They make you smile. They make you laugh. They make you think. They know you best. They see your worst. They’re sad when you’re sad. They’re scared when you’re scared. They hold you up when you’re down. They have the power to speak into your life. They are there when you need them most. You’d […]
How It Ends (An Ode)
May 21, 2010 by
Unemployment soaring. States bankrupting. Stock market tanking. Lawlessness at the top levels of government. Oil gushing in the Gulf. Flood waters swamping Tennessee. Illegals overwhelming Arizona. Europe on the verge of collapse. Upheaval in Thailand. North and South Korea on the verge of war. Iran nuking up. Israel in a corner. Jesus at the door. […]
UFOs, Little Green Men and Bible Interpretation
May 17, 2010 by
The Bible. God’s Word. The sword of the Spirit. (Ephesians 6:17b) The “word of truth.” (John 17:17; 2 Timothy 2:15) The Lord’s holy book goes by many names. YOU CAN PROVE ANYTHING WITH THE SCRIPTURES And you can prove anything with the Scriptures. Do you realize that? You can prove anything with the Bible. What […]
Top 10 Trending Topics on Twitter the Day After Rapture

The trumpet is about to sound. (Revelation 11:15) When it does, believers in Jesus Christ will be “caught away” (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17) in the “twinkling of an eye” (1 Corinthians 15:52) to meet the Lord in the air. They will be removed from the earth. That’s when all hell breaks loose. Trust me. You don’t […]
How Far We’ve Fallen (A Call to Prayer)
May 4, 2010 by
We don’t pray. Let me explain. You see, there’s this big oil spill off the Louisiana coast and, don’t get me wrong, it’s not like we shouldn’t be busy doing everything possible to stop it, but we ought to be praying, too. (Ya think?) I know. I know. There are people who are praying, but […]
The Perfect Game
April 27, 2010 by
I was the 2nd baseman on a baseball team called the “Orioles” for three years in Little League Seniors. The last two years we won the championship and missed going undefeated by one game (17-1) in year 3. (God had to keep us humble?!) Probably the most significant memory for me (beyond these) was the […]
How Are You With “New”?
April 21, 2010 by
We like the “status quo” (or come to like it). I’m talking about believers in Jesus Christ. What I mean be “liking the status quo” is we so easily settle into a way of doing things ~ and it’s usually our way of doing things that we settle into. (Ya think?) Jesus exploded on the […]

The Gospel of Mark (or Someone Else?)
April 14, 2010 by
A THRILLER The Gospel of Mark is action-packed. It was written to the Romans who loved action. It reads as a thriller. It’s John Grisham, Michael Crichton, Stephen King, Frank Peretti and more. It never stops from beginning to end. If Matthew is the Gospel of the King (lion), if Luke is the Gospel of […]
