Citizen of Heaven

By: Hal Hammons
  • Summary

  • I am Hal Hammons, a citizen of heaven. I broadcast regular reports of what it is for a child of God to live in Satan's world. My reports typically break down into four segments:"What I've been preaching" -- a point I have made in a recent sermon."What I've been reading" -- A brief breakdown of a book of the Bible or other reading material that has helped me in my understanding or application of the Bible."What I've been hearing" -- news from the internet or other sources about what is going on, either among brothers and sisters in Christ or out in the world at large."What I've been playing" -- how I've been entertaining myself in my spare time, and some spiritual points I have been able to extract.

  • HONEY: Samson and the lion. "Winnie-the-Pooh." "Tupelo Honey." Honey Buzz.
    Apr 30 2024

    As I mentioned regarding salt a couple of weeks ago, the Bible says honey is good. Proverbs 24:13-14 compares it to God’s wisdom. Count your calories if you want, but don’t argue with God.

    This week we’ll discuss the best honey coming from the worst places; the most adorable honey-eater in literary history; the best honey in the world and what it has in common with Elvis Presley; and a way to grow your own honey empire that is the envy of all you play with.

  • EGGS: Not scorpions. "Dragon Hunter." Inflation. Praga Caput Regni.
    Apr 23 2024

    I said last week fish is one of my favorite proteins. Eggs may be my very favorite. If your chicken will lay it, I will eat it. This week we’ll discuss the goodness of eggs, and of everything else God gives us; the discovery of dinosaur eggs and the hypocrisy it revealed; a new word I invented to connect the price of eggs and the gradual (or not so gradual) change in our attitude toward sin; and the part eggs played in building the most beautiful city to ever be depicted in a board game.
