Hello,
I finished my education at Moody Bible Institute in 2009. I am aspiring to the high calling of a local Pastor/Elder. I have been married since 2005. My wife and I are the proud parents of Jeshuah Paul Willcox and Eliana Joy Willcox. I love talking about: God, philosophy, sports, cars, and science. I love people but I also really enjoy sitting down and reading a book.
If you want to know more feel free to ask. I would enjoy talking with you I am sure!
Blessings,
Stephen Willcox

Thanks for your blog on the magnitude of abortion. With your permission I’d like to use some of it in letters to the editor regarding how important it is to not elect Obama.
Mike I would be honored to have my article used to STOP or limit in whatever way possible abortion. You have my permission. I am glad that, I can serve you and this cause! God bless and Godspeed!
Stephen – Looks like you’ve got some good, substantive work here. I’ve been teaching Bible at a Christian high school for 8 years now. I hope you are able to fulfill your desire as God leads.
Great site and I’ve only been able to spend a short time here…so far anyway. I’ve found it to be full of excellent information, challenging, and quite encouraging. Thanks Stephen, and God bless.
@MJohnson,
I am humbled by your comment. Thank-you so much for visiting and please come again. My desire is to see a regular group of people who come on and comment so that a discussion could form on the posts being made. Thanks again for your comment! God bless!

I suspect that your expressed sentiment “I would enjoy talking with you I am sure.” is reserved to only persons who are flatteries of your stated belief. But it is described that a man only becomes sharpened by conflict not by flattery. For the command is “Love your enemy.” Is it needful to remind that if you do not obey Him it is also positive proof that you do not love Him? I see that you are a grad. of MBI and in regard to this it has been ruled that the student cannot be otherwise than like his teacher ref. Lk. 6:40. If you will not obey Him neither have they.
If we want to email you how do we do that?
Mr. Jones,
I am sorry you get the impression that I only want to hear from those who agree with me. I know I am a sinner and have many faults an I apologize for not being able to reply to your questions and comments promptly. I do hope to answer your questions. I also hope that you can accept that we may not agree no matter what I say.
Concerning MBI, I am grateful for the institution I have received a great education and am thankful to God I got to receive it free because of the generosity of others donating to the school. I am sorry that my behavior has caused you to think poorly of the school. However, I must say that you are not being patient nor gracious in your estimation of the school which you as a professing believer need to be.
Moody has been used of God to equip thousands of people to go and serve in spreading the gospel to the world. Moody has also been extremely generous with “their enemies” in the community we live in. They are only a human institution and so they do have their limitation. I am sure this is what has left you frustrated with me and the institution. Perhaps give people time to think and pray in their response to you. And perhaps accept being wronged from time to time rather than bitter.
Concerning your many questions on PSA. I have responded to your questions and it seems we will not agree on the issue. I have recommended a source that I feel would be a better help to you than I. Allow me to close with this. Getting this right or wrong is getting the gospel right or wrong because of the crucial role atonement plays in salvation. So be careful, be fair, be humble, and be open to what the Scripture says.

I found your blog while googling for commentaries on the Beatitudes. I read that specific blog page and was struck by the simplicity yet insightfulness of your message. Coming to this page I am pleased to discover a young believer with his sights set on a lifetime of service. As a 61 year old who has been a Christian for some 30 years, I value the energy, faith, and spiritual vigor of people like you. May God richly bless you, your family, and your ministry to others.
