, even those of whom despise it; or, in the very least, disdain it? Could it be that they have no clue that despite their disdain for God’s Word, there is no way they can avoid it or deny it? My friend, Life’s a story, welcome to This Passing Day. I'm Mark Brunner. “It’s like the law of the Medes and Persians. There’s just no way you’re ever going to make a

1 Thessalonians 5:9

Encourager?

My friend, may I ask you a question? When we see others in need of the joy that we share because we are saved, washed in the blood of the Lamb, what is our reaction? Do we rush to their aid with words of hope? Or, do we silently pass by in the hope that someone else will lend that comfort? My friend, Life’s a story, welcome to This Passing Day. I'm Mark Brunner. When we see others in need of the joy that we share because we are saved, washed in the blood of the Lamb, what is

Job 33: 1-33

Not our own?

My friend, may I ask you a question? We often recite these words, “I believe in God the Father Almighty, creator of Heaven and earth.” Yet, do we truly grasp the importance of what we are saying? Do we realize that owe our lives to God; they are not our own? My friend, Life’s a story, welcome to This Passing Day. I'm Mark Brunner. We live in a time where the “body beautiful” is, perhaps, more important than ever. Not being physically fit risks social rejection. Our children a

1 Peter 3: 13-22

Girding?

My friend, may I ask you a question? If you don’t want people throwing rocks at you, do you need to make sure that their supply of rocks is limited in the first place? Could it be that the sooner they run out of ammunition, the sooner you can stop being on the defensive and start taking the offensive? My friend, Life’s a story, welcome to This Passing Day. I'm Mark Brunner. If you don’t want to be shot at, don’t supply your enemies with the ammunition! Sounds like pretty simp

Proverbs 9: 7-10

Thank you?

My friend, may I ask you a question? Is it would be better to be meek and withdrawing when others criticize us no matter the situation? In fact, if you are one of those people who are not “quick on the trigger” when others start shooting criticism your way, are you blessed? My friend, Life’s a story, welcome to This Passing Day. I'm Mark Brunner. I wish I had thought of that? How often have you found yourself thinking that you had wished you had been quicker with a response,
