We don’t understand the Scriptures or God’s love (including me, too). I’ve heard it said many times that if you or I were the only one, Jesus would have died for us(!). I’ve also heard that Christ died because we are valuable to Him. Each statement may be true in a sense, but not in […]
10 Things You Will Never Hear on NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams
November 14, 2011 by
“‘For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul?’” (Mark 8:36) When God was first awakening my heart to Him I would ask questions about life and talk about things spiritual and people would get angry at me for doing so. You see, I didn’t know it at […]
Ignorance, Asteroids, a Great Earthquake and War in the Middle East
November 10, 2011 by
There is an ignorance when it comes to events unfolding. There is a lack of knowledge and a darkness. There is a veil over minds. (2 Corinthians 4:4) For many, they’ve chosen to remain in the dark (and the devil is most obliging). You speak to them about “heavenly things” and it’s that deer in […]

Aliens, Dead Planets, a Spectacular Earth and the Gap Theory
November 1, 2011 by
We have interactive Sundays at our church. Once every month the congregation writes down questions on slips of paper. They are collected. And then the pastor answers the questions during his sermon time for that day. It’s cool. On a recent Sunday one of the slips of paper had a single word, “Aliens.” As our […]
The Beastly Dog (guest blog post)
October 30, 2011 by
(Guest blogger today is my daughter, Theresa.) Four years ago, I was chased by a beast. I was pedaling on my two-wheeled bike with my brother Michael; my mom used her footwork to keep up. At this time, I must have been eight. Michael and I rode ahead of my mom, biking around our neighborhood […]
Bad Neighbor Bye Bye
October 29, 2011 by
I was depressed. I was at my whit’s end. (It happens to pastors, too.) I couldn’t take it any more. Here’s why. It wasn’t that my next door neighbor played his music. It was that he played it so loud, so often, so selfishly (in disregard for the neighborhood). And he had this “box” thing […]
