From Foundations To Finish Lines; The connection between Hebrews 6:1 and Hebrews 12:1 (Sermon delivered January 25, 2026)
Author’s Note: This is the latest message I delivered at First Baptist Church of Montana. It is part of a series based on Hebrews 10:23 and focuses on the “Let us” verses throughout the book. In 10:23, it is written, “Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful.” …
Men of Renown, Gods of Deception: Why Greek and Roman Myths Sound Like the Bible’s Oldest Warning

Why Pride Collides with God’s Design — And Why Christians Must Respond with Both Truth and Love
If you strip away politics, slogans, and culture-war noise, the Bible gives a simple answer to why Pride—specifically the ideology of self-defined identity—is against God’s will.
The Long Road
But in the end, the Camino de Santiago is just a road. That’s all it can ever be. The difference is, of course, when you’re on this road, you’re actually THERE.
Truth Never Changes
Do you ever wish there were at least some things in the world that didn’t change? At least some things that were not destroyed by the ever-twisting depravity of our modern culture? I do.
Church policies on immigration do not supersede American law
That the Roman Catholic Church, of which I am a proud member, supports far less restrictive transnational immigration is well known, and His Holiness Pope Leo XIV has been pushing hard on the subject. Thus, the following article comes as no surprise to me: UPDATE: ICE deported Minnesota church employee, surveilled parish during Mass, mayor …
No, There’s No War on Christianity, Not at All!
The cited article below comes from The Irish Times, published in Dublin, and what passes for the only newspaper of record in that heavily Catholic country. Of course, that heavily Catholic country has also legalized homosexual marriage and prenatal infanticide, so . . . . Sunday, January 11, 2026, is in the calendar of …
The January Spaces
January may feel like a long, cold stretch of waiting, but God uses these ordinary, in-between times to shape our faith, deepen our trust, and remind us that He is just as present in the January gloom as He was in the December joy.
How many Modern Churches have Turned Faith into Facts, Jesus into a Mascot, and Grace into a Transaction
Many churches today struggle not because the Bible is unclear, but because familiar words have quietly changed meaning. Over time, Christian language has been softened, shortened, or modernized in ways that feel harmless.
Epiphany: Keep Looking for the Light
Epiphany celebrates Christ’s revelation to all people through the worship of the magi, reminding us that Jesus is revealed beyond tradition and history and still calls us today to seek Him, recognize His presence, and be transformed by worship.
Foolish Disputes and Arguments
In the first century, after Jesus’ life, death and resurrection, His followers were known as “The Way,” before eventually being referred to as “Christians.”
Why Pride Collides with God’s Design — And Why Christians Must Respond with Both Truth and Love
If you strip away politics, slogans, and culture-war noise, the Bible gives a simple answer to why Pride—specifically the ideology of self-defined identity—is against God’s will.
When the Bible is Deemed Hate Speech and Christians are Labeled Nationalists
When rights come from God, the state is limited. When rights come from government, the state becomes god. That’s the quiet theological dispute beneath all the noise.
Thank God for Jesus
Our country — and the world — has become something I never thought I’d live to see. I suppose every generation experiences some of that as they reminisce about the “good old days.” And in retrospect those “good old days” were not as good as we probably remember them
Musings on Christmas
George Washington cautioned in his Farewell Address that “reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.”
Zeitgeist: The Dumbest Lie Ever Told to Smart People
Every few years, somebody dusts off that 2007 YouTube-special “documentary” Zeitgeist like it’s forbidden knowledge smuggled out of the Vatican basement.
How history keeps wrecking the “take Christ out of Christmas” crowd
Every December, right on schedule, someone announces with great confidence that writing “Xmas” is a sinister attempt to erase Christ. Cue the outrage, the memes, and the self-appointed guardians of seasonal orthodoxy. And every year, history calmly clears its throat, raises one eyebrow, and says: “Actually… no.”
