Reflections on The Calvary Road

This remarkable book, The Calvary Road, has blessed me beyond words. Although we finished all 10 chapters, I had to write one more post to wrap things up. If you have the 2020 (or recent) printing of the book, you will notice the Epilogue at the end. These pages contain a series of interviews between [...]

Chapter 10: Protesting our Innocence?

In this last chapter of The Calvary Road, Roy shared the story of the Pharisee and Publican (Luke 18). This leaves us with the reminder of what our hearts are like apart from Christ. Having this reminder constantly before us will keep us humble and broken, continually running back to the Lord for His grace. [...]

Chapter 9: The Power of the Blood of the Lamb

"The message and challenge of Revival, which is coming to many of us these days is searching in its utter simplicity. It is simply that there is only one thing in the world that can hinder the Christian's walking in victorious fellowship with God and his being filled with the Holy Spirit - and that [...]

Chapter 8: Are You Willing to be a Servant?

"Nothing is clearer from the New Testament than that the Lord Jesus expects us to take the low position of servants. This is not just an extra obligation, which we may or may not assume as we please. It is the very heart of that new relationship, which disciples are to take up with respect [...]

Chapter 7: The Speck & the Log

Chapter 7: The Speck & the Log

"If anyone would like to acquire humility, the first step is to realize one is proud. Nothing can be done before it."C.S. LEWIS I love that quote by Lewis and feel it goes well with chapter 7. Whenever I have read Matthew 7:3-5 about the speck and the log, I seem to have mostly overlooked [...]

Chapter 6: Revival in the Home

Chapter 6: Revival in the Home

In the beginning, creation was in complete harmony. God's plan for Adam and Eve was to live in perfect oneness with Him and each other. But when sin entered the world, that harmony was shattered. "And now, because [Adam and Eve] had lost their peace and fellowship with God, they lost it with each other. [...]

Chapter 5: The Dove and the Lamb

"We are not called upon to produce the fruit, but simply to bear it." I love the above quote so much because it emphasizes what chapter 4 focused on about the simplicity of Christ! Our walk with God is simply a moment by moment yielding to His Spirit all throughout the day. As we say [...]

Chapter 4: The Highway of Holiness

Chapter 4: The Highway of Holiness

"One of the things that we must learn if we are to live the victorious Christian life is the utter simplicity of it. How complicated we have made it!” I guess the reason we make it so difficult is because we feel we must figure it out. Paul says in 2 Corinthians 11:3, "But I [...]

Chapter 3: The Way of Fellowship

Chapter 3: The Way of Fellowship

"When Adam and Eve fell and chose to make themselves, rather than God, the center of their life, the effect was not only to put them out of fellowship with God, but also out of fellowship with each other." Broken fellowship with God always results in broken fellowship with others. We must get off the [...]

Chapter 2: Cups Running Over

"Brokenness, however, is but the beginning of revival. Revival itself is being absolutely filled to overflowing with the Holy Spirit, and that is victorious living."Roy Hession Are we being continually filled with the Holy Spirit? "Revival is when we can say yes at any moment of the day." How is this even possible? We know [...]
