David’s Daily Devotion for Sept. 4

September 4, 2025 - Good Morning! It’s Thursday, September 4.

Are you a student of presidential history? It’s a fascinating area of study. Did you know that there were three presidents who, after their term had ended, took another job in government? Andrew Johnson became a senator. John Quincy Adams spent almost 20 years as a congressman from Massachusetts. And William Howard Taft became the chief justice of the Supreme Court. Imagine holding the highest office in both the executive and judicial branches of government. Amazing!  

David's Daily Devotion for September 3

September 3, 2025 - Good Morning! It’s Wednesday, September 3.

When you walk into a lot of churches you’ll find a room called The Fellowship Hall. It’s a place where the congregation gathers - gathers for potluck meals, for banquets, for special occasions - for well, fellowship.

That’s kind of a “church” word, fellowship. It’s our word for what the world would call a party.

David's Daily Devotion for September 2

September 2, 2025 - Good Morning! It’s Tuesday, September 2.

Have you ever sent a bouquet of flowers to someone? Have you ever received one? I’m guessing you answered “yes” to at least one of those questions, maybe both. And that’s why the Flower Industry brings in over 100 Billion dollars each year! But I was thinking this morning about that moment in each of our lives when we probably get the most flowers. I’m talking about that last moment of our lives and all those flowers at all those funerals.

David’s Daily Devotion for Aug. 29

August 29, 2025 - Good Morning! It’s Friday, August 29.

Let me tell you about a remarkable method of communication and connection. You probably haven’t heard of it. It’s exceedingly rare. I’ll describe it for you.

First, take a sheet of paper and place it flat on a table or desk. Next, using a writing implement - pen, pencil, crayola, your choice - fill the sheet of paper with thoughts. Important thoughts, trivial thoughts, humorous thoughts, serious thoughts - again, your choice.

David’s Daily Devotion for August 27

August 27, 2025 - This morning we take a look at a trilogy of Bible chapters, three consecutive scripture passages that form a pattern - a pattern that we see repeated over and over in our lives.  This morning we look at Psalm 22, 23, and 24.  I would print these three psalms in their entirety, but I never write more in these daily devotions than you can read in two minutes, so I’ll just share three excerpts.  

David's Daily Devotion for August 26

August 26, 2025 - Good Morning! It’s Tuesday, August 26.

When you receive good news, or when something positive happens to you, what do you usually say? Well, if you’re like many Christians, you say, “Praise the Lord!” Or, in our fast paced culture, maybe you just text PTL! We find this phrase of praise over 40 times in the Bible, mostly in the Psalms. But, using slightly different words, the Word of God encourages us, in countless verses, to give Him praise.

David’s Daily Devotion for Aug. 22

August 22, 2025 - Good Morning! It’s Friday, August 22.

Do you know someone who is blind? Maybe a friend or a family member? Statistics tell us that over a million Americans have severe vision impairment. That’s a big number. But it pales in comparison to the number of blind people in the 1st Century, during the time of the New Testament. In the gospel of John, chapter 9, we read of an encounter between a blind man and Jesus.
