Blood On Their Hands – By Steve Schmutzer
Many pastors, teachers, and Christian leaders today have blood on their hands. I think most of them are unaware of this situation. Some of them sense this dilemma a bit, but they don’t care sufficiently to be or do anything different. Lastly, there remains a remnant group who ARE aware, who DO understand, and they…

Confronting The Wolves :: By Steve Schmutzer
This is about confronting the wolves. If you are wise, you’ll do it. “Whaddya’ mean, ‘If I’m wise!?’” I can hear the question already. The Bible teaches that wisdom begins with a fear of the Lord (Prov. 9:10). Let’s unpack that and see where it goes. First, in this verse, “fear” is not the same…

Some Lessons Learned the Harder Way :: By Steve Schmutzer
This article is a personal story with a few takeaways and lessons learned. In 2008, the Pastor of the church my family was attending left for another church. In the wake of his departure, the small Sunday School class he had taught found itself without a teacher. I volunteered to teach that class. My emphasis was…

A Litmus Test for Faith :: By Steve Schmutzer
In my earlier life, I was a Critical Care RN. I became skilled at ‘rapid assessments.’ There were times I had less than a minute to determine a patient’s condition and what I needed to do. If my assessment was wrong, things could get bad – quick! Life is full of important assessments. When you…

‘Twas The Plight Before Christmas :: By Steve Schmutzer
‘Twas the plight before Christmas, and all through the House the blues in Congress showed the brains of a mouse. Leftist insanity ruled everywhere, and anti-Trump passions were all that was there. Fraud and deception poured from these Feds as ‘Orange Man Bad’ danced in their heads. AOC, with her prompter, was giving us laughs,…

The Perils of Apostasy :: By Steve Schmutzer
Given my fascination with various issues pertaining to the End Times, I often consider the matter of “apostasy.” Apostasy is an important theme that crops up within a responsible assessment of the prophetic Scriptures. It is an issue the church today would be wise to take stock of. To illustrate, Paul urged the fledgling and…

In-Depth Bible Prophecy Series in Northern Colorado… :: By Steve Schmutzer
‘A Biblical View of The End Times’ Did you know that one of every five verses in the New Testament is about Jesus Christ’s return? Did you know Bible Prophecy formed the foundation of the first sermon ever preached to the church (Acts 2:14-41), or that Paul dispensed a hefty dose of Bible Prophecy to the infant Thessalonian church…

The Extreme Truth – By Steve Schmutzer
Biden’s fiery and unhinged speech at Independence Hall, Philadelphia, was missing something. It lacked its original 1940’s German translation. Against a dramatic backdrop of glowing red lights and imposing dark shadows, and flanked by stoic square-shou…

Prophecy Conference: Confidence in the Chaos :: By Steve Schmutzer
Solid Bread’s Second Annual Prophecy Conference Solid Bread began as an ordinary Sunday School class 16 years ago with an emphasis on sound Biblical teaching. Due to its growth, it relocated to the Gym at Ridgeview Classical Schools in Fort Collins two years ago. That growth has continued, and regular attendees now come from all…

Missing Jesus Again :: By Steve Schmutzer
It seemed like forever since God had spoken to His people. Four hundred years had passed since the last Scripture had been written, and the spiritual leaders had gotten way off course. Very few of them showed they were worthy of their office. The religious system they oversaw had become a whitewashed crypt. It looked…

Not of This World – By Steve Schmutzer
I’m guessing a lot of you are like me. You see very little – if anything – in our world right now that subscribes to common sense and sound judgment. Those of us who have diligently prayed for wisdom and spiritual discernment sense a suffocating cloak …
