Beach Wedding Sand Ceremony?

Steve Durkac Posted on August 28, 2019 by Steve DurkacAugust 9, 2023

If you want to add a nice meaningful touch to your wedding ceremony, consider adding a sand ceremony. It is popular down here on the beach and is much like the unity candle ceremony that you may have seen in a church wedding. The idea behind it goes back to biblical times when covenants were made between two parties and the blending of … Continue reading →

1 Peter 3:7 and Weaker Vessel?

Steve Durkac Posted on August 27, 2019 by Steve DurkacAugust 9, 2023

Last Sunday at CrossHope Chapel we looked at Genesis 3:1-8 and the account of Satan approaching Eve, but not Adam. We talked about the probability that Satan had studied these new creatures, man and women, and apparently he saw reason to approach Eve first or at least initially. While I don’t exactly remember how it came up in that discussion, … Continue reading →

Best Time to Start Beach Ceremony?

Steve Durkac Posted on August 25, 2019 by Steve DurkacAugust 9, 2023

I realize that brides like a “sunset” wedding, and they are beautiful and have a certain romantic appeal, but there are some things to consider if you are wondering about the pros and cons of choosing to start your beach wedding in the morning, afternoon, or evening… SUNRISE: A sunrise or an early morning wedding is awesome. It is peaceful, … Continue reading →

Communion Service in Ceremony?

Steve Durkac Posted on August 21, 2019 by Steve DurkacAugust 9, 2023

Including a simple communion service as part of your wedding ceremony is not only acceptable, but an ideal way to include an important biblical element in the ceremony. Annually, I probably get about 8 to 10 requests for including communion as part of the ceremony. During a wedding ceremony, communion fits best just after the rings are exchanged and is … Continue reading →

Lake of Fire and Loss of Consciousness?

Steve Durkac Posted on August 15, 2019 by Steve DurkacAugust 9, 2023

Sunday at CrossHope Chapel we looked at Genesis 2:7 and the composite of man which the King James explains as “dust” plus “breath” equals “soul.” We later went into overtime when I couldn’t refrain from answering a question about the Lake of Fire and the loss of consciousness following the second death. Actually, I was asked what my thought was … Continue reading →

El Paso, Dayton, and the Return of Christ

Steve Durkac Posted on August 5, 2019 by Steve DurkacAugust 9, 2023

This morning as I was enjoying my hotel breakfast waffle I found myself sitting in front of a TV and forced to endure its fake news. What I witnessed was an interview with the El Paso mayor and a CBS reporter who badgered the man about….not his response to the despicable crime…not his actions for his citizens well being…not the … Continue reading →
