The ONE THING

The random ruminations of a man on the run. The goal is to run this race of life well, encouraging as many as I can along the way, and to eventually meet my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ and thank Him for the trip. (I am also prone to shamelessly brag on my perfect grandchildren.)

The ONE THING for today

When you get there.

Posted on September 30, 2015 by pastorkemp • 2 Comments

Genesis 35:3 (NKJV) 3 Then let us arise and go up to Bethel; and I will make an altar there to God, who answered me in the day of my distress and has been with me in the way which I have gone. File this away for future reference: When you get there, build an altar. … Continue reading →

Too heavy to climb?

Posted on September 29, 2015 by pastorkemp • Leave a comment

Genesis 35:2 (NKJV) And Jacob said to his household and to all who were with him, “Put away the foreign gods that are among you, purify yourselves, and change your garments.“ Perhaps the reason you are not getting any traction with your life is that you were not designed to carry everything you’re trying to … Continue reading →

When you’re ready for a change

Posted on September 28, 2015 by pastorkemp • Leave a comment

Genesis 35:1 (NKJV) Then God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to Bethel and dwell there; and make an altar there to God, who appeared to you when you fled from the face of Esau your brother.” Are you stalled? Is your life in a holding pattern—predictable, routine, going nowhere? Have your dreams been put … Continue reading →

Who’s waiting on you?

Posted on September 25, 2015 by pastorkemp • 1 Comment

John 1:1 (NKJV) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. One of the biggest drainers of joy, hope, and strength is fretting over what might happen. I know this from personal experience—I’m good at this; I can get very creative at figuring out a dozen … Continue reading →

Should you grab a pick & shovel?

Posted on September 24, 2015 by pastorkemp • Leave a comment

Maybe it’s because my forefathers were coalminers that it resonated with me, but recently I read a sermon from the famed early 20th century evangelist, Billy Sunday. In the message he recounted events surrounding the collapsed of a coalmine in Pennsylvania.  As it happened, there were several miners who were trapped in the mine and … Continue reading →

Moving Day

Posted on September 23, 2015 by pastorkemp • 3 Comments

Not a lot to say today, too many problems. Yesterday was moving day—physically moving twenty years of stuff and memories from Fort Mill, SC to Simpsonville, SC. Today is also moving day—physically unpacking all that stuff and memories and trying to find a place for them and turn someone else’s house into our home. Wow, … Continue reading →

How old are you?

Posted on September 22, 2015 by pastorkemp • Leave a comment

John 1:1 (NKJV) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. How old are you? I’m guessing you are older than today. I’m guessing that, like Jesus at the dawn of creation, long before this day began you was. Truthfully, today is not much of a … Continue reading →

Was up?

Posted on September 21, 2015 by pastorkemp • Leave a comment

John 1:1 (NKJV) In the beginning was… “In the beginning was…” This is a stunning statement. Think about it, there was a time that our reality did not exist. As far as our universe, there was nothing, and I mean nothing. No atoms, molecules, and elements; no light, no darkness, no stars, planets, moons, and … Continue reading →

Is it character or compensation for you?

Posted on September 19, 2015 by pastorkemp • Leave a comment

Zechariah 8:16 (NKJV)  These are the things you shall do: Speak each man the truth to his neighbor; give judgment in your gates for truth, justice, and peace. You know, if an elderly couple were being interviewed on one of the many talk shows that dot the landscape of television land and said, “We’ve been … Continue reading →

Getting to the real problem

Posted on September 18, 2015 by pastorkemp • Leave a comment

Now there was also a dispute among them, as to which of them should be considered the greatest. Luke 22:24 (NKJV) Every time there is a conflict with a person there is a problem and if you think differently then that is another problem. However, the temptation is to think it is the conflict that … Continue reading →
