Do You Still Wear a Watch?
I know that many people have given up wearing a watch in exchange for a cell phone. However, unless you have your phone out, there’s no way you’re beating me telling the time. That’s because I usually have a watch firmly implanted on my wrist! I love watches because all I need to do is [...]
Why Are There So Many Translations Anyway?
Anyone that’s attempted to purchase a new Bible lately has been barraged by not only the multiple translations, but the compilations of Bibles. It’s not just that there are NIV, KJV, NKJV, ESV, CEV, and throw a few more acronyms in that alphabet soup and you get my point. You also have to add that [...]
Which Bible Should I Use?
Part of being a Christian family is being in God’s Word. It’s not enough to just show up on Sunday and listen to the preacher, but if we are to learn more about God—who He is and what He has done—we need to put in the time to actually read through His Word. The same [...]
Americans Gone Wild
Barbed wire is an interesting thing. Of it’s own, it’s a good deterrent for cattle, to keep them fenced in. Its pricks are not friendly, but if a cow was determined he could probably get through one of these fences, and then have the whole world as his pasture. In Romans 1, the Bible speaks [...]
Confronting the Sins We Tolerate
When I was a young adult, going into the Communion time, the Pastor would ask us to search our heart for sin to confess so that we would be right with God. In my self-righteousness, I had a hard time finding one. The truth is, there are many—if we would search His Word. Author Jerry [...]
How is Your Reputation?
This past Wednesday night, I gave a talk at my church about being witnesses for Christ. We talked about how we can impact people’s lives at the supermarket and when we go out to eat, but we also, briefly, touched on what we can do at the workplace. That got me to thinking—how is my [...]
Identity Crisis
Why do we expect men and women to be the same? They aren’t. I know, that statement may surprise some of you, but hear me out. Ever since the mid 1900’s, what we’ve expected of women has changed. She was no longer allowed to think that her life was complete by simply being a woman [...]
How Does $2.5 Trillion Sound?
The newly Republican House has a lot of expectations placed upon it—as one would expect considering the electoral landslide last November. Amidst the vote on repealing ObamaCare, many on the left called them time wasters for even going through with the vote, and decided also to pick them apart for the spending reductions that they [...]
Getting Tired of Winding that Watch?
“No one wears watches anymore,” My dad said. “They all have cell phones.” Except, that’s not quite true. The fact is, I’ve seen many that still wear their watch—even though they may check the time on their phone from time to time. Personally, I have two watches—one a binary watch and the other a Timex. [...]
Teen Tells Man to Save His Brother
I’m not sure I can do what this 13 year old did. Being trapped by a flash flood in Toowoomba, Australia, he told a passing truck driver to save his 10 year old brother first. When you add this to the fact that this young man did not know how to swim, and the result [...]
Who Is Our Biggest Ally?
If you would have guessed Great Britain, you would have came up with the same answer that I did. And yet that’s, obviously, not what our President thinks: Barack Obama has declared that France is America’s greatest ally, undermining Britain’s Special Relationship with the U.S. The President risked offending British troops in Afghanistan by saying [...]
America: Where Everyone is a Statistical Anomaly
The odds of you dying from a heart attack are much higher than dying by a terrorist attack. Yet which do you think Americans fear more? This past weekend, an act of aggression was taken out upon innocent civilians by a person who was mentally unstable. The act killed some, wounded others, and has left [...]
Pregnant And Beautiful
There’s something special about a pregnant woman. It’s more than the glow, it’s the amazing feeling that there’s a new life growing inside. When taken in this perspective, there’s a tiny miracle inside, and it’s something beautiful on the inside and the outside.
Maybe Mom Really Does Want To Stay Home
The feminist movement of the past few decades has made a crusade of trying to make the sexes equal in every way—telling women that they could have it all. They advocate having high power jobs, breaking the glass ceiling, and making as much money as the men around them. But what if those women don’t [...]
Born in the USA?
Yesterday the U.S. House did something that it has never done in all of its years of existence. For an hour and a half, Representatives read the entire U.S. Constitution. One would think it would have been uneventful—but that’s hoping for too much.
