Many of us can recall the atmosphere of the late ‘50s and ‘60s. A constant state of fear of atomic warfare permeated our lives. We had seen the devastation of the first bombs over Japan, and we could not get it out of our minds. We can remember the “shoe-pounding” of Nikita Khrushchev in the […]

The Church Still Stands for Excellence
When Christ promised to build His church, He promised it would be built upon the rock—Peter’s confession, “Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God” (Matt. 16:13). The church is built upon the solidarity of the Deity and perfection of Jesus Christ. She is a most glorious church because of her relationship with […]
When 2 Billion People Are Watching
Ninety-percent of all people deal with some level of stage fright. How do you feel when all eyes are on you? Do your palms get cold and clammy? Do you become nervous and anxious? Do you blush, tremble, shake, or feel nauseated? There is at least one stage where the vast majority of people feel […]
The Brilliant Frog
Living in a large lake in Wisconsin, a very clever bull frog anticipated the long, freezing winter.

Singing from the Heart
Do you actively participate in the songs that are led in worship? Do you really sing from the heart? Do you make it a priority to understand what you sing? Do you understand the importance of what you are doing when you sing? God has given us the command to sing when we gather together […]
“The Question Mark In The Sky”
On old episodes of the “Batman” TV series, people were often shown pointing to something in the nighttime sky. It was the silhouette of Batman, a call of distress designed to call the superhero to spring into action. (I’m not sure what they did if the danger occurred in broad daylight.) The James Webb Space […]
For some strange reason cultures all over the world have long had an obsession with snakes.
Of all creatures in the animal kingdom to worship, the serpent certainly doesn’t make logical sense for a plethora of reasons. The Bible opens with the craftiest beast of creation tempting the woman and successfully bringing about the destruction of mankind. The serpent didn’t have a great track record but somehow managed to become a […]
