June 25, 2017   This week while driving home, I turned on a Christian radio station.  The speaker – a well-known pastor many of you know – was teaching on one of his favorite topics – prophecy.  Seems like every time I hear him, that’s what he’s talking about.  Now, don’t misunderstand me, he’s a […]

June 4, 2017   Jesus is coming back. This is a non-negotiable truth of the Christian faith. But the question is when? Perhaps no other question has sparked more interest or been debated more hotly.

April 16, 2017   When I say the word afterlife, what comes to mind? Seems most images have a stairway, which means our thoughts of heaven come more from a song than the Bible. It doesn’t matter where I say it – in what language or culture– it produces definite ideas and images. Nirvana, Brahman, […]

April 9, 2017   On December 16, 1773, about 50 members of the Sons of Liberty, a colonial patriot group, boarded three ships anchored in Boston Harbor.
