It just recently occurred to me through a comment by a sister on another blog. The sheep are shepherding themselves.

The big name shepherds [...]

George Warnock say so gracefully and plainly what I have been trying to say, in my stumbling way, that we need an awakening to the deep things of God. What we have learned to be content with, in our forms and programs, George brings to the forefront and shines the bright light of truth [...]

Strong winds are blowing. What you may have thought was just a chilly gust representing a slight change in the Christian atmosphere is quickly becoming a cosmic storm of historical proportions. Things are not what they seem to be, and what you thought you owned as a believer may very well be worthless. The greatest heist to [...]

I belong to a club of bass fishermen. In that club, there are some good and talented anglers. We all make a display of talent, even if we have only modest ability, and boast among ourselves about trophy catches, but at the end of the day it is the Kevin Van Dam=s and the [...]

As demons traverse the globe, they do the only thing they know how to do, deceive and delude, and as men walk in the midst of these shadows, they are the deceived and the deluded. Every man cloaks the truth to appear as so many phantoms, all being mere apparitions of some valid point, and [...]
