Sunday Scripture

Greetings my friends. It is Sunday December 28TH 2025, and this is the day that our LORD has made. Let us rejoice. Let us be glad in it. Let us celebrate this great new day of believing, following, trusting, loving, and being more like our Lord + Savior Jesus Christ. Let us love our neighbor as ourself.

It’s my 392ND #SundayScripture, and my final one of 2025. It’s been a great year for me, and I’ve documented much of it here on my blog. Thank You for being part of my journey through this year. I’m looking forward to seeing what God has in store for me in 2026. May He continue to bless us richly as we look to Him in everything we do and everywhere we go.

9 weeks ago I began transcribing my sermon titled “Apostle & Elder”. I preached it to my second church family on Sunday October 18TH 2020.

Part 1 / Part 2 / Part 3 / Part 4 / Part 5 / Part 6 / Part 7 / Part 8 / Part 9

Here’s Part 10 (the Conclusion):

John’s concluding words in his 2ND letter are my concluding words to you. John writes:

I have much more to say to you, but I don’t want to do it with paper and ink. For I hope to visit you soon and talk with you face to face. Then our joy will be complete. Greetings from the children of your sister – chosen by God. (1:12-13)

John is tired of writing. He wants to visit. He wants to talk – face to face – just as we are doing right here. He wants to personally visit the chosen lady and her children – the church and its congregation.

You see our joy is not complete – until we meet – corporately as a church body – in fellowship with each other. During those 10 Sundays this past March, April, and May when we didn’t meet here – including on Resurrection Sunday (Easter) – the joy was not complete. Pastor Bob recorded 10 great sermons, and he placed them on Facebook. We were fed and nourished by those messages, but there was no Praise & Worship – led by Ben and Jen. The joy was not complete. We didn’t get to see each other. We didn’t get to share our past week with each other. We didn’t get to pray together. We didn’t get to laugh together. The joy was not complete.

You can’t have a full relationship with Christ by staying at home and not having a relationship with your fellow believers and followers – with your brothers and sisters of your church family. Your joy is not complete.

I can’t say this enough. This is the peak of my week. This is the most anticipated – and most exciting experience of my week. My joy is complete.

And that’s my message to you on this day. Let me put my face mask back on here, so that I can walk to the altar, and talk with you face to face.

[END OF SERMON]

My testimony is featured each week here on #SundayScripture – whether it’s part of a sermon, a testimony, or just me writing about the events of the past week. Hopefully it encourages you and inspires you to seek the Lord – and get closer to Him with each new day.

If you wish to learn more about the God I know – then stay tuned to #SundayScripture. The best is yet to come !

Thank you for reading my blog for this day, and may:

The LORD bless you, and keep you.
The LORD make His face shine upon you, and be gracious to you.
The LORD lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace.

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. AMEN.

No Comments on My Top 10 Hits – Week 462

Every Monday I post my all-new Top 10 Christian hit music chart based on personal preference and influenced by radio airplay from the previous week. It’s the continuation of a weekly hobby that goes back almost 50 years. Here’s this week’s chart – for the week ending Sunday December 21ST 2025 – the 462ND week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:

2019 – “Unstoppable God” – Sanctus Real
2018 – “Well Done” – The Afters
2017 – “Control (Somehow You Want Me)” – Tenth Avenue North

TOP 25 OF 2025 – This week’s chart is the penultimate chart of 2025. Next Monday I’ll present my 52ND and final chart of the year. And then the very next day – Tuesday December 30TH 2025 – I’ll present my special year-end chart – My Top 25 Of 2025. Spoiler Alert: 4 of my Top 10 songs above will appear on the year-end-chart – and perhaps a 5TH song as well.

ONE-HIT WONDER – Matty Mullins scored a # 1 smash on my chart in November 2020 with “No Hold On Me”. You may know him as the longtime lead singer of Memphis May Fire. He’s also the new lead singer of Anberlin. If you have a really good memory, and you’ve been following my chart since the mid-to-late-2000s then you may remember 3 hits that Anberlin placed on my chart back then – long before Matty joined the band.

