Repentance
It is so easy to try to “fix” whatever ails us and to search out root causes for illegal immigration, wars in Europe and the Middle East, and the breakdown of the traditional family. Yet God’s Word tells us over and over through the prophets bold Old and New that repentance is what is sorely…

Wise Men Still Seek Him
Although we are ending on a troubled note this year following the October 7 massacre by Hamas and Israel’s self-defense, we should take heart. Our Savior God still loves us, each person is precious to Him, and He desires our fellowship. And this did not commence with the birth of Jesus. There are many references…

Hurricane Ian – Test or Judgment?

The “Race” Issue – A Distraction
I learned a new word this week from one of my African American sisters – “CAUdacity” which is an apparent colloquialism to describe arrogant white people.

Wade, state and local governments have gone…

Post-Christian America
Who can deny the rising lawlessness in the US and abroad? Who can deny the mounting domestic and international antagonism toward Christianity? I searched two well-known search engines several days ago for a Celtic Bible for an Irish friend. The first book it brought up (it wasn’t even a Bible) illustrated a cover and title…

Battle Lines Are Being Drawn
A powerful two-day conference was held July 20 and 21, 2022 in Arlington, Virginia. Sponsored by Dr. Jim Garlow and Rosemary Schindler Garlow of the “Well Versed” ministry in El Cajon, California, speakers ranged from pastors, former members of Congress and current legislators, businessmen, attorneys, theologians, entrepreneurs and physicians.

A Response to Christianophobia
An opinion piece in the New York Times last week unfairly thrashed Americans of the Christian faith who support the belief that life begins at conception. First – an inaccuracy. The Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade did not “rescind the reproductive rights that American women have enjoyed (emphasis mine) over the past…
