Hey friends,In a world that often feels heavy, I've been reflecting on how much "gloom" gets poured into our daily lives—especially through the news and media. Scripture warns us about spiritual forces of darkness that work to blind minds, spread despair, and keep people trapped in hopelessness (Ephesians 6:12; 2 Corinthians 4:4). While Satan and …

“The Heart’s Witness: A Call to Truth and Love”
My dear friends, With a heart both tender and resolute, I pen these words, stirred by the truth of Romans 2:15 and the unyielding clarity of God’s Word, as one might find in the musings of a certain Oxford don, yet with the fiery conviction of a patriot for divine truth. We all cherish friends—some …

World Of The Mind
It's in there somewhere. Some of us like to talk and discus and to think carefully. I'd like to invite you to think with me. Not watered down, nothings, but pungent things. Vibrant things about God and human behavior. I'll begin in one way and end simplistic. The gospel part will not be interesting to …
Is Feminism the Problem?
In her later years, Queen Elizabeth learned the limits of a secular life. The why's and wherefores of her devotion to God grew as she aged and culminated in orchestrating the superiority of Christ at her own funeral. To Jackie and I, the Queens' final act meant much to our faith. We were in Green …

Super Bowl Sunday
Are you thinking about football, chips and salsa, beer, commercials and touchdowns? Not me. I woke up at 5 am and craved, but it was God's word that I looked forward to. Touchdowns are fun and commercials are interesting but nothing brings me more joy than learning about and writing about Jesus. So I read …
A Wonderful World
What would it be like if nobody spoke evil of dignities (yes, I meant "dignities"; persons or things worthy of honor and respect); that there are politicians and leaders worthy of respect and honor.That we would conscientiously honor and obey them, and all that are put in authority under them; I mean showing all fidelity, …
I need to tell him this!
I recently overheard someone say to another, "He's gone religious on me," as if they had done a bad thing. I suppose this happens to many of us when we come to faith in Jesus Christ. We lose a few beer drinking friends and are talked about behind our backs. But getting the title "Religious" …
Sorrows, When God Brings Them
It is a hard thing to experience sorrow. But the Bible is pretty clear that sorrow affects us all. Among other things, conflicts, depressions, longings, and mornings can bring on sorrows and people are usually at the heart of our sorrows. Hardly has a zucchini caused us true sorrows. I suppose a spoiled crop or …
