Daily Dose 30: Time Cycles

Here is where to begin reading Daily Dose 21-30 in order.

Time Cycles Linked to Creation

The Lord built a variety of time cycles into life, many of which are linked to the physical creation. From one day to the next is marked by the sun. One full moon to the next approximates a month. The season cycle, the crop cycle, the aging cycle, the childbearing cycle, and the recurring physical need to eat and sleep, are examples of time cycles directly linked to the way the physical world and people were created.

Daily Dose 29: Shelving Values and Priorities

If you have been dabbling in the priority gathering experiment, several little lists may be piled in front of you by now: verses, responsibilities, Titus 2 priorities, dreams you were brave enough to commit to paper, answers to long-range questions. Now what? Well, it’s just about time to box them up, set them on the shelf, and forget about them for awhile, that’s what!  Read more

Daily Dose 28: The Keys 4: Key Priorities for Women

Titus 2: 3-5 is such an intriguing passage.

  • First, the words are intended to inform church leaders about God’s way women would make a powerful spiritual impact on the church and, ultimately, the world. The church leadership was to facilitate its happening.
  • Second, it provides all women long-range priorities since the challenges are not for a particular season of womanhood, but for all women to aspire to, achieving their prime contributions to Christ’s Cause when older.
  • Third, many of the words used in the passage are used nowhere else in the New Testament. Truly, women were being given unique responsibilities as part of Christ’s cause.
  • Fourth, while the passage is home-centered, it is not home-bound; the world would be impacted by the work product He has in mind.
  • Fifth, the outline is bursting with creative options to bring the goals to fruition. What is there not to like? Read more

Daily Dose 27: The Keys 3: Key Shared Priorities

This is the key that provides some much needed balance to all the talk about differing roles for males and females because somewhere along the biblical teaching line, the nuanced balance point that men, women, and children have a long list of mutually compatible responsibilities to fulfill successfully their biblical home mission was lost in the discussion, leaving only the cavernous divide of the differences in outlook and expectation that has served only to make “understanding” one another seemingly impossible.  Read more

Daily Dose 26: The Keys 2: Key Home Priorities

Little has been more studied, ignored, microscoped, broad-brushed, exalted, mocked, perverted and preserved than the “traditional family unit.” As with any truly important concept, everyone wants their slant on the idea to be the right one. Families work best together, when each member respects what the others do and understands how the tasks/roles interact. Listing what the Bible says about family will help us coordinate home processes better. Read more
