Nearness
I read somewhere that there is always a spider within 6 feet of us. How true that is, I don't really know. In my career I've been in attics, crawl spaces, and all sorts of dark holes, and usually there were spiders. Thankfully, I was never bitten. I disliked the webs hanging down more than … Continue reading Nearness
Bucket List (No, I’m not dying—yet)
Everone knows what a bucket list is; that list of things you want to do before you "kick the bucket."

Race? What Race?
Does the word "race" appear in the Bible with the same meaning as we see it used today? I think not. Now, in different translations the word 'race' does appear, but it seems to usually mean the human race, which is translated from "Man", which usually in the OT means "mankind" or all people as … Continue reading Race? What Race?
