Citizen of Heaven

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.

Citizen of Heaven

CHARIOTS OF FIRE: Elisha's vision. Complete Surrender. Liddell's tumble. Rook.

July 27, 2020 • Hal Hammons • Season 2 • Episode 69

I’ve been preaching … about the vision Elisha saw in 2 Kings 6. Those who are with us are truly more than those who are with them.

I’ve been reading … Complete Surrender, by Julian Wilson — the first biography of Eric Liddell I have read, and likely not the last.

I’ve been hearing … Liddell actually fell during a quarter mile race, picked himself up, and won. I thought for sure the movie made that up.

I’ve been playing … Rook. Help is right there, staring you in the face. It just may not be the specific kind of help you are looking for.
