Closer to God Through Prayer
We live in troubled times. Things have changed. Satan, his demons and his minions among humanity have fundamentally transformed our world into a hideous thing that our forefathers wouldn’t recognize. Troubled times, indeed. Perilous times have come. But, as I’ve said many times before, as Christ-followers, we have nothing to fear. The worst the world …
Fear Sells
Jesus told us not to worry. Scripture tells us over and over again to “fear not.” Yet, so many professing Christians have become professional worriers.

One can no longer even walk through a public shopping mall without seeing what would have once been considered X-rated material, now proudly displayed as advertising and window dressing.
Noxious Weeds and Black Mold
There are many things in this world I will just never understand. For example, how is it that I can’t seem to grow a simple patch of grass in my back yard no matter what I do?
Nothing In the World Like A Mother’s Love
On Mother’s Day, I received an email from one of our readers in Kansas. She’s a mother, now in her 80s, and went to church on Mother’s Day hoping for some encouragement. But the pastor at her church never mentioned mothers.
What’s Up With the Post Office?
The USPS has been in a nosedive, downward spiral for years and it’s only getting worse. While this agency continues to raise prices and continues to operate as an unsustainable, failing business, the service has gotten so bad now I feel we must address the situation head on.

Marriage & Family — Doing Life Right

God’s Lifeboat Is More Than Half Empty
This month marks another anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic. For generations, this tragic story has captivated hearts and minds. The loss of the Titanic left a shaken world in disbelief and made people stop and think.

Revival & Reverence, Returning To God
I’d like to begin today with a couple of verses of Scripture. From Isaiah 30, “For they are a rebellious people, lying children, children unwilling to hear the instruction of the Lord; who say to the seers, ‘Do not see,’ and to the prophets, ‘Do not prophesy to us what is right; speak to us …
Was It Darkest Before the Dawn?
The first presidential election I remember taking an active interest in was in 1976. Jimmy Carter was running against Gerald Ford. I think the reason this election stands out in my memory is that I was in elementary school and the school held a “mock election.”
Don’t Let Your Weak Flesh Stop You
In the hectic activity of our daily lives, it’s easy to become comfortable and complacent when it comes to our personal devotion to God and our own personal spiritual condition.
Good Help Is Hard To Find
I learned that as an employer at the photography studio. I had a couple of great employees, but honestly, even back in the 1990s, most workers just weren’t worth their salt.
Hard Work Is Good For You
In Genesis 2, we read about how God wants us to work. Verse 15, “And the Lord God took the man and put him into the Garden of Eden, to work it and keep it.” Gardening, farm work, yard work.
The Ultimate Pardon
We all hate injustice, and so does God. The Psalmist wrote, “He who justifies the wicked and he who condemns the righteous are both alike an abomination to the Lord.”
Revival & Reverence, Returning To God
I’d like to begin today with a couple of verses of Scripture. From Isaiah 30, “For they are a rebellious people, lying children, children unwilling to hear the instruction of the Lord; who say to the seers, ‘Do not see,’ and to the prophets, ‘Do not prophesy to us what is right; speak to us …
Cautiously Optimistic
The Federal Beast in DC and the swamp creatures that have taken over our nation are not our friends, our representatives or our public servants. DC is a cesspool of corruption, shady backroom deals and dirty money.
