Please read part one first.

I mentioned I have had direct experiences of God but don’t talk about it…

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…
His Voice in My Heart
Some years ago I came across a blog entitled, “Wordscroll.” I noticed immediately that this blog was different; the posts were all written in first person as words from God. Now, I’ve hung around charismatic and pentecostal circles for a long time and heard lots of “words” before. Some have been rich with the Holy…
The Beast
I’m doing something a little different in this post. The picture above is from our church service on 2/7/21. If you click it, it will (hopefully) take you to a video of our service. Our church has been going through Revelation. Three of us are taking turns preaching. One is our pastor, Roger. Another is…
New Jerusalem, New Man
Below is the introduction to one of my booklets, The New Jerusalem. *** Revelation chapters 21 and 22 contain descriptions of God’s Holy City, the New Jerusalem. This city is called “the bride, the wife of the Lamb” (Rev. 21:9). When she appears, John hears a loud voice saying, “Now the dwelling of God is with…
Whose House?
Years back, the Lord opened the book of Haggai to me in new ways. (See the booklet “Haggai: Feast” for more about that). Verse 1:4 is probably the heart of the book: “Is it a time for you yourselves to be living in your paneled houses, while this house remains a ruin?” The temple was…
Babylon Is Fallen!
We are going through Revelation in church. Last week we started chapter 17 about Babylon, “the notorious prostitute” John sees riding on the back of a scarlet beast (Rev. 17:3). John is told this whore “has an empire over the kings of the earth” (Rev. 17:18). The fact she rides the beast emphasizes this–the beast…
Childish Things
Years and years ago, I wanted to be a prophet. God began giving me prophetic words in church. As time went on, I decided I should trust God in new ways so that my prophetic gift would grow. More than once, I gave prophetic words to people I barely knew. One time, as I prayed…
The Key of David
The book of Revelation has fascinated and bewildered readers since it was written. Among the scriptures, it is perhaps unrivaled in its use of images, symbols, and prophetic theater. Yet nearly all the images, symbols, and dramatic events in Revelation can be found elsewhere in scripture. Revelation isn’t unique as far as its content goes….
Who, Me?
“You have abandoned the love you had at first.” “You accept other gospels.” “You tolerate sexual immorality.” “People say you’re alive but you’re dead.” “You are lukewarm, self-satisfied, and complacent.” These are things Jesus said to the churches in Revelation chapters two and three. As I read these statements today, I thought about whether any…
