Is Western Culture Dying?

This post is also available as a podcast: https://anchor.fm/teague-mckamey/episodes/Is-Western-Culture-Dying-e1jjpt8 *** My daughter attends high school online through Wilson Hill Academy. It has been a wonderful fit for her, and we love the Christ-centered education they offer. Given it is virtual education, Wilson Hill intentionally fosters community amongst families. One way they do this is through…

“Just a Thought” Revisited

This post is also available as a podcast: https://anchor.fm/teague-mckamey/episodes/Just-a-ThoughtRevisited-e1j6nue *** In April, I wrote a very brief post entitled, “Just a Thought.” It said: “We do not choose our own suffering. The suffering chosen for us is that which will cause us to give up everything for Godor keep everything for ourselves.” After reading it,…

The Gospel of Deuteronomy

This post is also available as a podcast: https://anchor.fm/teague-mckamey/episodes/The-Gospel-of-Deuteronomy-e1ivj7i Earlier this year, the Lord took me through Deuteronomy. Typically, I read through a book (maybe more than once) to get the flow of it. Then I do a slow reading, maybe looking up words, camping on phrases, and doing more in-depth study. All through this…

These Are the Wounds

(This blog post is also available on The Voice of One podcast: https://anchor.fm/teague-mckamey/episodes/These-Are-the-Wounds-e1iknl2) In December of 2020 I released a CD entitled Poured Out. The songs on this album all touch on the theme of communion somehow, especially the church’s calling to participate in Christ’s death and resurrection. I attend a non-denominational church. About 20…

Thy Way, Not Mine, O Lord

This post is also available on The Voice of One Podcast: https://anchor.fm/teague-mckamey/episodes/Thy-Way–Not-Mine–O-Lord-e1idi52 I’ve been reading The Oxford Book of Christian Verse, and came across a work by Horatius Bonar: “Thy Way, Not Mine, O Lord.” Though presented as a poem in the book I’m reading, I discovered it is a hymn. (Listen here). Bonar’s words…

The Voice of One Podcast

So, apparently podcasts are a thing 😆 And not a thing I’ve ever paid attention to. But this is kinda how I roll. I’ve never been “cutting edge.” When I started blogging 14 or 15 years ago, it was mostly by accident. I created an account and blog on Blogger (thewordwasgod.blogspot.com) so I could read…

Published in Heart of Flesh Journal!

In 2020, the Lord prompted me to be more intentional about writing and reading poetry. One aspect of that has been submitting poems to journals. I am happy to say that, by August, I will have had three poems published! (If you’d like to learn more about my poetry, visit my poetry blog: A Wandering…

Disgrace (Part Two)

Read part one here: https://thevoiceofone.org/2022/04/14/disgrace-part-one/ Just before talking about going to Jesus outside the camp, the writer says, “We have an altar from which those who serve the tabernacle do not have a right to eat” (Heb. 13:10). Joining Jesus outside the camp is joining in the suffering of the cross. This is the altar the…

Disgrace (Part One)

The law commands that unclean things be separated from clean. After blood from the sacrifice was taken into the most holy place on the Day of Atonement, the animal’s body was taken outside the camp and burned (Lev. 16:27; Heb. 13:11). The animal (who was innocent) took on the spiritual filth of the people. Yet…

Just a Thought…

We do not choose our own suffering. The suffering chosen for us is that which will cause us to give up everything for God or keep everything for ourselves.
