Barrack Hussein Obama promised to "fundamentally change America." I wonder if what is going on is what even he had in mind in 'changing' our country. I wonder if he (along with others) created a monster and now it's out of control. They succeeded in disrupting our education system; they crashed the economy; they brought … Continue reading Stay Free

ONE
In a recent conversation with two pastors, they shared the following: "I really think we as Christians need to start fervently admonishing & teaching away from the term “race.” There is one race...the human race. There are many variations thereof but only one race: the human race. Jesus died for every person in the human … Continue reading ONE
A Steadfast Spirit
King Josiah was 8 years old when he became king. (2 Kings 22 – 23). When he was 18, the Book of Law was found in the temple and read to the him, and the king wept and tore his clothes. Even though he had in his short life followed the “ways of his father … Continue reading A Steadfast Spirit

God instructed Moses to send spies into the land, and check it out. 12 men were selected, one from each … Continue reading Perspectives
The Building is Not the Church
Many church buildings will be empty Easter Sunday. No services, no communion service, no traditional Easter hymns, no beautiful lilies, no sermons glorifying the Resurrected Christ and calling all to seek Him. Just silence. The most sacred day of the year will still arrive. Sunday is coming. The event in history it memorializes still happened. … Continue reading The Building is Not the Church

David had been banished from the presence of King Saul. Jealousy and suspicion drove Saul to mistrust David, even though Saul had liked David and promoted him to a high rank in his army. After David slew the giant Goliath an evil spirit began to influence Saul and eventually drove him to try to kill … Continue reading Understanding the Times
SOTU
There was an iconic moment right after the State of the Union address last night: Speaker Nancy Pelosi ripping apart what was apparently a copy of the President's speech. It came across as an act of rebellion and disrespect, and IMHO little more than a childish tantrum. It's amazing that Speaker Pelosi is the third … Continue reading SOTU

The future. What is it? Why is it important? Just how important is it? What if plans for our future fall apart? How do your plans for the future affect what you do today?

Still President
There's a lot of premature celebrating going on among liberals because they wrongly believe Trump has been voted out of office. The twitter-sphere was alive with the likes of Alyssa Milano and others crowing their goodbyes to the President. They are woefully uneducated in Constitutional procedure. Had they been paying attention in their high school … Continue reading Still President
Standing on the Bank
In July 1993 I stood in Riverview Park in Hannibal, MO and looked to the east. As far as I could see was water; the Mississippi River was about 12 miles wide at that time. Standing next to me was an 80-year-old man; we stood there in silence for what seemed like several minutes. He … Continue reading Standing on the Bank
