Creativity is a major part of God’s image

Skilled Workman Posted on April 9, 2012 by David BergslandMarch 29, 2020

We are made in the image of God. Creativity is a major part of God’s image. One of the primary attributes of God is His creativity. Even a casual examination of flowers, clouds, trees, mountains, or anything else in His creation will prove to you His immense creativity. Then God said, “Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us. They will reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, the … Continue reading →

Spiritually cleaning up your work place

Skilled Workman Posted on April 9, 2012 by David BergslandJuly 15, 2020

Spiritually cleaning up your work place does not have anything to do with the drek seen from Hollywood. Office help: let’s start with the basics As I ramp up to start producing help for you in your daily work, it strikes me that the most basic things are often forgotten. So, let’s start with something real basic. Gaining spiritual control of your office As we get started on this we need to talk about some basics of … Continue reading →

Maintaining a spiritual sanctuary in which to live and work

Skilled Workman Posted on April 9, 2012 by David BergslandMarch 23, 2020

Maintaining a spiritual sanctuary should be one of your basic Christian skills. Of course, the Holy Spirit enables the sanctuary to work and be safe. Maintaining a spiritual sanctuary helps security in the midst of a war Before we get started on this we need to talk about some basics of warfare. Rest assured, it would be extremely easy to prove to you (if you don’t already know) that the Christian walk is warfare. As a soldier … Continue reading →

Legalism versus freedom: Ishmael or Isaac? Galatians 4:21-31

Skilled Workman Posted on March 26, 2012 by David BergslandMarch 26, 2012

Verse 4:21–31 Tell me now, you who have become so enamored with the law: Have you paid close attention to that law? Abraham, remember, had two sons: one by the slave woman and one by the free woman. The son of the slave woman was born by human scheming; the son of the free woman was born by God’s promise. This illustrates the very thing we are dealing with now. The two births represent two ways of … Continue reading →

Are you sure God wants to heal you? Gal 4:12-15

Skilled Workman Posted on March 19, 2012 by David BergslandMarch 19, 2012

Verse 4:12a Brothers and sisters, I became like you, so I beg you to become like me. Paul had taken on Gentile cultural practices in order to minister to them effectively. Here he is asking those to whom he ministered to become like him spiritually. This entire little section seems to be about reminding the Galatians about the ties they have of friendship and love. The larger question is: How much are we to mimic our leaders? … Continue reading →

But Lord, Lord…Sorry! I never knew you

Skilled Workman Posted on November 18, 2011 by David BergslandNovember 25, 2021

I never knew you — this is an edited excerpt from a potential new book eventually called “The Narrow Gate”. What could be worse than hearing I never knew you from the Lord? It seems as if many will hear just that. Let’s look at a quote from Luke: Then one said to Him, “Lord, are there few who are saved?” And He said to them,  “Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say … Continue reading →

Accused of being religious?

Skilled Workman Posted on October 14, 2011 by David BergslandMarch 23, 2020

Accused of being religious — I hope not. What a horrible thing that is! I am certainly not religious, at least not too much. According to dictionary.com: a religion is a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, especially when considered as the creation of a superhuman agency or agencies, usually involving devotional and ritual observances, and often containing a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs. The problem is that sets are defined and God is beyond definition—at least my God is. Sets of beliefs become merely  points of argument: think waste of time. Yes, I can define many of my beliefs. Many of them are Biblical. I do see the … Continue reading →

Dads love to play

Skilled Workman Posted on June 18, 2011 by David BergslandJune 18, 2011

Dad’s the One to Like in Social Media, Gaming, Entertainment | News – Advertising Age. “Dads, even more than moms, believe they’re spending more time with their kids these days than their parents did. But how dads are spending that time skews heavily toward media, entertainment and the internet, according to a new broad-ranging survey… The Ipsos LMX Family survey… found dads are spending 50% or more time than moms with kids online, playing video games and going … Continue reading →
