The crusade against sloppy ice cream melting all over your hand

Skilled Workman Posted on February 19, 2013 by David BergslandFebruary 19, 2013

Tonight to celebrate our 37th, Pat and I went and had some of best ice cream we’ve ever eaten. The new Mom & Pops ice cream parlor on North Riverfront brings to mind a new clean, modern version of Baskin Robbins owned by locals with better ice cream. As Minnesotans, we spit in ol’Man Winter’s eye and say ice cream is better in the winter with a -25° wind chill, drifting snow, and two glorious sundogs hangin’ in … Continue reading →

It’s not easy to join a church

Skilled Workman Posted on November 29, 2011 by David BergslandMarch 23, 2020

It’s not easy to join a church as we approach the end of the church age. As more and more churches fall into apostacy, we are seeing remarkably inventive ways to compromise the Gospel. For example, Jesus is seen as a wide, obvious gate. The way that the post-modern church teaches, the gate is not very narrow.  There are several common practices in the modern church that seem to provide a wide open gate. Salvation through baptism is … Continue reading →

Jesus is the narrow gate

Skilled Workman Posted on November 28, 2011 by David BergslandMarch 23, 2020

Jesus is the narrow gate and you should always remember the words of Jesus about this narrow gate. They are words the church does not want to hear in this modern age of political correctness (PC). But we really need to consider the implications. “You can enter God’s Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way. But the gateway to life … Continue reading →

Gathering a remnant…

Skilled Workman Posted on December 29, 2010 by David BergslandDecember 29, 2010

For a long time my heart has been directed toward people in the pews of mainline churches left without teaching, training, or encouragement in righteousness, power, and love in the Lord. I spend much time thinking about them, praying for them, asking God to reach them. Today, I was listening to a televangelist who was prophetically talking about God gathering a remnant as we all prepare for the end and the revisiting of the Messiah to the earth. … Continue reading →

Careful! God is going on vacation

Skilled Workman Posted on May 29, 2009 by David BergslandMay 29, 2009

One of the real surprises when we moved back here to Minnesota after 25 years in New Mexico was Summer. I had grown accustomed to the eight month summers of mid-New Mexico on the high plains south of Albuquerque. March to October I could expect heat and sun. I came to hate the sun. It made it impossible to work outside, and on & on. I was really looking forward to summers in Minnesota. I knew about … Continue reading →
