Once again, our city has been struck with a snowstorm. The news channels today show the cars that were abandoned on the highways last night. Where do people go after they leave their cars? Do they hike down the highway until they come to an exit? Do they climb over the barriers and knock on […]
One of the dilemmas facing our city is the number of people suffering from mental illness. It has brought heartache to families and to our entire country. I realize that there is not one solution or that the solution is simple. But the Bible offers one explanation that is left out of the current discussion. […]
The recurring lockdowns and government restrictions during COVID cost business owners lots of money and resulted in many headaches. But we also experienced the limitations of science during that time. I’m not speaking of the failed attempts to isolate this virus and neutralize it. I’m speaking of science’s inability to provide answers to the questions […]
I normally don’t like to speak ill of various religious practices, because the issue is Jesus Christ and not working for salvation, but receiving Him and salvation as a free gift. But there are some that sound almost Christian but are actually far from it. Remember, Satan is after the souls of people. He doesn’t […]
There has been a debate for a long time on whether the rapture happens before, during, or after The Tribulation. I’m not going to die on this hill, but I thought I’d share my perspective. We are not supposed to argue, especially over the timing of future events, but it’s good to see if what […]

Be careful what church you go to. Some well-known pastors teach that God actually ordained sin to enter the world so He could show off His grace in forgiving a small percentage of people — and they teach this with a straight face. In fact, they teach that all the evil and horrific things that […]
I started thinking about mercy when, in my daily reading in Exodus 25, I read about the Ark of the Covenant. The Ark in the Most Holy Place was a box made of wood overlayed with gold. Inside it was the law God gave to Moses. The lid of the Ark was made of solid […]
Shortly after His triumphal entry in Jerusalem, “Jesus entered the temple area and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves.” (Matthew 21:12) For this, the chief priests and elders of the people called Him into question and asked, […]
It’s heartbreaking to see pictures of homes perilously hanging over empty spaces, the sand and dirt under them having been washed away. The recent hurricanes that have pummeled Florida’s coastlines are a clear demonstration of what Jesus said at the end of His sermon, “Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and puts them […]