SPOTIFY – You can hear “My Top 10 Hits” anytime by accessing my CountUp playlist on Spotify. All 10 hits are there from top to bottom. You can hear them in order from # 1 to # 10, or you can shuffle them. My playlist will be updated every weekend (usually before the actual chart is presented here on Mondays). You can link to it here.

Your likes, follows, and comments are always appreciated. Thank You for being part of my online ministry to share God’s Good News and win souls for Christ through His music. God used loud music on the radio in South Florida to reach me in August of 2006. I’ve been testifying about Him ever since.

Be blessed my friends ! May our God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Sunday Scripture

Greetings my friends. It is Sunday December 21ST 2025, and this is the day that our LORD has made. Let us rejoice. Let us be glad in it. Let us celebrate this great new day of believing, following, trusting, loving, and being more like our Lord + Savior Jesus Christ. Let us love our neighbor as ourself.

This is the 4TH Sunday of Advent of 2025. On this Sunday we receive and rejoice in God’s eternal love as we eagerly await the new Kingdom of God on earth.

1 John 4:16-17 NLT:
We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in His love. God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them. And as we live in God – our love grows more perfect. So we will not be afraid on the day of judgment, but we can face Him with confidence because we live like Jesus here in this world.

8 weeks ago I began transcribing my sermon titled “Apostle & Elder”. I preached it to my second church family on Sunday October 18TH 2020.

Part 1 / Part 2 / Part 3 / Part 4 / Part 5 / Part 6 / Part 7 / Part 8

Here’s Part 9:

You know we hear a lot about systematic racism in our country today. That’s become a trending phrase on social media and a talking point over the TV airwaves. But if you want to see systematic evil – look no further than the world out there. The worldview is that of systematic evil. It is opposed to Creator, Christ, and Spirit as One. It is against God’s believers and followers and His Kingdom here on Earth. It is anti-church. It is anti-Christ. It is under the influence of Satan.

The next time I’m blessed with the opportunity to preach a full sermon up here I’ll be preaching on “Satan & Hell”, and that’s actually the name of the sermon. I wrote it this past April and into May – during the peak of the pandemic – when everything was shut-down around us. It was actually supposed to be today’s sermon (next in line), but I wanted today’s sermon to be more uplifting, and more of a continuation of Pastor Bob’s current message series. Last Sunday Pastor preached on “Walking With God”, and the previous Sunday he preached on “Dwelling In The Presence Of God”.

My sermon today could’ve been titled “Living In The Truth Of God”. John The Elder reminds us to live in truth and love. We are commanded to love one another. We must remain in the teaching that God’s Word has taught us. We must know a deceiver – a false teacher – when we hear one. Always verify with God’s Truth.

[TO BE CONTINUED – NEXT WEEK]

If you wish to learn more about the God I know – then stay tuned to #SundayScripture. The best is yet to come !

Thank you for reading my blog for this day, and may:

The LORD bless you, and keep you.
The LORD make His face shine upon you, and be gracious to you.
The LORD lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace.

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. AMEN.

It’s the continuation of a weekly hobby that goes back almost 50 years.

2017 – “Control (Somehow You Want Me)” – Tenth Avenue North

CHRIS TOMLIN – 3 weeks ago I hinted that his 11TH hit on my chart was on the verge of becoming his 4TH # 1 smash, and so it is. “How Good It Is” ascends to the pinnacle. It’s the first single off his 18TH studio album – “The King Is Still The King”. It’s a ready-made Sunday Morning Praise + Worship song for church bands – with lyrics taken straight from Psalms 92, 98, 100, and 113.

ONE-HIT WONDER – Building 429 – named after Ephesians 4:29 – scored a HUGE # 1 smash in October and November 2019 with “Fear No More”. In addition to its 6 consecutive weeks at # 1 – it also spent 7 consecutive weeks at # 2. To this day it is still one of my Top 40 songs of the past 461 weeks (based on chart performance). It was actually the band’s last big hit after 15 years of hits on the radio. Nowadays lead singer Jason Roy is the only remaining member. He continues touring with new musicians supporting him.

Be blessed my friends ! May our God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
