Welcome! I’m so glad you found your way here. I'll be blunt. Your eternity depends on what you do with Jesus. Reject him, and you’ll spend it in the lake of fire. Have faith in him, and you’ll spend it in heaven. There is no middle ground. You are either all-in or all-out. Half-heartedness won’t … Continue reading About That Coin…
I've been fascinated by the idea of creation lately. How did we come to being? What all is out there? The universe is so big that we don't really have a clue as to just how big it might be. There is a new telescope to be launched soon that will be far more advanced … Continue reading Creation
The test results came back positive, as I expected. I have COVID. What is this plague all about? Is it a natural phenomenon or something made by humans? Is it benign or evil in nature? At the time of this writing, I am in Day 3 of symptoms. It's been a like a nasty cold, … Continue reading I Have COVID.
Let's face it. The news is bleak. Pandemic. Inflation. Corruption. Violence. I'm no kid, and, to me, things seem to be getting worse. Maybe it is; maybe it isn't.

One stumbling block people have with Jesus is shame. While the gospel might sound alluring, their shame holds them back. Perhaps you are facing this today. If so, let me share the Word of God. Let's make sure we understand each other. Shame is universal. You aren't unique. Sure, your sin may or may not … Continue reading Shame
What do you think about fire and brimstone preachers? Curiously, I was drawn to one while in college. Incredibly, this street preacher is still at it. Brother Jed and his wife, Sister Cindy. I guess they have quite the social media following, mostly in sarcasm. That's OK. There will be a few who truly hear … Continue reading Turn and Live
Yesterday, I read a story about the sentencing of a murderer. I wonder about the wisdom of letting violent offenders free in just a few years. We have laws and punishments, yet nobody seems to enforce them. Consistency would be benefit everyone. Only God is consistent. His laws and punishment are firmly established and do … Continue reading Consistency
As a newly born-again Christian, I became involved with the Episcopal church. I was on fire for the Lord and eagerly shared all that I was learning with those in the church. Unfortunately, it all fell on deaf ears, and they eventually hated me. Mere Christianity I started a men's bible study that was surprisingly … Continue reading Deaf Ears
Looking for an interesting survey? Find out how they respond to, "How are you doing today?" You'll find almost everyone responds, "Good," or something like that. You would then assume that everything is OK. But, is it? Here's a sampling of US statistics that I pulled this morning. Anxiety 18%Depression 10%Alcohol Abuse 26%Marijuana Use 7%Social … Continue reading Everything is OK.
